Got my order in \o/

 

[ohlawd]

got one

along with the next three volumes of Prison School >_>

 

[The Elite]

And just like that... she's gone?

Damn.

Edit: Back up.

 

[RPG_Fanatic]

Managed to get one. Nice and fast.

 

[zroid]

K I saw it again and ordered this time. Whew.

 

[kinger]

Keep refreshing! Finally got her to show up

 

[The Elite]

She keeps fluctuating in and out of existence now.

 

[lionpants]

Got one. Unfortunately the pre-order trick didn't work for free shipping. It wanted me to group them together.

I had to eat the shipping costs.

 

[ohlawd]

guys, keep trying

it keeps going back and forth

 

[Bass260]

Got her. Good job Amazon

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Why am I being charged shipping. =\

 

[joedick]

Ahhh, got it! Seems to be up and staying for now (until it sells out)

You could have still done it, they ship when they release regardless.

Go to the next page, you can choose super saver for the full order.

 

[ViP space]

Got one!

 

[MarkusRJR]

Wow, this is probably the most painless Amiibo purchase in a while.

I have a pre-order and a backordered item, and it's offering free shipping for those two, but Palutena is separate.

I guess I have to get something in-stock to get free shipping.

EDIT: Got it to work. Added something in stock, removed it, order got free shipping.

This is what I was afraid of with respect to adding a pre-order item to get free shipping

good thing I activated my Prime free trial.

 

[DVCY201]

Still in stock? I hope this is indicative of future amiibo shopping. Certainly makes my life easier.

 

[stolin]

Wow, this is probably the most painless Amiibo purchase in a while.

Yup, I wonder if its more stock, less desired character, promotion date & time not known... All I can say it I hope Dark Pit + Wave 6 is a similar experience.

 

[c-murph]

Reddit. Duh. lol.

Weird though, worked fine for me. Got a book on preorder and the amiibo, free shipping is fine.

 

[Deleted member 126221]

Still available after 45 minutes?! Is this finally the end of the amiibo madness?

 

[AleeN634]

Managed to get one too, maybe Nintendo has finally figured out supply.

 

[Kade]

I secured one and cancelled once I remembered that I ordered an imported one. Surprised it's still going.

 

[RPG_Fanatic]

After reading post of gaffer talking about the pain of getting their order through, I was surprised with how easy it went after the refresh showed the amiibo in stock.

 

[Sora_N]

I managed to get one just by checking around 2:15. Thanks amazon. <3

 

[kinger]

It is now 4:30 PST and she is still up? This makes me optimistic about future waves!

Spoiler

Now if we only got more significant restocks... I missed Captain Falcon again :c

 

[zroid]

still in stock? is this real life?

 

[ohlawd]

EB Games all over again

 

[Sora_N]

Nintendo learned the supply part of market equilibrium.

 

[i-Jest]

Hopefully these Palutena stock levels are a sign that getting Amiibo won't be as frustrating going forward.

 

[CRA5H]

Still available at 10pm.. It's good but also I hope they didn't oversupply and be left with tons of stock. This may make Nintendo think twice about producing so many...then we complain about stock levels haha

 

[zroid]

already shipped? must be dat prime special treatment I've always heard about

 

[Renewed]

Hmm, maybe Zero Suit Samus should be Amazon exclusive because if this is any indicator, the chances of getting these amiibo are better than ever.

 

[The Elite]

Mine shipped.

 

[ohlawd]

awww here we go. the Prime elite versus the free scrubs like me ;_; Prison School vol 1 and Pally haven't shipped

 

[March of the Crabs]

Got my Palutena! Went on 2 hours after she went up. Maybe Nintendo has finally started sorting out their stock shenanigans.

 

[Renewed]

Palutena's finally gone. I wasn't checking constantly but it was there an hour ago for sure.

 

[Deleted member 126221]

If someone from Montreal is interested, I'm selling a few of my amiibos... I simply have too many of them, as I got caught in the craze and bought a ton of them often simply because they were "rare".

So if you're interested, I still have boxed Captain Falcon, Fox and Diddy Kong.

PM'd you.

I visited GameStop in Sweden (the one in the Globen mall) last week and saw they had a ton of Wario amiibo. Unfortunately, they cost about 35 CDN a piece. I know this is an outrageous price, but as I haven't seen a single one in the wild in Québec, the idea of buying one to bring back home seemed tempting. I didn't do it in the end since I had a little hope I could find it in-store for cheaper here. Was I wrong in thinking this? Best Buy never seems to have it in stock and it's sold out on every website. I lost track of amiibo releases after the Super Mario series so I have no idea what's going on.

It's rare but it pops here and there. It was on amazon.ca a few days ago at normal price.

I got him at Toys R us two weeks ago. Keep checking.

Palutena shipped at 5am today? Odd, but cool haha.

I bought mine with Zelda Wii U for free shipping. Palutena shows no sign of shipping. Looks like I'm going to have to contact them and try to get her shipped.

EDIT: Just got off the chat with Amazon. They made a one time exception and split my order.
