They will see the sales decline once they're done with the Super Smash Bros Amiibo. Until they release a The Legend of Zelda or a Pokemon line that is.

I'll be chilling once smash is done.
Won't need anything but Zelda and fire emblem. Along with some obscure(to the general public) Nintendo games like X and what not. Also can't forget daisy.

So glad Im not big on pokemon

 

[Jailer of Hope]

Just got my Shiek, Took Link, and Bowser package from Best Buy!

 

[Insaniac]

I don't think you offended anyone here since we know that you are buying them for GAFFER whom didn't had chance to snatch one for themselves due to situations.

I'm guilty for buying several Amiibo because my friends asked me to pick up some for them since they work all day. It don't bother me if people are going to look at me as scalper because I know that those amiibo are going to be in right hands who actually want it for collections.

Go to the store and ask them

 

[Byron Bluth]

You would think people would get tired about arguing over scalpers/resellers.

It's not illegal and posting about it doesn't seem to violate GAF TOS as far as I can tell. Just know if you do post about it, people will likely turn hostile on you. I think most of us agree that people that buy a couple extra are fine, but people that buy out several or a store's whole supply are a-holes. Not sure what else needs to be said. Nobody is convincing anybody of anything.

I got yelled at because I keep mine sealed as a collection that might be worth something years and years from now (not in the sense I would sell them but that keeping them sealed increases their value). Just like any other collectible item I have ever bought. From comics to games to toys.

Smh...

Got an email from amazon saying my sonic is due march 2nd

Said the same for my Bowser a while ago. If I pick up a Bowser on my trip to Gamestop on the 13th I'll probably cancel my order from Amazon.

 

[MicH]

So about Amazon UK/Germany/France etc...

Are they all sold out of Meta Knight based on pre-order alone or do they just not have him in stock yet, and thus aren't selling him?

Not out until later this month, but all Amazon pre-orders are gone

 

[Ludist210]

Oh yeah, also...

I can see why people might confuse the two characters. They do look slightly similar. Blue-ish dress and all...

 

[Mononoke]

From top of my head, Huelen bought 5 Rosalina & Luma from few Target store and posted a picture of 5 Rosalina Amiibo without explaining those 5 amiibo for.

Chris got all over him about it, and he decided to refute it later on.

Ah.

Let me get this out of the way real quick before I get into my thoughts. I do not like, telling people how to spend their money. Or what to do with the things they buy. I've always personally felt uncomfortable doing that. I feel as long as someone didn't break the law, if they followed the rules, if they paid for something with their money, then they now have the right to do what they want with the item they own.

Having said that...my view on scalping has always been that, it's Nintendo's fault for not supplying enough (they have especially done this on purpose, to artificially create demand). Scalping only exists because people WANT to pay for something Nintendo isn't selling.

So my views have always been that, ultimately Nintendo shares the most blame for doing a poor job supplying things, and not meeting demand (and again, in this case, we know they are doing it on purpose. So it's even more scummy).

I myself, have never been a fan of scalping. I think it's sleazy. Not the idea of selling something you paid for, for whatever price. That I get. But it's the whole MARKET behind it, where they go out and exploit the lack of supply, and start cornering the market. This is where I can see the overlap happen with people that buy extra in general. So a scalper that goes to a store and buys all 30, to me that is totally fucked. The store is stupid for allowing them to buy all 30. But morally, that is really fucked up to everyone else that is waiting in line. It's just to me, really no shame.

But I can understand the overlap. Because there are two aspects to scalping people hate. I. That they buy up a bunch of stock, which then takes them out of the hands of people that wanted to buy them. II. They make a second hand market and sell them for 3x the price.

The problem is, I. Buying up a bunch, is something that someone that isn't a scalper could do. Like let's say you just want a bunch of those amiibos to collect. You've gone and bought 10 of them, and now 9 other people can't buy one. Or if someone goes and buys 3 of them, because they want to give them to friends or family, or someone they know that might need one.

Even if the INTENT behind what they are doing isn't as sleazy as a scalper, they are still effectively taking away multiple units that someone else could have gotten. So I do get the argument (which is why I myself, feel a bit iffy on what I've done).

