I could be wrong. But I still have the page up for both FS and BB and have Check4Change running on the Quantity Remaining. Both tabs were flashing when I woke up this morning, but the quantity was back to 0.

...until it pops back in other stores, as a non-exclusive.
If that happens retailers will lose a lot of leverage with "exclusive" deals. In other words, people won't be losing sleep over these anymore.

I posted it here and in the main Amiibo thread as well. Many people picked them up. When did you preorder? They went up at like 5am EST Friday. So if you did it later in the day then it makes sense it got cancelled. Happy I got my Amazon UK preorders for all of Wave 4. It even went down in price so they will be $22.51 CAN each with shipping and all. About $7 more than an in store order. However I have my entire collection as NA NiB so I would like to keep it that way. They are my backup.
I saw nothing on the Canadian or main Reddit. Doubtful since they got removed early this morning.
Thursday at 10:30AM EST is when I noticed them and promptly pre-ordered them all.
I'm living in Japan so it would be a bit odd if my priority was knocked out.
I ordered him separately and a think I made a mistake with the credit card.
My fault, hopefully I'll have better luck with AmazonJP though. They're not shipping outside of Japan.

Wonder why I didn't actually mention the website, haha. So much for being a bro.
I couldn't even try and sell from this site's stock due to the one per account rule.

I don't think it's considered rare at the moment. I personally saw like 10 Sonics at EB yesterday.
Yeah they're definitely as common as Diddy is. Meaning most places have them, however you'll definitely find plenty of stores with Diddy, Sonic and Megaman sold out and only commons from wave one left.

I believe this is the reason why Amazon.ca cancelled the Rosalina amiibos.
It's impressive how someone that mentally disturbed has a job that pays well enough for him to buy up all of that stock.

Another quick question. So I used the promotional currency amazon.ca offered after the Rosalina cancellation and preordered another item with it. I managed to get another $15 from them considering others got more compensation.
If I cancel an item will I get that promotional value back to use again? Or is it gone?

Gone. I've convinced them to give it back once in a case like this, but typically you lose it.
^This, you're just feeding him.
I suggested this the night before lucario was released and people seemed opposed / indifferent to it. The American amiibo thread is using PushBullit or something to that effect. anything with an alarm is okay by me though, cause a single text vibratin isn't enough to wake me up
I just got back from the mall and saw a ton of Sonics at EB and Walmart and a couple shieks at Walmart. Mega man is no where to be found. I think I might just hang on to my extra Mega man.

I'd like to be part of it.
I'd be interested in this group.
Count me in, do you need my twitter or number?

Wait, I haven't been following the news. Amazon cancelled the Rosalina amiibos and they're giving away money as compensation?
There's that US amiibo twitter, which is really spammy, but helpful if you're looking for amiibos. If someone has the dedication to run one for Canada, why not? lol

Wow. What's he going to do with all those? Rosalina doesn't even sell for that much... I'm assuming he bought 100 of them.
He's going to destroy them. He doesn't like the character.

goddamnit, i this makes me sad
yes please! count me in!
I don't post too much because I'm so busy (the wife keeps me in check) but something like this would be perfect for me!
I'd pay to see that.

I wish there was a SMS text alert when wave 4 appears on amazon.ca.
That's usually my only source for amiibo now that some sites restrict importing.
Preorder window seems very tight.

Don't fool yourself, he's selling them all.
I didn't know that was happening. I just bought my Bowser for full price.

Welp, just got 15 bucks for the cancelled Rosalina at least. Was hoping to have extras to offer to people here, but oh well. I wonder if Amazon even got any?

My bad, Peach, DK and Yoshi. Been a long day, half asleep.
Never, because we already underpaying in the first place for them at the moment.
How so?

Aw here in the GTA are people seeing Mega Mans? I found Sonic today, but no luck otherwise.
Gotcha.
Tons here in Ottawa. Just let me know if you can't find one and I'd be happy to pick one up.
