Character Amiibo Cards: Values on the Rise

I also bought one of those boxes for series 3, they are very cheap if you count them per pack. 18 pack for $60 is about $3.33 per pack.

I am not too big on fake cards but I get that paying so much for one card is obsessive. I love trading and am always down!
 
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they actually reprint the cards to make them more available now. I thought I saw something yesterday about one of the Isabelle amiibo figures getting a reprint.

It just feels like easy money for Nintendo. They don't even have to develop them. They already did that work. They just need to make more copies and sell them. The demand is definitely going to be there because of New Horizons.

Agreed on the price. I need trade bait for Merengue (Series 3, hint hint) and Molly (Series 1), and hopefully my Series 4 packs deliver.
 
Yeah I hope they rerelease the cards for people!
 
Stitches comes in a three-pack with Goldie and Rosie, along with the Isabelle and Digby figures in an Amiibo festival package. They were like 15 dollars on ebay a few weeks ago bc I think people are desperate to get rid of their AF stuff, it probably changed though.
If you have less popular villagers in mind, I saw them going for 99 cents each on eBay
 
Yes!! You're right, I've never got an amiibo card and I've been looking for one a few days before the Nintendo Direct. Yesterday I checked the prices and they skyrocketed 😔 I found Marshall for 50$ lol so crazy.
 
Don't buy anything right now. Nintendo is very very likely going to be rereleasing all of the sets in the next couple of days across all regions. It will be like Smash Bros only with the cards being released again instead of amiibo.
 
I guess that's the rub, right? We can wait and buy packs in hopes of getting the character we want, or we can pay a small premium to buy the exact villager we want.
 
Yeah, I wanted to buy Fang's card, but it was $40 on Ebay, so no way.

People really do take advantage.

oof, the series 3 and 4 card packs are sold out on the japanese my nintendo shop. we'll probably see more restocks at retailers though so that's good.

i'm glad i managed to snag some cheap cards of my more beloved villagers before this direct. before i didn't usually see popular villagers go for more than $20-25 individually on eBay but now they're not only more scarce but way more expensive. the fact that we're getting reprints though is a breath of fresh air.

i think we're going to see a lot more amiibo card trading going on when new horizons drops.
 
Hopefully, the prices will level out soon somehow. I've been working on completing my collection, but I still don't have them all. I do have most of the super popular ones, so that is good. I hope this will prompt Nintendo to do a reprint on amiibo cards, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
 
The packs and the boxes have gone up so much within the last few hours. Insane! I should have started sooner, I knew I wanted to complete this collection regardless of functionality in the new game.

DANG U NINTENDO!
 
i hope they end up selling the amiibo cards again because it's a feature for this game on launch, not something added on in a free update. it'll also suck for the people just getting into the animal crossing series with new horizons to find a villager they absolutely love while researching or something but be unable to buy it because it $420 on amazon and ebay and the random packs aren't sold anymore. i guess they could always trade for the villager, but we don't even know if that works.

if they're put out for sale again, i hope they're redesigned so that the new acnh villagers are added, the rv villagers are given a regular card, and they're designed so that it fits the themes/aesthetic of the game. the current amiibo cards fit the amiibo festival game's theme, and we all know that that game's just kinda dead. the only things that lived from that era are amiibo cards and figures, and since they were so successful they should just be polished up and put on shelves again. there's no reason to have exclusivity since nintendo doesn't profit off of the resales and fake cards.

I was just browsing ebay myself. $149.00 per series set. Just figured I'd Google any news about reprints.