I've always made sure to follow the rules and be courteous. So let's say I go to Target. I'm first in line. If they have a 1 per customer rule, I will ONLY get 1 (I won't have my fiance act as a second person and get 1 at that store, as I know other people in line are there to get one). IF a store didn't have a 1 per limit, I still would only get 1 because I would see that line behind me, and wouldn't do that to them.

It gets trickier when it's online or a store that isn't having a release. Let's say I walk into a random TRU, there is no line. They just have shit on sale. I might get 2 Toon Links. I almost never buy more than 2 per store. If it's online, I only buy ONE (if it's a pre-order or something that just went on sale). But if it's something that isn't a pre-order or not something that just went on sale, I usually will buy whatever the limit is set. I've never gone over 3 though (even if there wasn't a limit set).

Sorry for the long wall of text.

TLDR; I get the debate. I'm not angry or upset, or offended. I actually understand how it could be seen as bad to buy extras, even if you intend to give them away free, or trade, or give them to other people at cost. You are still taking away units that someone else could have gotten.

I myself, feel torn on me buying 3 Rosie's on Target.com. I went with what the companies limit was. But I dunno. I wonder if I'm a bad person. I wonder if I'm just as bad as a scalper (well maybe NOT as bad, because I'm not selling them. But eh). But it's something I'll think about. My intent has always been to help others, and make them happy. I guess in some way, I've always thought that what I was doing, was kind of anti-scalping, in that I'm helping others obtain things without having to turn to scalping. But I do get the problematic nature of buying extras. Something I'll think on.

That just makes the ones I'm missing:

Mario

Donkey Kong
Luigi
Diddy Kong

And I've skipped preorders on:

Kind of think I should just go for a full set now, especially considering I want all of the unannounced ones other than Dr Mario anyway.

But I have Mario, Luigi and Peach from the Super Mario line preordered already :\

Nah, this post. But I guess it was about HUELEN. I just missed his original post on it. Even though it wasn't about me, I'm still kind of curious if people overall think it's morally wrong to buy extras to trade or give away free (if they see it the same as scalpers).



oi.

Always a tricky subject. Because, at the end of the day, it's a free market. People have the right to spend their money how they want. And it's really on Nintendo to supply better, and stores to have better sales policies. But when we have a community, and there is kind of that debate about scalpers going in and buying a fuck ton of extras (basically exploiting Nintendo's low stock) just to flip for 3x the price.

I can see that overlap of people buying extras to hoard, or in my case give away free.

Well, if I have ever offended anyone by buying extras, I am really really really sorry.

It's gotten to a point where I don't care. With people claiming rare Amiibos we may as we'll be scalping at this point. I've been buying multiples since day 1. People have an issue with friend reservation or even selling 1 Amiibo. At this point, meh. I can't find myself caring about scalpers or people that reserve for friends. It's all wrong and it's all right.
Just buy yer toys. Oh can only be so moral in an immoral world...also first world problems.

after seeing a bunch of you guys say you were going to be showing up to Target at like 5am yesterday I just said "ah fuck it I'm probably not gonna get a Rosalina," but I casually strolled into Target on my way home from work today and bam

there was 3 or 4 more Rosalinas on the shelf and at least one Shiek. (Delray Beach, FL)

What to do, what to do....

I've started backing down and only getting the characters that I know that I'll use. I've sold one (Marth) and have two more I'm hoping to sell in bundle (Diddy, Pikachu for $20 shipped). No more Pokemon, no Toon Link, and a few others.

 

[pete_clarf]

Maybe I mis-read what the guy said (I didn't see his original post whenever he made it). But he did mention 5, and I said I got 5 Rosies on release. So I just assumed maybe he meant me. If not, my bad.

I did only buy 1 per store (had to go to two Targets that day). And I bought 3 when they sold them online for 40 min (as 3 was the limit). To be clear, I'm not upset or angry. I can understand the debate against buying extras. People complain about scalpers going in and buying multiples (which then cut them out of the hands of others).

So what is different between THAT and someone buying extras to give away free to others, or trade. Well, the difference is the scalper is taking those to flip at 3x the price. So the end result is different (what they do with them). But the issue of someone getting more than ONE..is still the same for the person buying extras for friends.

