I'm with you, it's a brilliant plan. Sucks that people's orders are getting cancelled.
I'm still going to do me though

My eyes are glued to the order details. Nothing yet. Paid with a gift card.

I've only skimmed over the past bit of the thread, but what is going on with Master Edition preorders being cancelled? Is there some news I missed about why this is happening?

Nintendo New York will probably have hundreds of extras available for to buy on launch day
Nintendo NY is like having a cheat code
Damn shame this is happening with one week to go.

Amazon really dropping the ball on Switch stuff.
First the March 7th release date for the Pro Controllers and Charging grips, now this nonsense.

Same. Gift carded mine a week or so ago.
I'm in the same position as you. I'm completely disappointed with amazon, I should have known better since this isnt the first time i've had problems with them.

Anything on your end? Or was yours cancelled and I missed your post?

Sorry. I'm jumping threads.
Timestamp of my order email is 3:29 AM EST.

Sorry to hear about the cancellations, all those impacted. 
Any sign of similar difficulties from Gamestop or Bestbuy?

Question about Gamestop.
So they tried to charge my card tonight for my Master Edition, but for reasons that I only have myself to blame, my card was a few dollars short and was declined. I got an email about it with instructions on what to do. So I went ahead and updated my CC info with a new card that has the amount to cover it and replied to the email as instructed. I did this all about 45 minutes after I got that card declined email.
Did I done fuck up my order? Am I in the back of the line now? Am I going to lose it completely? Anyone have something similar happen with a Gamestop order and things be OK?
Stupid me :/

Same thing just happened to me except I had the funds, my stupid CC company just declined the charge for whatever reason. Getting a little worried now tbh.

Sweet, GameStop just charged my credit card for the Master Edition! Guess that means I'm safe.
Call them when you can. Happened to me and phantom pain. No issue.

Yeah they just charged my PayPal credit card too! They'll probably ship within the next few days.
Should be the case. There have been no more cancellations since the waves happened.

So another hour after I had updated my CC info and responded to their email I now see the charge on my card. So hopefully just getting your situation resolved and letting them know will work for you as well. Hopefully I'm good now...
My CC also declined the charge from GS. Not even sure why. I had to verify it and also do the email thing where it's supposed to be RESOLVED. Hopefully the order is processed smoothly. This happened once before last year and I had to do the same thing. Order was processed without a hitch.
yea, glad i stayed up late and caught this. they emailed me about an hour ago so hopefully there are no delays.
just standard game

Anyone that got the Master Edition on Best Buy with GCU is a lucky dude.

Gamestop cancelled my Master Edition. Prepare yourselves.
Did Gamestop update your order status from "Open" to something else? Does the order page also mention that you have been charged? Mine hasn't changed one bit since I placed the order, but I do see a pending charge from Gamestop on my credit card.
it won't change until after they ship it. then it will be "Closed"

So after the Gamestop snafu last night it looked like things were good as I rectified it and was eventually charged later in the night. I wrote to CS just to cover my bases. This morning I see an email responding to my CS inquiry that says:
"I've removed the authorization hold in your order. At this time your order has been sent back for additional processing. As long as your order information goes through successfully, the order will process as normal."
The charge is still on the card. Does this mean they're gonna try to charge my card again? I had enough for the charge, but since it was a debit card I just use for online orders, there isn't enough to cover another charge if they make one. Blah.

Yep, I've also been charged by Gamestop for The Master Edition, coming as an import to the UK so hopefully their 3-5 day estimate is accurate and it shouldn't be overly delayed from 3 March. Slightly annoyingly, it seems that I gave the details of my Amex rather than my specialist international credit card, but it's only about another £1 on the total cost, so nothing too bad.
I'm assuming that it's too early to know for sure, but I suppose that I'll need a US version of the expansion pass to work with this, rather than from the EU eShop. Any more concrete ideas?

It's all based on the language you select on a system level. You'll get the accompanying voice and subtitle track, so no mixing and matching.
