are you fucking kidding me?

I'm angry tbh

 

[Deleted member 126221]

Fuck off Best Buy.

Fuck off Nintendo.

 

[Fuzzy]

BB fucking sucks.

 

[thebisonxrc]

Man, what a waste of time. I'm really getting annoyed with this stuff.

 

[zroid]

FUCK OFF

 

[senorbivins]

this has to be a joke, one minute... my god

 

[MrFixIt]

I got to Visa Verified and it sent me back to cart.
For a company that wants to be knows for its electronics, it's pretty clear that their servers are powered by our tears.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

LOL

Sorry guys, I ordered 100 of each

Spoiler

lol jk

 

[EvilMario]

So glad Best Buy hyped up those 12 Amiibo they had to sell.

 

[Sniffynose]

What the actual fuck!!! They sold out that fast in the midst of a site checkout failure?!

I feel sick, I hope some of us here actually got a few at least? I only got lucina and robin as far as I can tell =/

 

[tiijj]

retweet if you got it they say lol

it's like if you're lucky enough rub it on most people's faces lol


It was really surprising how fast it went.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

wtf is wrong with my address?!

 

[Yaranaika]

retweet if you got it they say lol

it's like if you're lucky enough rub it on most people's faces lol


It was really surprising how fast it went.

Only 3 retweets.
Makes sense.

 

[zroid]

what a joke

 

[MarkusRJR]

Got to my payment screen and then after going through paypal screens it told me it wasn't available in my location.

I have been F5ing every 5 seconds for the past hour and did everything the exact moment it went live. HOW IN THE FUCK IS THIS ACCEPTABLE? Seriously, fuck EB Games, fuck Best Buy, but most of all fuck Nintendo.

 

[MrFixIt]

Sorry guys, I ordered 100 of each

Spoiler

lol jk

No fucking way. There were only like 2 success stories on GAF. You'd think BB would have had a few more in the supply chain considering that the Futureshop is no more.

 

[ReddishGUI]

Seems like it was PURE LUCK to get an order in...

 

[Fuzzy]

LOL

Congratulations to those 3 people!

 

[Deleted member 126221]

Hey guys, ready for that Lucas amiibo? I'm sure he's gonna be relatively easy to get.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

What a STEAMING PILE OF SHIT!

Re-enter your address.

 

[Chatin]

This whole process was bullshit. And the site keeps saying some are up for preorder until you try to checkout.

 

[EvilMario]

Hey guys, ready for that Lucas amiibo? I'm sure he's gonna be relatively easy to get.

Are you willing to kill a man for an Amiibo? Then Lucas could possibly be yours..

 

[Lemmy Caution]

Agh, got even further this time but it's giving me shit over my postal code now.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

Congratulations to those 3 people!

I just got my order in. It took me much longer then a minute.

 

[Fuzzy]

Nice, I'm willing to kill Kuro.

 

[phoenix296]

Keep trying. Some people are getting orders in despite what BB's twitter says.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Keep trying. Some people are getting orders in despite what BB's twitter says.

And everyone's will get cancelled.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

Well I got an order in. Or at least got to a page that said I got an order in.

 

[Deleted member 126221]

Anything special you're doing? Just hammer the Checkout button and hope for the best?

 

[zroid]

LOL I just got an order in

ok then

Lucina, Robin, and Inkling Girl

I'll believe it when the damn things are in my hands

 

[ReddishGUI]

I got an order in..

 

[Lemmy Caution]

Agh, got even further this time but it's giving me shit over my postal code now.

And I re-entered my postal without the space and it worked! After a good 20 minutes of refreshes, cart clearing and more.

Don't give up yet amiibros!

 

[senorbivins]

Just got an order in, idk how. but we will see how it goes

 

[zroid]

keep trying I guess. fucking best buy...

 

[levyjl1988]

Well fuck I missed out on this.
They cancelled my order of 1 each. This is BS.

 

[Zing]

What's going on? I have everything in cart, refreshed, shows all in stock except Lucina, but get errors when trying to pay.

Edit: rofl. I can't even remove Lucina and Robin from cart now, so I can't order anything from the site.

 

[Deleted member 126221]

Wow. Got an order in, but I'm way too cynical at this point. I'll rejoice when it's in my hands, otherwise I assume it's gonna be cancelled down the line.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

Which makes me wonder...if they said they were all gone in a minute...how are orders going through now?

 

[zroid]

please don't cancel it ;_;

 

[senorbivins]

lucina and robin arent on the site anymore

EDIT: now there back

 

[DeathByBacklog]

Well fuck I missed out on this.
They cancelled my order of 1 each. This is BS.

Wait...you got a cancellation already?

 

[MarkusRJR]

Well they changed them all to out of stock instead of being unavailable in the location. Now I can't even get to the check out bug to get an order in.

 

[Chatin]

Are there literally like five Lucina and Robin amiibos alotted to the entirety of BestBuy Canada? I would like them to tweet actual numbers at some point. Would stop me from even bothering.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

Biggest thing to take away from that though is "In Progress".

Cancellation...imminent.

 

[Zing]

I figured I'd grab Charizard. Site says available for preorder. I add to cart and its "unable to be delivered to my address. It still says available to preorder. Whatever.

Guess they rebooted a server or something. I was able to order now.

 

[Sniffynose]

Man this is insanity, does Nintendo not like money?? I just can't comprehend how they can short change NA so badly when there is a massive demand right now for them. If and when they ever get around to reprints most of us will be so pissed off that we won't be bothering with them anymore.

What will a reprint entail, anyway? Two extra inventory?

 

[ReddishGUI]

We might be fine everyone.

The site screwed up and the dumb bb twitter dude said that they were SOLD OUT IN LESS THAN A MINUTE PLEASE RETWEET BLABLABLL... but there is no way that all of them sold out within a minute.