My personal stance on that has always been, to always follow the rules. If a store has 1 per person, only do one per person. Even though I had someone with me that could have been another person, I still didn't have them get a second one, because other people were in line. We drove to another store that had no line, and had a Rosie, and got the 2nd one. Then found out target.com was selling them for 40 min, so I bought whatever the limit was.

In the case of Target.com, I feel everyone has the same chance as I did to order. It was up for 40 min and there was no site crash. I didn't buy more than what they said I could.

And yet, I can still see the problem some have with it. Really, for me. I've just gone way out of my way to spend money and time to get extras for others. And I've done this 100% free. I never charge anyone for shipping or for the amiibo itself. So basically, I've only gotten extras just to put them in the hands of others that could not get an amiibo they needed. I just want ONE (don't even care what region) of each Amiibo, as I'm opening them and putting them in my display.

But if the conversation starts turning towards that being morally/ethically wrong, I would rather just not do it. As I'm spending my time and money on it. And eh. I don't want to be viewed as a morally/ethically bad person doing something just as bad as scalpers. That doesn't feel good.

Just my thoughts on it. Basically, I can see the point being made. I have no idea if he was talking about me. If he was, I'm really sorry for buying 5 Rosalina's. Just know all 5 of them will go to someone for free (that needed it). I only bought 1 per store and never took more than that. I followed the rules. But if that's still a bad thing to do, then I can't say anything than sorry.

Someone was saying yesterday (and I agree with them) that it's funny how people are complaining about scalpers when they are buying extras themselves with the intent of trading it for another rare amiibo. In many cases they're buying a few extras when someone else in the area won't get a chance now. It was amidst all of the people yesterday who said that they have an extra Rosalina amiibo and would be willing to trade it for a Little Mac or Lucario or someone who is probably a lot rarer than Rosalina. Basically acting like they're doing a big favor for someone when, in the end, it was all about benefiting themselves. I don't think anyone said that doing that is as bad as scalping... just maybe a few levels away.

What you are doing is totally different. You're spending your own time and money on extras and giving them away 100% free. I don't think anyone could see anything wrong with that. I've also seen tons of people selling their extra amiibos for cost. That is cool too!

Here's my hierarchy of being an amiibo dick (note: only 1 and 2 are dick moves)

1) scalping
2) buying a bunch of extras hoping that you can trade 1:1 for something better.
3) legit trades (like Villager for WFT or something like that).
4) buying extras to sell to people at cost.
5) giving them away.

So my views have always been that, ultimately Nintendo shares the most blame for doing a poor job supplying things, and not meeting demand (and again, in this case, we know they are doing it on purpose. So it's even more scummy).

I feel like this is accurate. There is no way retailers would actively cancel pre-orders if not forced to. Probably Nintendo went "We can supply 200 MM XL's to your store" and then go "Actually, it is only 50 we can get you."
The supply issue seems to be only a NA issue since EU and JPN has no issues getting the figures.

Difference is, you give them away to someone who may really want them. Scalpers just give them to the highest bidder, no matter who the person is, and that person could be a scalper themselves, who just turns around and sells that same Rosa they bought for higher than they bought it for, and the cycle would just go on and on. I mean, it could happen either way, but you giving them free is 10x better than selling them for $50-$60. That's not hard to see at all... Also, I'm pretty sure you don't try and take them out of ppl's hands either, lol.

Kind of new to the importing of Amiibo from Europe. How much should I expect to pay for shipping?

After trying to buy one on amazon.de I got to the check out screen to an ~$50 shipping charge. Is this normal? Is this why folks buy several amiibo in one order?

Trying to get a Villager for my partner. Don't mind paying around $30 for the figure itself, but if the shipping is $50 I might as well grab one on eBay.

Maybe you are just reading the charges wrong? I have a Lucario and WFT shipping from them, and my total is ~$50 with shipping being half of that.

Edit: Villager isn't available from Amazon.de, so you may be trying to buy from a 3rd party reseller. Kind of surprising though since a lot of them don't ship overseas.

Villager is out of stock from Amazon themselves so it's probably the third party seller having the high shipping fees.

