Thanks for the response, that makes me feel a bit more confident about it. =) I have awhile to decide if I wanna keep these preorders too, I suppose. Right now I'm feeling like the risk is worth it for Ganon and ZSS!!

also I can tell Jigglypuff preorders went up again because now there's like 70 ebay listings for him as opposed to the 10 or 20 there was before.

jiggly is the only amiibo worth that price and even still they aren't charging enough

jiggly is priceless!~
 
sorry to say, but i theres a tear, the box isnt in "perfect condition" you should probably go buy another one
I have been thinking over yesterday and last night and quite frankly, I don't care am not really too fussed that my King Dedede has a microscopic tear at the very top as I have... Shulk... in perfect condition.

EDIT: I worded this post incorrectly.

Oh Jake. I have a Jigglypuff amiibo secured. :)

A shulk?! In perfect condition?! Your lucky!
I also have a shulk amiibo.
 
Can JasonBurrows just stop gloating please, nobody wants to come to this thread if you're going to wipe your smug face over everyone saying you're getting two of the newest Amiibo's just to annoy/make people jealous.

We get it already, you're up all night thinking of Amiibo's, we know you have every Amiibo up to date, we know you're going to buy all of the ones coming out for every game that has a line of Amiibo's.

Stop telling us. Please.

Otherwise to stay on topic, I'm more than willing to give ?32 to safely pre-order a Japanese Ness Amiibo if the UK doesn't get a another round of Pre-orders (Did they even have one?)

By the way do you guys only have Wii Fit Trainer because of her rarity for example? I do not like her at all and even if i find her in a store (which i did yesterday) i will never buy her. I will only buy amiibo figures from characters i like, i do not even care if they look nice. But i will of course check which one had the best paint job! (Haven't got much choice with my Rosalina though, they got only one and i bought it and found out that there was some grey paint on her dress. I eventually could rub it off though!)

I don't really like her, but I'd buy her because if I ever were to start a collection, I'd have some of the rare ones from the get-go instead of paying ridiculous prices.

Alright, I apologise and will refrain from doing it. I was merely trying to troll the trolls that were trolling me about it. From now on, I won't post my amiibo collection. You have my honest word.
 
Managed to preorder one of my dream Amiibos at 2am: Zero Suit Samus! Game tweeted that they were gonna have preorders up at 3am. I refreshed the page at like 1:45, and saw that the preorder buttons were there. I must have literally refreshed the page as soon as they put them up. I gasped and just grabbed my purse and managed to buy her, LITERALLY at the right time, because 2 minutes later, the site crashed! Honestly... These amiibo hunts are going insane. We're crashing entire websites now. My friends and I are in a Skype group chat, and I told them as soon as I found out but they didn't believe me at first... So when they checked, the site was just about to crash. xD :p But yeah, I'm so happy. Now my last Amiibo goal is the pink Yarn Yoshi! <3

I'm so happy though now that sites are starting to restrict them as 1 per customer and only shipping to the country it's sold in (like Game and the Nintendo store). It makes it easier to get ahold of Amiibos. I have to say though, I feel sorry for those of you in America, what with the exclusivity bull****. Honestly, that's not even fair, but hey, it's just a way for those stores to make quick money, because Amiibos are high in demand, and people will go to extreme lengths to get them. I mean, people are crashing sites, buying extra Amiibo to sell at a higher price, they're selling out in a matter of minutes... Honestly. :confused:

I can't say though that it's Nintendo's fault that they aren't matching the supply to the demand. Of course they have to ensure there is more demand than supply. The fact they are becoming "rare" is why they are selling so well. It's the scalpers who are also at fault. It's greediness. It's people being greedy just to make more money, and that stops people who also want to buy Amiibos from getting them, because someone else (aka: MarioTehPlumber) has already bought them all. That's greediness. :\

Yeah i can understand that hahah! I was really lucky when i found my Villager in store at around mid February, he was there since release apparently! But i do not mind, thanks to people that did not want him i got my favorite amiibo!

Where do you live Europe? If yes me too! High-five! No exclusives for us!! It just does not make sense, why did they do that? They would make a lot of profit when they do not make them exclusive too...

-high five-! Yeah I live in the UK! We're pretty lucky because the stores we buy off now have stopped shipping internationally. It just makes it easier for us to get Amiibo that way. Although, that being said, there's now like a middle man service now that are importing these Amiibos for people outside of Europe, which is kind of a bummer, but I don't think many people will do that just because it will end up costing quite a lot. :\

And yeah, although they would create a much greater profit if they made them exclusive to their own store. That's why they do it. They do it just because it's such an easy way to make a lot of money.

Please keep me updated personally Jason. Just because Hyogo doesn't want to hear about your amiibos doesn't mean the rest of us doesn't :)

Whoa a middle man amiibo service? That is crazy! Are there still King Dedede amiibo around in the UK or are they all gone like where i live: The greatest and best country ever The Netherlands! (Actually no, you will go bankrupt if you live here, taxes are awfully high compared to other countries.)

Actually no, the stores around here are pretty empty when it comes to Amiibo... That being said though, I live in a big city, so it's inevitable they will sell out fast. The game shops are kinda small. The only Amiibo they will tend to stock are like the Wave 1s... So Mario and Yoshi and Donkey Kong, really. :\ That's why I have to order Amiibo online. Because it's impossible to find them elsewhere!

Nobody wants to hear "Haha, I've got this Amiibo and you don't! I've got TWO of them" What if people really want a specific one and Jason keeps rambling on about it? Rubbing salt in the wound, mate.

My brother managed to pre-order Greninja, Ganondorf and Jigglypuff from GAME, Who really cares about that?
