neon switch

Did it actually go on sale yet or just a placeholder? Won't let me add to cart.

 

[SRTtoZ]

So I wasn't a Prime member, the Neon Switch was only for Prime members, and I signed up for the free 30 day trial of Prime to preorder.

Will I have to buy a $100 membership to Prime to keep the preorder since we are outside the 30-day window my trial lasts? Or will my preorder stay just fine even if I cancel Prime? Anyone know?

It's will stay as long as you ordered it while under Prime.

 

[BRocknRolla]

So how long was it up? 3 minutes?

 

[Kermy]

Looks like it's gone now.

 

[Jiguryo]

Thanks, NowInStock - I've just preordered the Neon bundle on Amazon.

(Apparently, it went live first for Prime subscribers.)

 

[Chamber]

I'll be damned. Finally, this thread comes in handy.

 

[Jugendstil]

Pro controller up on Best Buy right now.

You're a saint, thanks for the heads up!

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Why did Amazon do it like this. So stupid.

 

[dantevsninjas]

Had an error page when I added to cart, and now it's sold out.

 

[kamikaze]

think it's gone now. had one in the cart and it's been moved out.

was trying to decide whether to go with this or keep the best buy grey pre-order...guess the decision was made for me

 

[Hinchy]

FUCKING PRIME ONLY BULLSHIT
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH

 

[friskykillface]

welp.
gone

 

[GAFmeansLIFE]

 

[Drumavarium]

You're a saint, thanks for the heads up!

No problem. Glad you were able to get one!

 

[Hattori]

5 mins 😂

 

[BRocknRolla]

FUCKING PRIME ONLY BULLSHIT
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH

Didn't help me any.

 

[eXMomoj]

OOS, Wario64 said they lasted 5 minutes.

I'm so happy I have him on notifications so I was able to grab one.

 

[snake fish]

I got one both versions pre ordered wooooooo

 

[AdanVC]

FUCK!!! I want to preorder one but I'm in Mexico and the Neon Switch does not ship to Mexico :'( We still don't have an option to preorder help!

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Now I'm wondering if I'll get the 5% back when it ships since my trial will be up or if I'll only get back down to 3%.

 

[HylianTom]

My GameStop came through - they transferred my original system preorder to the neon system as soon as it came up.

Only thing left is waiting for that Piggyback guide..

 

[finalflame]

Now I'm wondering if I'll get the 5% back when it ships since my trial will be up or if I'll only get back down to 3%.

Or you could, y'know, keep Prime since it's a fantastic service for $99/yr

 

[brerwolfe]

It won't add to cart. Does that mean it's sold out again?

 

[Jake2by4]

Its still up

edit: you need Prime lol

 

[TangoAlphaLima]

Now I'm wondering if I'll get the 5% back when it ships since my trial will be up or if I'll only get back down to 3%.

Probably back down to 3%. But the monthly Prime membership is only $10.99, so you could essentially make it only $5 after factoring in the extra 2% cash back on your Switch preorder.

 

[eXMomoj]

It won't add to cart. Does that mean it's sold out again?

Yup, it sold out in 5 min.

 

[mutsu]

It won't add to cart. Does that mean it's sold out again?

Too little too late.

 

[Jafku]

It's sold out guys. Sorry

 

[Jake2by4]

Its Prime Exclusive
Now sold out

 

[TS-08]

Its still up

edit: you need Prime lol

It's gone. I have prime and if I try to preorder it doesn't work.

 

[Neoweee]

Prime Exclusive is actually a good way to limit scalpers.

 

[Speedwagon]

Nowinstock failed me...

 

[BRocknRolla]

Its still up

edit: you need Prime lol

It wasn't still up. Prime didn't make a difference. Any time you added it to your cart it would tell you it wasn't available.

Prime Exclusive is actually a good way to limit scalpers.

Sure. Now if Amazon could just notify me (considering I'm signed up even) so I could take advantage of deals like this, it would be great.

 

[Crazyorloco]

at this rate Nintendo is going to have 2 million Nintendo Switch Consoles sold on day one.

 

[Naked Snake]

Screw this. Nowinstock.net has been useless for me. Got several email alerts on the past few days for various things but the time I click the link and try to checkout it's gone...

And just wasted my Prime trial for nothing. Was hoping to keep it until I actually need it :/

 

[Saint Gregory]

This marks the 3rd time that I saw the pre-orders in time for the button to still be active but after they sold out already. Feels bad but I still have that unreliable ass Bestbuy order.

 

[TangoAlphaLima]

Nowinstock failed me...

Their email notification failed me (got it about 2 minutes ago, way too late), but their text message notification did not. May want to try that if you didn't already have it on.

 

[RikuDawn]

Well, now I've got both pre-ordered. But I certainly don't need both. I only ordered the gray because the neon was never available until now.

 

[GrandHarrier]

I love how having notifications for this doesn't do shit. Literally doesn't tell you at all.

 

[Fireblend]

Thanks god for Nowinstock.net

I need to buy the devs some beers or something.

 

[hiphoptherobot]

I love how having notifications for this doesn't do shit. Literally doesn't tell you at all.

Nowinstock.net worked wonders for me.

 

[eXMomoj]

People need to learn to start following Wario64 on Twitter if they want instant notifications for hard to find items. Thanks to him I have a Gray Switch, a Neon Switch, and 6 Pro Controllers for preorder (2 controllers likely will be cancelled).

 

[LotusHD]

FUCK, my phone was muted, and I was helping my parents out too. Damn it all.

 

[GrandHarrier]

Nowinstock.net worked wonders for me.

Yeah I guess I just figured the whole point of "Notify me when available" was to notify me when available.

 

[TunaLover]

It's going to be hard to get, itsn't?

 

[SalvaPot]

Prime Exclusive is actually a good way to limit scalpers.

Most scalpers are Prime Members, since they get a discount that way and fast shipping.

 

[Jake2by4]

My text and email alert from Nowinstock were about 12 minutes apart. Lucky I had my headset on.

 

[finalflame]

It's going to be hard to get, itsn't?

Yes.

 

[Fireblend]

Most scalpers are Prime Members, since they get a discount that way and fast shipping.

Yeah but they can only order one unless they're willing to pay for Prime on multiple accounts, no?