Mononoke don't feel bad about anything you've done, you're giving away extras to AmiiboGAF which is about the most honorable thing you can do. The only thing you should feel bad about it is that Elise avatar, switch back to Palutena damn it.

I bought a few extra Rosalina and sold them but due to her high availability here I don't feel bad about it. Anyone who wanted a Rosalina here could easily have gotten one.

 

[hutna]

Maybe you are just reading the charges wrong? I have a Lucario and WFT shipping from them, and my total is ~$50 with shipping being half of that.

Do you choose one of the sellers, or just add it to your cart from the amazon.de page for the amiibo?

I chose one of the sellers.

I am pretty sure I read the check out screen correctly: the amiibo was 29.99 euro and the shipping was like 49.99 and it came to nearly 90USD.

 

[Mononoke]

Nintendo is going to see the sales decline once they try and shove nothing but Mario characters down our throats.

lol

I kind of wished that sales would drop off in the back half the Smash Line. Would have been great if Waves 4-6 (or however many waves will be left), had a major shift in sales. Because a lot of folks just want the Amiibos to play in their game, or to just casually collect (they don't care about rarity or making money).

So it would be funny if people got tired of Amiibos (how long it took to come out), and how shitty Nintendo has handled their release (with lack of supply, artificially creating demand, terrible release dates, lack of communication).

Would make collecting for those that want to finish their Smash line a breeze. Because I don't REALLY care about these outside of them being used in my game, or just having 1 of each to display. I would love nothing more than these just being available everywhere. If the demand bottomed out. If there was no rare ones anymore.

At least give them bad feedback.

Give them bad feedback for you agreeing to pay a price for something? Did they some how trick you to open up your wallet? That's not how feedback works...

I get your point though, but ultimately if people don't like scalping they need to prove it by refusing to buy from scalpers. Best way to stop scalpers is to make it not worth their time.

I don't want to disparage HUELEN since I don't think he intended to come off so badly but he had a post basically bragging about hoarding Rosalinas. To be fair to him he didn't say what he was going to do with them but maybe he should have.

Not only did I not brag my haul (I just like Dark Of The Night too much), but my next post listed where all the Amiibo where going; I do have an extra Rosie if anyone wants to trade for it or buy at cost+shipping.

I was merely wondering if anyone else was able to get high amounts of figures who was looking for them.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

Wow.

So the thirst is going to be real for her then. Just give it a month or two when people realize they could never get her. Maybe she will get a spot in the new Holy Trinity next to Shulk.

Basically, just pre-order everything. Nintendo's got to be laughing. "Won't buy our system? Fine. We'll force you to buy our toys!!! (insert evil maniacal laugh)"

[IntelliHeath]

There are many characters Amiibo I wanted from Smash line up but the biggest one I really want is Duck Hunt Amiibo.

I gotta to have it but for few reasons, my gut is telling me that they are not going to make Duck Hunt Amiibo. They are going to make Duck Hunt Amiibo-Cards, so that would be a huge disappointment for me.

 

[TheOmegaSpartan]

Hello all. Today was a good day. I just received Sheik from BB and also Stitch because I like his sculpt and he's awesome.

Seriously, you may have your reservations on the art style of the DI line but damn do their figures look great. Infinity figures are a bit larger than amiibo and Disney made use of that extra size with proportioned looks. If amiibo were just as big as Infinity figures, some of the realistic proportioned characters might not have fat fingers.

Also, Lucario shipped from TRU (he's be my second Lucario). I only need Toon Link but will pass. I have him on Amazon preorder but he will not ship until March. My wallet can use the break as February will be my most costly month. On top of the remaining Wave 3 amiibo, I have an order from HLJ coming and a Premium Format Wonder Woman, too. I'm pretty much broke.

FYE stores (Only FYE that sell games) are offering preorders for Wave 4 in United States.

My Sheik and Toon Link from Best Buy came in! The cat also photobombed my picture lol.

The box for Sheik unfortunately came bent. Not cool Best Buy, not cool. I'm taking them out anyway so not the end of the world

That explains it. Forgot Villager was out of stock from Amazon themselves. Yeah if you are buying from a 3rd party seller you probably would get hosed on pricing.

Oh ok. Thanks for the help.

Damn, looking like resellers are my only option for now then.
