Holy shit I got one!

And they're coming to Bellevue so I don't need to drive to Seattle!

 

[jmizzal]

the fuck...hoarding those for promotion is kinda scummy Amazon

Well gamestop/thinkgeek hoarding them just to bundle them with crap nobody wants for a high price

 

[HarkenSlash]

Got my order in for LA.

 

[ValkyrUser]

Cool... sold out while I was trying to get the webpage to load. Thanks, Amazon.

 

[Alfredo]

There's a truck 20 minutes away from me, but I've already stopped caring about the NES Classic. If they do this for the SNES Classic, though...

 

[Wingfan19]

Just got one in Bellevue as well. Can't pick it up till 3:30 though.

 

[Tron 2.0]

I got one in LA. Kind of in shock at how easy that was to order. Going to head to the Grove at 11am to pick it up.

 

[CloudyTuba]

Wow, I'm going to have an NES classic? That's unexpected. Got my order in.

 

[WordAssassin]

I got the notification, got one in cart, went to pay, for some reason they needed me to reenter my card info, and while I did that it sold out.

I was crushed.

Came here to see if anyone got one, saw to keep trying the app because it was crashing.

GOT ONE

Fuck yes. I think this is really shitty and weird that so many retailers apparently held back stock for promotions (GameStop and Amazon, how many others will pop up through the year?) but I can't complain too much since I got one for MSRP!

Thanks for keeping my dream alive and telling me to keep trying GAF

 

[ZiggyPalffyLA]

Got one in LA, its at the Grove.

Same for me, I don't wanna drive to the Grove lol

It's gonna be crazy there

 

[TrojanAg]

Was able to get one in LA

If you got an order in, does that mean it will be held for you? Or is it first come first serve?

 

[BlondeTuna]

I got one!

 

[WordAssassin]

If you got an order in, does that mean it will be held for you? Or is it first come first serve?

It charges you, so I assume it holds until 5pm

 

[mcfrank]

Got one in LA. Grove is on my way to where I was going anyway.

 

[Tron 2.0]

If you got an order in, does that mean it will be held for you? Or is it first come first serve?

Pretty sure it's held for you. The confirmation message and email seem to indicate that. I'm just getting there right at 11 because I have a wedding shower to attend later in the day.

 

[vitalogy11]

holy cow, I think it's real. Going to go pick it up now

 

[Fox Mulder]

Fuck this is stupid.

 

[SephCast]

Got one for me and my in laws in LA!

 

[joesmokey]

Well I guess I'm going to The Grove today. Thanks OP.

 

[Shady859]

Nice score!! I had no idea this Treasure Truck existed until I saw it a few weeks ago in Cincinnati driving around. Signed up for notifications and it hasn't been back since...

 

[Adam Blue]

Got one in Dallas!

 

[dallow_bg]

Got one in Dallas!

Is there a wait?

 

[Beartruck]

Are they only there today? Is there any other time I can pick it up?

 

[nakedeyes]

Seattle was sold out in 10 mins. Jesus!

 

[StarBlazers1]

Just Got one in Los Angeles!

 

[Reptars Revenge]

Thanks OP, I didnt want one but had tons of friends in Chicago who did. Crazy.

 

[Shady859]

There's a truck 20 minutes away from me, but I've already stopped caring about the NES Classic. If they do this for the SNES Classic, though...

I'm gonna be that guy but...............buy one and sell it to pay for the SNES Classic and a Switch.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

Supposedly got one in ATL, going to pick it up now. Will post pics (if it's real).

 

[Beartruck]

Any GAF chicago guys heading that way? I cant make it there by 5...

 

[NeOak]

Seattle was sold out in 10 mins. Jesus!

Most people there are already signed up for the notifications.

People in the other cities have more luck because seems it is the first time in those.

Any GAF chicago guys heading that way? I cant make it there by 5...

I think you need your phone with the app to pick it up. I may be wrong.

 

[Vectorman]

Wow, easiest opportunity to get this thing ever. I was planning to be up in LA anyways.

 

[kitchenmotors]

I’m going right now.

They give you a QR code that you could send to someone.

 

[beelulzebub]

Got one in LA. Grove inbound right now. Thanks OP!

I am here. I am signed up for the notifications already. I saw the text 10 mins after it was sent and they were sold out, is what I'm saying.

 

[TheAggroCraig]

So... if I have friends in Houston and I'm able to order this can I just send them a screenshot of my transaction (a QR code)? Or is there more to picking it up than that?

 

[mcfrank]

He is saying Seattle has a lot of treasure truck users. Other cities are new to treasure truck so there isn't a built in audience.

 

[shindoku21]

Well now I have to go to The Grove in LA. Traffic god have mercy on me, I have other plans today.

 

[kulapik]

He knows that. He's from Seattle lol

 

[nakedeyes]

This guys gets me was just pointing out it was gone in 10 or sooner.

 

[NeOak]

[TrojanAg]

For those of you going to The Grove, let us know when you find the truck and where it is. I'm assuming that it'll be parked at the Farmers Market lot since I can't think of where else they'd have it.

 

[mrk8885]

the fuck...hoarding those for promotion is kinda scummy Amazon

It's a whole lot less scummy than thinkgeek / GameStop holding onto them to sell you marked up merchandise you don't want.


Yea, it's a promotion. But it's not being marked up. It's just a fun event.

 

[jviggy43]

Op I love you. Just snagged myself one.

 

[mcfrank]

La still in stock, just bought another one with my moms account.

 

[Beartruck]

I’m going right now.

PM'ed you.

 

[Soi-Fong]

Chicago here. I'm out in the burbs, but a friend in Chicago showed my QR code and he was able to pick up my order as well as his no problem.

I was honestly expecting them to refuse, but awesome to hear my friend had no issues.

 

[lobdale]

Snagged one in Dallas no prob, bunch of my friends got em too. NEAT

 

[molnizzle]

Where is it in the app?

WTF!?
