Sadly, the Best Buy near me doesn't have preorders yet and the online associate I just spoke to had no idea when they would be available. I'm ready to dump like $20-$30 on these things.
Hey Germans, check out www.buecher.de, cards are available for pre-ordering, 6,99 Euros a pack. They ship within Germany and to Austria

Well it looks like I'm out of luck, they stocked in the middle of the night here and they were all gone by morning D:

Best Buy website says “Coming Soon” (US), so they’re a confirmed retailer. Might be worth saving this page/making an account.
Actually, it says that they’re releasing on 11/5/21 on this page. Perhaps they’ll be available on that date or in the store?

Yeah, Best Buy had pre-orders available this morning - they all sold out, which is why it now says "coming soon." Weirdly they didn't have a pick-up in store option for pre-orders, which makes me wonder whether they are going to have any stock in store on release day.
Usually 'Coming Soon' is Best Buy lingo for 'Sold Out', especially for their pre-orders. I was quick enough to get the cards in my cart during this morning's pandemonium, but then the page would say 'we just found out this item's out of stock!
' when I tried to checkout.And then they flat-out removed them from my cart after they quickly restocked them.
Fingers crossed Best Buy releases them in-store, but I'm personally not holding my breath. ☹

I was really hoping that Best Buy Canada would increase the Series 5 limit from 1 to 3, but they still haven’t yet. How are players supposed to complete the set when we’re limited to 6 out of 48 cards?

Speaking of, how does it cost for one pack in JP/EU/AU? Is it the same as the 6-pack?

Wait, Best Buy released pre orders? Oh. My. God. Why does this keep happening to me? I’m busy during the day!
In Japan, it's 330 yen, so comparable to NA prices per card.
Not sure about EU/AUS, but from what it sounds like, it varies from country to currency.

Can someone tell me how stores can enforce the 1 pack per household? Like is it you can only buy 1 pack at a time? What if you leave the store and come back? Will they somehow know you already purchased one earlier? What if my bf and I buy 1 each but we live together? I want to buy at least 8 so I can start trading. I'm so worried if I can only buy 1 on that day and then it sells out and becomes a rare unicorn, I don't want to end up buying from scalpers

I'm just a ghost.
I am going to wait a while until this dies down and then I will be able to get the amiibo cards for a decent price on Amazon. I was able to get the Sanrio Amiibo pack for only $12.99 several months ago (yes I got the full pack of Sanrio villagers). I don't trust these scalpers trying to drive up the price like crazy. I am going to play it smart and choose out the new amiibo villagers that I want personality.
