Yeah I decided on impulse to drive to Target near my office in West Los Angeles. Got there right after store opening, but they did the ticket thing and all were claimed. Brickseek said store had 75 before opening, and it was down to 3 by the times I got back. Figures I got Amazon Teasure Truck while driving back to office. I'll just have to wait for slow ass FedEx Surepost to deliver next Thurs.Local target stock starting to shrink and some stores now sold out.
Talked to an Amazon customer service rep. She said it should be shipped by oct.11, but could be sooner. Meh.
That's cool I can wait.. Just needed to know if i need to cancel amazon preorder or not. From all these reported numbers Nintendo really upped the amount vs nes launch. This is like 10x as many available on launch day. Not worried at all.Talked to an Amazon customer service rep. She said it should be shipped by oct.11, but could be sooner. Meh.
Exactly..the market will be flooded with these continually for the next year. Wait until all the resellers start returning their multiple/extra speculative purchases after its apparent that there is no money to be made in them. At that point demand will quickly drop like a rockThat's cool I can wait.. Just needed to know if i need to cancel amazon preorder or not.

Don't be a dbag and hook up some CAGs... sheesh.After barely even trying, I have three of these now. Walmart at midnight, Target this morning, and now the Amazon Treasure Truck. I guess I'll flip two of them.
Not that I need it but I'm sure others were counting on this and not going out. That's bs that they decided to do this but not honor the orders that were made. I guess I'll get a free month of prime and some credit.Sooooo Amazon using SNES Classic to promote expansion of Treasure Truck program...

What? Did you hear they aren't honoring orders or just speculating?Not that I need it but I'm sure others were counting on this and not going out. That's bs that they decided to do this but not honor the orders that were made. I guess I'll get a free month of prime and some credit.
I'm just saying since they haven't shipped any out but managed to secure them for the treasure truck.What? Did you hear they aren't honoring orders or just speculating?
That treasure truck would be a real score to carjack. Just saying.
I think right now resellers are undercutting each other then it will rise with which I assume will be small restocks of these systems through the end of yearIt seems most targets are selling out within 2 hours of opening, and today was probably only the hardcore and resellers in line. Time will tell if the stock in resellers hands right now is oversaturation. $20 less profit than NES but a lot selling only in the $140-$150 range.
It seems that "unknown" quantity on brickseek is the same as 0. Thought it just wasn't updated yet for some stores, but saw one go from 150+ to now "unknown".
i cancelled my amazon.de order as soon as i saw a charge reported, was not worth the extra ~$40, altho i would like to have a euro one closer to $79 usd price but most likely not gonna happen
Similar process for me, but usually involves gastrointestinal tract, releasing one, and then no longer being stressed.I stressed about getting one weeks ago, secured one, and since then, have no longer been stressed.
Prices have already started to come down considerably. Sure, you still see $250+, but there are some $160 listings in there. I still haven't gotten one (didn't luck out with preorders and had to work today so couldn't stop by any of the retail outlets at opening). But given how much of an initial stock stores had, I feel pretty comfortable waiting 3-4 weeks (or however long) for the next restock and nabbing one then.You can still get them on ebay <3 :3
Sounds like some associates have some that they are going to buyWeird cause my Target said 2 left and when my wife got there she told me they said they were gone around 8:30. So I checked brickseek again and it said 2 there but 0 available. Now I'm checking again and now says 2 available again? What's going on?
I’m in the same boat. Mine still says processing. But my old cc was canceled due to theft. Hoping they let me update payment and not just cancel.Has anyone order from Walmart.com shipped past the shipping lable yet?
They had authorized charged my old card and I'm worried that it isn't going to ship.
