Constant busy signal but thanks.You should give them a call, there were about 30 people in line when I was there an hour ago, but the line stopped there. Might be some left.

Never got anything out of the CS people I tried. I don't really get how people were getting these huge discounts on their order, the reps I talked to were basically like "yeah we fucked up but thanks for being an Amazon customer." Any time I get something shipped by Amazon Logistics it's usually incredibly late or in some cases it never arrives. I wish you could pick who delivered your packages, but it would probably be too difficult with the fulfillment centers and all. I just wish they had the foresight to send an email before hand that it would be delayed, it's really dumb that I had to wait for the tracking to update the day it was released to know it was coming later.
Have you said, verbatim, "I would like a full refund of [whatever] for my inconvenience?"
Amazon will not voluntarily give you these huge discount. You have to demand them.
Pretty much. A few months back, when the PS4 Pro launched, the price dropped by about $60 a few weeks after the fact. I called to ask for a price adjustment, got nothing. Called, complained again, demanded the price difference, and got it pretty damn quickly.
FYI I just bought a Switch and Zelda at the Amazon Books in Seattle. They said they have enough stock of the console for another hour or so. Business was steady. Grey model only. Tons of other Switch stuff.
Thanks. Now I'm gonna cancel my prime membership and make sure they know why. Never preordering from Amazon again.Glad you were able to nab one. They really did have quite a few of them.
I canceled mine but my friend got his extra controller and game today with no system.
UPS said it'll be there monday.

Tracking says it's out for delivery since 9AM but it's already 3 and the CS replied to my original email saying it's coming on the 7th. I don't really get how all these retailers had stock but Amazon is struggling to fulfill pre-orders that most people probably put in the day it went up.
Yep. Same here... What a total clusterfuckAmazon finally e-mailed me an updated shipping date of.... TOMORROW!
But I'm still scared because it is coming USPS and i didn't think USPS brought stuff on Sundays?

I finally got my Switch.
In the end I had placed 2 orders. One back in Jan as soon as preorders went up , and one on Friday when I was pissed and saw I could order one with one day shipping and receive it over the weekend.
I ended up receiving the order I placed yesterday. The order I placed in January has yet to ship.
What the actual fuck, Amazon.
Going to try again. This time asking for a refund for the GC I purchased to pay for the Switch if they cannot provide anything more than they are investigating. I am not even sure if they can refund gift cards though.
They can.
They gave me a $60 refund to my gift card balance. Ended up using it towards an eshop card.
It's the same for me.Yay, a game and yet nothing to play it with. Thanks Best Buy! *Amazon shipped me the game.
I'm going to read the back cover blurb, and use my imagination to fill in what it must feel like actually experiencing this game of the generation contender. This is what people do with books right?

Any Amazon courier stories?
Phone says it's still on its way by 8pm tonight. No tracking or anything though.
My courier somehow found a way to destroy my package this morning en route....so good luck!
