That reminds me. I promised somebody here a Jiggly. Guess I better pm them the bad news.

 

[Draconestra]

Yesasia just canceled my Villager pre-order due to stock issues.

 

[rjinaz]

Somebody contacted Target and this what the rep said:

Rep: I checked your order and see that your order was cancelled since we sent an email describing a shipment delay that required your approval and the new delivery date wasn't approved from your end and hence this order was cancelled.

I never got that email nor did that person. Not in my junk mail either.

At this point I fully expect my Jigglypuff to get cancelled because I was insanely lucky to get it in the first place. I found out about them going on sale about half an hour after they sold out, but I hit the Express Checkout button just for the heck of it and somehow it worked. I just keep expecting them to eventually realize this and give my order the axe lol

 

[Dragoshi1]

My Jiggypuff hasn't been canceled yet, nor has my Girl Inkling from Walmart.

They never canceled my Gold Mario either, how many Jiggypuffs are you guys ordering at once?

I ordered two and thankfully they're safe for now and I used Apple Pay to check out faster. Honestly, I got super lucky with that order and I'm scared it'll cancel.

 

[G0523]

lol if only we had a nickel each time this gif's been posted ;p

Here's some new ones:

And of course (Sorry for the meh quality): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYX3vJnD2-E

i think if YesAsia canceled my Wave 4 preorders, i'm quitting for good.

The order canceled on me was for 2.

 

[Shauni]

Some of you guys just seem to have the worst luck. I've not had a single canceled order for amiibos since I've started buying them.

 

[spindashing]

Wow, the Gamestop that I frequent actually had Marth instock yesterday. I should have tried my luck!

Edit: But they only had two from what the rep told me.

 

[ZealousD]

Yesasia just canceled my Villager pre-order due to stock issues.

We all knew this was coming.

They didn't cancel my WFT, though.

 

[Zonic]

Wow, the Gamestop that I frequent actually had Marth instock yesterday. I should have tried my luck!

Edit: But they only had two from what the rep told me.

Two seems to be the most common number, as that's how many mine got (the second one was gone when I went to pick the one I placed on hold).

.....not sure WHY such a small number, but maybe it'll be like Amazon & we'll see more randomly appear.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Sounds like the average is two for every store. Will check this afternoon since I need to see about my Ike anyway.

 

[kirby_fox]

Nothing from target on my end yet. I was able to get in on the second round fairly early.

Is demand high enough for everyone now that you expect to have 30+ people in line? I think it's just now getting there around here, I didn't see anyone for Rosalina.

I have hopes of walking in to get a Greninja myself, but not too high hopes. I find it crazy that you may have to choose which exclusive you get...

lol two. wtf Nintendo

 

[Jawmuncher]

Rough math but if indeed every store got two that's like 12,200 Marths.

 

[RobFox64tm]

I can't even sign in to my Target account to check the status of my orders. I guess a lot of folks are right now or something.

 

[RootCause]

*Checks Amazon*

Okay that just hurts...could have used that extra money for something else.

Well, at least the hunt is over.

 

[skaflone721]

I just got my Ike GS call.

How does this work? Will I pay when I go to pick it up or will my card be charged automatically because they took the card info when I did the instore pick up option on the site back in like Jan?

 

[gabrielt16]

Yesasia cancelled Villager order from back when they did pre orders for the reprint

 

[Hedgey]

Posted a picture a couple pages back of a bunch of Little Macs at Yodobashi Camera. They're all gone now. Welp.

I'm part of the cancellations at Target.

They're liars about us having to opt in, or agree to a further delay.

In fact, the email actually said the items will automatically ship when available.

I've called them a few times already and they basically say "sorry, can't do anything." - So frustrating and I won't shop at Target.com again if they can't actually honor their customer's purchases.

We're sorry, but we may not be able to deliver your item(s) by the original estimated delivery for your order (Order #XXXXXXXXXXXX) placed on 04/02/2015. Your new estimated delivery date(s) are included below.

Here's what you can do:
If the item(s) are on backorder and you no longer want the delayed item(s), you can cancel them from the order detail page

You will not be charged for any items until they ship. The delayed items will be automatically shipped to you if they become available before the new estimated delivery date. If items need to be shipped separately, your shipping charges will not increase.

