I've discussed this with Cyan and the people who purchased from PygeHD through PM. You should seek a refund immediately. Based on all the things in that post, they may even face legal trouble.

I'm sorry all this had to happen in Best OT. Amiibo thirst really brings out the drama. In other news, we're almost to the next OT, so it's title suggestion time!

Hot damn that thing turned into a mess quickly. I missed that day but going back and reading through it was crazy. I did not think that kind of thing would happen in here, as close as everyone works with each other.

If we're talking OT titles, I'll put one in.

I would say this one if we hadn't already done that joke, so I'll vote for the first one.

The amusing thing is is that Amazon is probably the one place that could announce the exact time they were putting up their orders, giving everyone a chance to be online and checking at that time, and not crash from it. But they won't. Shits gonna go up when I'm not looking after weeks of refreshing and I'm going to rage out.

Yep, if they can stay up during BF, they can survive amiiboggedon. I don't know what's taking the so long.
The super Mario preorders came up at a reasonable time, I just hope I'm able to get my Lucina in.

It was 10 days from the time the placeholders went up to the time they sold them.

We are now on day 21 for this wave. It's insane. These come out in just over a month which is even more insane since Amazon has never pushed amiibo preorders this close to release.

The wait is killer. I'm not taking any chances on the next wave. I'm just preordering everything when it goes up on the other amazons. Btw are you on the line thing? What sacrifice do I have to do in order to get in? I don't want to miss out anymore. :(

does anyone know at what time does Amazon( non US) usually puts Amiibo on?
I want that wave 5 preorder out of the way as soon as possible.

Seems to be around 2pm MST.

But Amazon is not exactly following patterns with this wave. I expect 3am.

I just keep blaming Nintendo. It's insane how every retailer, including giants of the industry, have issues with these.

Maybe they're still being vague with how many they can provide or amazon isnt a priority for them.

PSA for anyone that pre-ordered Wave 4 from FYE:

FYE is no longer going to be carrying video games in-store and this unfortunately extends to amiibo figures as well. :(
If you already pre-ordered any Wave 4 amiibo from FYE, you can get your deposit back by bringing in your receipt.

I had all 6 Wave 4 figures pre-ordered there and just got my deposit back on Saturday.

I have that one still, but it's in the same boat as "Pretty much pays for the Apple Watch": ends up outdated by the time the new thread comes around.

My wallet is super paranoid for the next few weeks. It feels so unusual to have any of these things preordered, let alone all but Greninja.

These are my favorites:

I think it's too early for Mewtwo and Zero Suit Samus references.
