Ordered Marth, Falcon and Fox from B&H

Little weird how they charge to Paypal immediately upon placing the order, but I'll stop being suspicious once they arrive at my house
 
I got 2 orders of Marth, 2 orders of Villager, and 2 orders of Wii Fit Trainer with B&H.

I will give out each one for free in a raffle in here. So 6 amiibos total! Hopefully they fill these orders. But yeah, this will be great for the community if they do. Woot.
 
$51.96 on the line, but the order is placed! Charged immediately due to PayPal. It will all be worth it if I can even get one of them. ^^
 
Lol, I have 3 marths ordered. One from here, one from france, and another from entertainment earth ( and a villager to boot) that was ordered a month ago and hasn't been canceled yet

Nah
 
I can't wait for the cancellations. Still, hopeium is a hell of a drug.

If there are actually more wave 1 restocks coming alongside the wave 3s, then they probably aren't the only store getting them, no?
 
Got my confirmation email. Now lets wait and see how this goes. I imagine a lot of cancellations unfortunately, considering everyone Amiibo hunting jumped on to get rares from a small business out of New York. Would be amazing to be proven wrong though. :)

That's really awesome of you to do. Might enter for Villager just so I can have the Triforce of Rare Amiibo (assuming Marth arrives).
 
went to my local tru today and decided to ask just for kicks about a lucario pre order. she said that particular store decided not to do pre orders because of the whole wave 2 fiasco. so i might have a chance at a lucario if i get there when they open...assuming they even get them in.
 
Got an order in for Marth + Villager within a minute of it going up. Also got the EU version backordered on Amazon.it a couple days ago so hopefully at least one of them gets here.
 
I also ordered a few, I´ll display them with pride on my shop if they arrive x).

I paid with my father paypal account, since my card is at full right now!, I´m just waiting for his angry call any moment now.
 
Yeah, the fact that you can still buy every amiibo from them and check out this long after becoming available tells me there are going to be a LOT of cancellation emails.

The only time you think, "Man, if only the site was down."

I'll just budget around a missing $50 for the next three weeks. Not actually too long considering the possible result.

Not getting my hopes up at all sadly.

Expedited Shipping was free for orders $49 and higher. I totally would have thrown another amiibo in. Only $7 more than that.
 
Got a set of the holy trinity as well as Little Mac, Fox, and Pitt. Figured I might as well as catch up on those three while I was completing this. Now it's the waiting game and the pure shock if I actually get a box containing all of these figures in one place.

I'm surprised the website didn't crash minutes after checkout opened

Well I sort of stumbled upon the site having Amiibo's in general by chance, there has been no advertisements for it. Nor have I seen the site listed at cheap arse gamer at the time either. So depending on how may people look at this thread, one can assume that not a lot of people know about this site, or they tried ordering earlier and failed to know they had to wait until 6pm eastern due the Jewish custom. :/

Yeah, mine says 3 Day Delivery whereas the Saver shipping was saying like 7. I added another amiibo to get the Free Expedited Shipping. :P

Yeah I'd be interested to see if this all goes through. Here's hoping to does though and everyone gets their Amiibos. I wonder if the people at that website are surprised by that surge of buyers.

Pretty sure Japan is getting all of Wave 3 in one go at the end of the month.

I'm just waiting for Peach to go on clearance somewhere because she seems to be the most in stock amiibo ever.

pretty sure the stock varies from store to store, the target 3 minutes from my house only had 4 peaches, while having about 20 diddy kongs, for instance.

I'm more interested to know what other stores are getting shipments of Amiibos, as to whether this is just a start of more retailers getting shipments, or if Nintendo is vamping up production to meet demand, or what. After all those articles and people claiming that so many Amiibo's were being discontinued I'm interested to know where this is going.
I'm assuming that the store realizes in someway how popular of a product it is.

I think this is a good sign for people who just want their one amiibo they cant get, and bad for scalpers because this might be a sign that a lot of Amiibo's are coming back to stock. So I can imagine scalpers might be all over this only to find out that those figures aren't rare anymore, and if this store is anything like a certain Jewish owned store in my neighborhood, returns are impossible. xD
 
Is Rosalina actually a hard pre order to get or is that just a joking title? Because she's one of the few wave 3 Amiibo still available for pre order here.
 
Thanks Amiibros/gals got a Marth in fingers crossed!

In the US she is super hard to get at Target (retailer exclusive).
 
I did not opt in on that site. I just cant believe they can fulfill them. Maybe its because I already have my Trio so I am not willing to put faith in things ha. Good luck to all though, keep us updated either way.

It's a store exclusive in the US (or all of NA?) and has gone up for preorder like twice, at 5am, and sold out in under an hour. Most of amiibogaf in the US has not actually been conscious at moments when preordering her was possible.
