Well, if you can't find them, you have to import them.

Importing is not an option since I have a full Smash EU range (boxed). I just want to keep it consistent and complete.
I checked my orders again, I have the following coming:
Male Corrin x 2
Female Corrin
Cloud x 2
Bayonetta(2)
So will happily trade a Corrin and Cloud for the missing two I need - AC Cloud and Bayonneta(1). Otherwise I'd rather return the doubles to GAME and get my money back from their dickery price.

Apparently, Amazon shipped my Corrin (2), Cloud (2) and both Bayonettas, and Micromania dispatched Corrin (1) and Cloud (1) for store pickup. Seems like I'm set for this wave... Far easier than the BotW one, for me.
I fully expect my FNAC order for Pikmin one to fail, though... my CC number changed inbetween, and it's basically impossible to update it (I've contacted them, it was "well, I tried to cancel the order, but it's not available anymore... no joke?)

I know the markup is infuriating, but I was able to order player 2 Bayonetta and Corrin on GAME UK this morning. Couldn't find them available anywhere else.

Amazon order of Cloud went from "Arriving tomorrow - dispatching soon" last night to "We're having trouble finding this item - delivery date pending" this morning.

Thanks. It Hurts but I've gotten at least half of my amiibo for £7 or less that this shouldn't increase the average I've paid by too much.
Is this supposed to launch today too or next week with Hey Pikmin? I ordered the Cloud amiibo with it but it hasn't started processing yet. Meanwhile my other order with Corrin and Bayonetta is safe.

Same thing happened to mine. Bayonetta and Cloud have shipped though, which I thought was odd - figured they'd be much harder to get than Pikmin.
Next week, 28th.
Is this common for Amazon? I thought they were safer than most?

Is anywhere truly safe from the Nintendo shortages now?
Amazon order of Cloud went from "Arriving tomorrow - dispatching soon" last night to "We're having trouble finding this item - delivery date pending" this morning.
I hate amiibo
Yeah. I ususally have no problems at all with pre-orders from Amazon, for games, amiibo or anything. But lately, they've been saying they'll deliver on the day of release right up until midnight, then when I wake up in the morning it's 'delivery date pending'. It's infuriating.
They've shipped my copy of the game, and the Inkling Girl amiibo, so they should come today. But my Inkling Boy and Squid amiibo have now moved to Monday. They better come.
Jealous. I was expecting them, but only the three new Splatoon amiibo turned up. Still awesome though.
Did they dispatch?
Yeah, on Wednesday apparently.
Ah okay, that's fine then. You'll probably get it tomorrow~

I know that some Argos MIGHT have them instock.
Amazon has it but only with 3rd party sellers. the lowest their right now is £21
Play-Asia has it for £16 but not including delivery.
Yeah, I've had a look around those. Argos is odd, I don't think they actually have any stock. I think ebay is my best bet.

Nintendo UK done a poo poo. I received all the Smash Amiibo except Cloud Player 1. To be fair for some reason that one's despatch email was sent a day later, so maybe I will receive it tomorrow, even though I bought them all at once. Should I be worried?
If you've received separate dispatch notices, they'll arrive separately. Each dispatch email should have a tracking ref though. Can you track the delivery of the missing amiibo?

Again, if anyone needs a Cloud AC amiibo it is yours for cost + shipping. I have a spare

Also anyone in the UK looking for splat on amiibo well tesco direct are selling them all for £10.99.
Isn't also a different gender?
I'm not that fond of the whole "player 1/player 2" trick...
TheMoon

Isn't also a different gender?
Of course. It's Male and Female Corrin. Different hair and all. Just the same color-palette.
clear differences
Yeah, but they barely differ at all. Slightly different hair. Meh.Isn't also a different gender?
Only until Smash Bros 4 Switch with Ice Climbers, Wolf, Inklings and Bomberman as additional characters.

Speaking of which, have Chrom and Tiki gone up anywhere yet?you forgot the 4 new Fire Emblem characters
Phillips455
Member
No. I believe they might go up sometime after fire emblem warriors has an actual date.
From the rumours, a August Nintendo direct (not a specific game one) might show some updates.

Bam, got everyone.
And the best part? Got an e-mail from Amazon, I get 5 back for every Amiibo!

You already saved those five bucks. They listed them all at 19.99 initially, you paid 14.99.

Even better.
I really thought 20 is the new price for Amiibo, I wouldn't be surprised.

On amazon it is.
?On amazon it is.
It's still 14.99 here on Amazon?
It's even back to 12.90 or 13.90 in my supermarket (that had 8 out of 9 friday morning.. I kinda wished I hadn't ordered them)
TheMoon
Member
Look at any of the new (upcoming) ones. All of them are 19.99€.
I don't think there's a single one on fr...
I'd be willing to believe it's a placeholder price, I can't see those sold at 19.99.
TheMoon
Member
Oh, fr? I assumed we were talking about .de since they are notoriously overcharging for everything right now (LEs, SNES classic, amiibo).
I may have missed which Amazon we were discussing about, but I would be surprised to see vastly different prices (by more than 30%!) on different Amazon stores on such a "common" product...
TheMoon
Member
We never specificed until now^^
This is common, btw. AmazonFR (and ES/IT too) regularly has lower prices than DE specifically. Another comparison is how AmazonUK sells amiibo for 10.99GBP still (RRP of the Pikmin amiibo) while it's 19.99 on DE.
Funnily enough, most of the time, I find Amazon.de cheaper than .fr ^_^
I guess you remember more the better deals abroad than those you get...
I know those things happen, but I'm surprised it happens with Amiibos.
The one releasing friday? It's still a preorder... I'd be curious to know whether it's indeed a policy. With Amiibos cheaper elsewhere in Deutschland, that doesn't seem a normal move for Amazon...
