I've had some good luck so far!
 
I actually wish all stores were releasing them on the same day the way Best Buy is (exception of Pit and Falcon since they were delayed). If ally he stores did this, we wouldn't be running around like animals.

I hope they do this again for Wave 3, and I'll go there on that exact date and get them.
 
I'm still fairly certain Rosalina isn't Sold out and just hasn't offically been able to be preordered yet. Both chances before were just glitches at least according to the CS reps I talked too earlier today (and yesterday.)

It's a fact is not sold out, its just not allowing pre-orders.

Articles that are actually sold out say "Sold out online"
 
What's with the Villagers and WFTs that were found at Walmart a few pages back? Seems like there were too many there to have simply been forgotten about, could they have been restocked already?
Honestly I doubt it was a restock. They probably forgot them in the back... that walmart is pretty dumb. I price match a 3D world Wii U bundle for 60$ a few weeks ago.
 
Jeez, 10,000+ posts already lol

I know that but so many people I see keep using those words and I can't spreading of false information when it comes to stuff like this. I have all the available amiibos(Including Pit and Capt. Falcon) except a locked down Rosalina and I don't want to feel like I missed her cause I know I haven't.

You n me both. I got reload every loading the page every 5 seconds. Oddly enough a few minutes the find in store link was available on the non-mobile site don't know why that was.... and I've check the site several times a day for over a month when it was a rumor that Rosalina would be exclusive I've had every amiibo preordered within less than an hour of them first becoming available I figured as soon as these things were announced they would be kinda difficult to come by for awhile and sadly it looks like I was right :(

Well, misinformation is a good thing for us, since a lot of people will just give up and wouldn't try to get it.

I'll sure as hell sleep every night at 3am for Rosalina.
 
Can't decide on sellers on eBay or a European Amazon to buy my Marth and Villager. Price is probably going to be about the same. I just want them.

I paid the money to order my villager from amazon.de just so the scalpers wouldn't get my money. I don't mind paying a little more, I just refuse to pay that extra to a scalper.

I'm still banking on Villager coming back to America in like March. Worse case, I'll pick up a similar Amiibo when the inevitable Animal Crossing Wii U game comes out.
 
Anyone know a place to order online that...


1. Allows at least orders of 4

2. Allows for free returns

3. Has some buyer protection

4. Can change shipping address after order is placed but before product arrives.

Oh no you didn't.

To be fair I highly doubt HUELEN is a scalper, just based on what I know from his previous posts here.
That's right, I'm not a scalper. I just wanna know if anyone can help me out with my questions, that is all. Wanna get a good Rosie after all.
 
Fellow Canadians..
Does anyone else have pending amazon.ca orders for wave 2? I have Luigi estimated for Dec 31 but no dates for Pit, Diddy or Captain Falcon
 
So buying from Amazon.de they will automatically deduct whatever import fees and stuff right? I don't mind it taking a few weeks to get here.
 
If I go to Toys R Us and I see Captain Falcon or Pitt I'm going to get them and sell them to you guys for THE PRICE WHAT IT IS - I need no profit.

We should do this together and fuck the scalpers.
 
Wife is awesome, she grabbed Diddy Kong and Luigi for me while I was at work.

At first she wasn't on board with Amiibos but then she saw them in person and is now a fan.

Same here except that I have Luigi estimated for January 9th. Hopefully I get it in stores before. -_-

Same here. I found Little Mac locally. I bought Zelda from Amazon.ca and they shipped it already. I have a pre-order with them for the other 4 of wave 2 (Luigi, Diddy, Falcon, Pit). I selected the option to group my items to save on shipping. Luigi shows a release date of December 31 and the other 3 don't show release dates at all so I'm guessing the hold up is Luigi. As soon as they'll get him they'll ship my order. What I find strange is that some people have apparently received their Luigis already.
 
Welp apparently Wave 3 amiibo are selling out at Bestbuy.com ... I had most preordered already but was waiting for some reward certificates to come through before I made my next purchase, so it looks like I missed out on Sonic.

Welp I just placed an order for the other 3 I needed to do (minus Rosalina of course), so... at least I have one to hunt down in February unless something comes up.

My Diddy is in Transit.
Luigi - Dec 31st
Little Mac - Delivered

Posting again from last page:

Subtotal: EUR 63,00
Packaging & Delivery: EUR 16,06
Total excluding VAT .: EUR 79.06
Attributable VAT .: EUR 0.00
Total: EUR 79.06
Advance payment of import charge: EUR 3.15
Grand total: EUR 82,21

I ordered Marth, WFT, Villager, Rosalina and Lucario. Different packaging be damned. If Canada doesn't want my business, I'll take it somewhere else.
 
Anyone else notice the prices for these have doubled on Amazon? Not just the rare ones and not just from private sellers. Link is $24.99 FROM AMAZON. What the hell man? Are all of these things headed toward being rare?

Oops nvm they are fulfilled by Amazon but still sold by 3rd parties.

Amazon just seems to have issues with nintendo.
They seem to be one of the last places to ever get stock in from them.
 
Unfortunately, he's kinda sparse/expensive right now. Honestly the lowest I can find him for right now is $50 on Amazon.

The retail price is 42.99, I bought two in wholesale and they costed me 32.24, without taking shipping into consideration. I could pm you a pic if you want x), I wish I had ordered more, I sold them intermediately for $75 (I import, so that also gets a fee) and people won´t stop asking about them since one of them is waiting in my shelf waiting to be picked by the guy who paid for it.

They are impossible to get at wholesale price right now =(
 
Yeah if this Marth/Villager thing goes smoothly I will no longer worry about not getting the ones I want. I'm opening and using them anyway so the packaging is of little concern to me.
 
You'll fall to temptation soon enough. Come to the import side. We sleep at night instead of hitting refresh at 3 am in the morning.

It's getting to that point.
Only thing holding me back is I just know i'm going to order and then they'll magically appear all around me by the time I receive them.

I did this with WFT and no one was interested (Charging only packing, cost, and shipping), I'm willing to do it again, but I don't think most people are comfortable doing this here.
 
So if I wake up in the middle of the night and Rosalina is in stock at Target again I'll grab a few to pass around Gaf. Hope anyone else awake might do the same. Good night Gaf.

I'd be comfy doing that. I buy/sell/trade on plenty of other forums why not add this one too the list but currently I don't need anything except Rosalina. But I'd gladly buy to sell some here if people want/are interested. Would set it up in a heartbeat.

Yep, this is how it should be. I already grabbed on for another gaffer. If it's available again not sure I wanna risk getting my order cancelled by doing another. Hope we can get plenty to pass around though. <3

Don't worry, it'll probably happen in like 2 days.

Because I just ordered them myself and they shipped out, so there's no going back...and with my luck, Play Asia won't let me cancel mine and then send 2 more that I won't be able to sell for what I paid for them to get here.

Yeah as my post above states I'd be down for doing this in heartbeat I love collaborative buying forums I buy and trade on many different forums steelbooks/anime/game collector sites/deal forums/etc...
