So how fast are these amazon pre-orders going to sell out?

 

[TruSpindash]

Well the class I have during 2:00 got cancelled, which means I'm free to jump on the f5 wagon that will likely result in nothing of value being gained.

 

[Labrynian Rebel]

Can I get a link with Robin, Lucina and the girl inkling?

I am going to assume less than 5 minutes. Jigglypuff was up for that long, and that was an exclusive.

 

[The Finest Brew]

We're ***** aren't we? D;

We just have to have hope to pierce the despair! We can't give up! \o/

 

[LegendX48]

probably like 30 seconds considering 1-click ordering >.>

Stole from reddit user Henkaishi for people asking for links to various combinations:

Starting with the amazon link default: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aws/cart/add.html?&
Each item you add to cart is made of a short item number & quantity and needs to be separated from the next item with &.
ASIN.#inCart=itemStockNumber&Quantity.#inCart=1&
For example to add lucina as the first item in your cart and Robin as the second. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aws/cart/a...4&Quantity.1=1&ASIN.2=B00V86BRHU&Quantity.2=1
Amazon Item Numbers: * Lucina: B00V86BJV4 * Robin: B00V86BRHU * Charizard: B00V86BJX2 * Inkling Boy: B00VHWMKEY * Inkling Girl: B00VHWMJWC * Inkling 3-Pack: B00VHWMK44 * Wario: B00V86C4LS * Pac-Man: B00V86BRK2

It'll look something like this:

 

[RobFox64tm]

So do we just refresh the "add to cart" links until they say they are available?

 

[Jeff-DSA]

Wait, do we have an estimated time for the Amazon preorders? I'm about to go to lunch and I don't want to get screwed. This thread moves too fast to keep up while still working.

3 PM Est.

And I'm not going with the add to cart even though I have three that I need. I"m one clicking all the way.

 

[falconxcrunner09]

The rumor is at 3 PM EST, or about 41 minutes from now.

[Jawmuncher]

I won't be getting on this train but may the odds be ever in your favor amiiboGAF

 

[Attleborotaco]

Ive been camping out Lucinas Amazon page for like 4 days now. Shes the only one i want...

 

[kirby_fox]

Sigh. No way these will last the 30+ minutes I need them to.

If only I could take my break then and not now. Having them all locked down but ninja would be great.

Which sucks, because oddly enough a lot of my fave characters to play as are in this lineup...

 

[Cappa]

Wait, do we have an estimated time for the Amazon preorders? I'm about to go to lunch and I don't want to get screwed. This thread moves too fast to keep up while still working.

this is why the rumor started... this convo seems like a big joke so the chances of Amazon going up in 40 minutes are slim to none.

lmfao at that conversation

"i love you bro"



some of those reps are just like you and I so yeah who knows

 

[Jeff-DSA]

brb, going to inhale a lunch and get back before 3PM EST.

 

[theSlacker]

Does Amazon have a set limit on how many you can buy? Because if not, with these custom urls I do not see them lasting even one minute.

 

[Isotope]

Nothing's gonna happen at 3, huh. ;_;

 

[Sorceror12]

It's sad we are still fighting for wave 4 and part of the world already secured wave 5 and 6.

 

[Bass260]

Really, the one main Amiibo thread to community?

 

[Ignition365]

All of my convos with Amazon have been very robotic... so I call fakesies.

 

[BigBossJelly]

I won't be getting on this train but may the odds be ever in your favor amiiboGAF

All I could think of

 

[AdanVC]

Woahhh dat move of forum. I want Ness so bad.

 

[LegendX48]

We must believe!

 

[falconxcrunner09]

It's sad we are still fighting for wave 4 and part of the world already secured wave 5 and 6.

Its sad that the US & Canada make up 63% of total amiibo sales, yet we don't get as much compared to Europe and Japan.

 

[Lakerchick4life]

Amazon refs have no idea when items will appear on their site..they know when we all do..reminds me of when I purchased the PS4 on Dell's site(When it came out) wanted to get it from Dell since I had a 200 egift card from them. Kept on asking rep after rep when it will become available and each time got a different answer, 4am, 12 midnight, some would say they have no idea..if it appears today great, but I say the chances of it happening are about 1 percent, most of the reps I talked to from amazon have no idea what an amiibo is LOL

 

[Adamantum]

Wow, never had a convo like that with someone from Amazon. Didn't know they had dudebros as CSRs now.

Stole from reddit user Henkaishi for people asking for links to various combinations:

Thanks. Want to make sure I add 2 of each to cart. Also changed the affiliate link to my own.

 

[Frogstep]

Nothing's gonna happen at 3, huh. ;_;

Not with that attitude!

Seriously though, I hope these do go up so I can get Lucina and Robin taken care of. After missing Jiggs 3 times and Villager/Mac last night, I need a win!

 

[The12thGripper]

Moving the main Amiibo thread to community? Man, not cool.

 

[RootCause]

Custom url? Hahhahaha were not getting past the 20 second barrier.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I cringe every time I see people engage with CSRs unprofessionally.

 

[G0523]

About time. It only took 5 of these OTs to get there.

 

[Labrynian Rebel]

We are now family.

 

[Jobbs]

been camping this since it first showed up on amazon. non stop. around the clock.

 

[SFenton]

Preach.

 

[rjinaz]

Moving the main Amiibo thread to community? Man, not cool.

Probably inevitable especially with all the drama of late.

 

[SuperCambot]

The flight I'm on is scheduled to land at Amiibo Hour Zero. Toddlers, car seats, baggage claim... timing could not be worse. I already have an order from Best Buy, but the only way to ensure you get your order and to beat scalpers is with "scorched earth" purchasing and canceling at a later date. All I want is a sealed set and a few to actually use.

Is there a way to bequeath Amazon orders to Amiibros in need, or at !east give a heads-up that you are about to cancel?

 

[DarkKyo]

I've been camping planet earth until society, technology, and culture was advanced enough for Nintendo to emerge and Amiibos to be created so I could camp the Lucina one in the year 2015

 

[Curler]

What the hells a purin?

In Japanese, Jigglypuff is called Purin which is literally just "Pudding". You can even buy Japanese flan with "purin" labelled on the box.

One of the better Pokemon name changes.

 

[Jobbs]

I cringe every time I see people engage with CSRs unprofessionally.

I used to BE a CSR -- For Verizon. I worked in a gateway that dealt primarily with chronic callers. You get some real weirdos.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Well they moved all of them so it's fair. It was going to happen sooner or later especially considering the mass amount of them on the first page. One of the reasons I opposed different region threads since everyone comes in here anyway at some point. Not a big deal though the community is made and will stick around, most people should have the thread subscribed anyway.

 

[theSlacker]

So do we got a countdown till the meltdowns?

 

[That Damn Kid]

Anyone remember this Pokeball Burger King had many years ago

Now I need another for Jigglypuff!