Thanks for shopping at Target.
Team Target

Target suck like that. They cancelled Fox on me way back, because UPS had the wrong address. Rather than try to sort out the shipping, they just cancelled on me.

Yeah, I feel like they'll get two every now and then. I guess I should have expected something like this when Nintendo said that they would reprint Marth.

Good news to scalpers is that if supply is like this, you can still make a healthy profit off of Marth, lol.

Edit: Target sucks. I guess I'm happy that Target were not accepting Paypal as a method at one of the times where Jigglypuff was available for purchase. Fuck outta here with that bullshit.

rip everyone

Diligence pays off I got Marth and Ike at GS!

Yep I won't shop there anymore, online or otherwise, unless I am forced to through more exclusive crap. It's not like I shopped there very often but at least a handful of times a year. Never again. They lost me as a customer.

 

[Toki767]

I bet Jigglypuff will be available for like an hour on Target's site on the 29th.

 

[Insaniac]

got Villager Yes-Asia cancellation. I caved and got one off amazon for 30 bucks, ugh i feel dirty but I'm sick and tired of this

 

[spindashing]

That's how I feel all the amiibos will go on the 29th. Lord knows my wallet will take a hit, especially since Splatoon releases on that day.

Well, except Ness. I feel like Ness will not be available for purchase online at all and that makes me sad...

 

[dallow_bg]

Lots of North Texas GS stores got their Marth's today. Almost all already spoken for.
A few got 2, most got 1 unit.

Great restock.

 

[Jeff Vader]

Was yesterday the only day that GS would be getting their Marth reprints? I ask because I saw only 1 store around me get any (but by the time I called they sold out).

 

[dallow_bg]

Should be coming in any day this week. Yesterday was just the first day.

 

[Jeff Vader]

Should be coming in this week. Yesterday was just the first day.

Ah ok, guess i'll def need to keep an eye open for the remaining days.

 

[bumpkin]

I heard through the grapevine that a lot of Targets are going to get 20-30 Jigglypuffs for in-store sale on release day, so if you missed out on the preorders (or got a cancellation), there's still hope!

Although I wonder if it's going to be like Rosalina in that there won't be a re-stock after those sell through.

 

[Ibuki]

Sad to hear about the Jiggly cancellations. Good to hear people are getting Marth and Ike. My store got one Ike for an outstanding preorder, and the box is totally smashed. Sucks for that guy.

 

[brianmcdoogle]

Conspiracy, but I think yes Asia only cancel two of the three Amiibos in my order so that the final cancellation doesn't get refund through PayPal but instead they give me store credit.

 

[Nirran]

More Gamestops are getting Marth in today. I left my name and number yesterday in case one showed up at my local Gamestop that didn't get any and just got a call they're holding one for me. So keep checking if you're looking for a Marth!

 

[Curler]

Is there any Target number you can call to escalate situations? On several times I've called Gamestop's corporate number and they've been SUPER helpful with issues and got my Robin/Lucina ordered for me too after the one day of havoc, I wish all CS departments could be like that, and not just offshored to people that can help bare minimum, due to what they are given to work with :/

Regular CS: Sorry, I can't reorder it since the website lists it as sold out. You can have a $5 coupon though (which I'll forget to tell you is for online orders only).

Corporate CS: Oh yes, I see from our internal system that we DO have some still available for pre-order! Would you like me to go ahead and order them for you? I'll even do one-day shipping for your troubles!

 

[Breakfast at Noon]

I'm fuming and do not know what to do.
bought Gold Mario of ebay waited 2 weeks for delivery (from new york too uk)
and the delivery driver CHUCKED him over my gate too leave him in safe place as advised by the seller..
seller was a scalper assuming by he had sold 85..

And guess what guys, there is a reason i got a big gate.. i got two huge ass huskies.

I will leave you all to the math on what they did.

Now who do i screw? The seller? (He is a scalper..) or the delivery company (Yodel, there fucking shit they did this to a cinema poster i bought and the 1/8 yuna statue from ffx Both survived as huskies were pups at the time though so i let it slide)

£48 i paid with import costs and postage.

Your dogs ate the amiibo?

I'd go after the shipping company. Sounds like they have a habit of throwing shit out in your yard.

If you have a problem with the seller being a "scalper", you shouldn't have bought from them in the first place. They had nothing to do with this and did not wrong you. You need to complain to the delivery company.
