Same. Was coming via UPS, was in transit, but no movement since 11/5. Yet the pack I managed to snag from Amazon on Tues is out for delivery today, a day earlier than initially reported (assuming it doesn’t get misdelivered, bc goodness knows that’s happened, too 😒).

Giving the Best Buy order until Monday, and then I will be contacting them is there’s no further movement. I hope things work out for anyone else that’s currently dealing with this.

Mine is coming from Best Buy via OnTrac which is evidently a notoriously bad shipping service. At this point it's been delayed for five consecutive days; I'm going to contact Best Buy early next week as well if it doesn't arrive soon, as I'll just assume it's lost at that point (though I'd much rather have the cards than a refund). 😔 I wonder why orders from Best Buy seem to be causing the most trouble for people.

I hope it ends up working out for both of us!!

Got my Amazon Packs. Couldn't be more disappointed.

Out of 12 cards, 8 were duplicates. Still no Sasha or Ione :/

If you have an extra Tiansheng I will trade you Sasha or Ione for him, or both Sasha and Ione for a special character. DM if you wanna work something out!
 
Just recently bought my first ever Amiibo cards, a pack from each series. I didn't get any villagers I particularly wanted for my island but they are super cute and I did have fun opening them!

I feel I picked a bad time to check it out as of course now I want a few more haha. Fingers crossed we all get more stock soon, wishing you all luck~
 
Waiting on a pack From Amazon it says it should be here Monday but has not shipped yet. Will be checking Target later.

Best Buy in the US was solid for me. No issues with their preorder for an order of three packs for both me and my wife’s account and arrived on the 6th so not shabby at all. Walmart on the other hand - add to cart never worked for me on any drop and order from site all the time. I’ve heard they cancelled a lot of their orders too. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
 
Mine from Bestbuy is still in transit but arrived in my town yesterday at 2am, since then, it's in transit, in treatment, in transit, in treatment....??? One of the warehouses is at 1km from my house, it's frustrating. I just hope Shino is in that pack...

Thank you! But I should be good; one of my friends ended up getting both and is willing to trade them :)
 
I'll never understand why Nintendo hypes up fans to buy these cards but upon release day, it's nearly impossible to even acquire the cards in the US especially in nobody states like Oklahoma (my location). I only got the Sanrio cards thanks to a blessing of a member of this forum who sent them to me (only for them to now be sold for cheap on Amazon 😒). Still, I don't get this. There's plenty of stock in other countries yet, in the US it's basically limited supply can't buy as many as you want and never restocked until a year later with only 5 packs. Pre orders are a joke as well. There's no way in hell they can't make more cards. I need Nintendo to either not hype things that they can't be bought unless they're sold at a ridiculous price or make more supply. Don't eve get me started on the ridiculous videos of youtubers opening 50 packs just because they can. :/
 
My cards finally came today! I ordered a maximum of five packets at EB Games in Australia and I think they’ve sold out now.
Each packet has three cards - two villagers and one NPC (my NPC cards were all holographic. Is this normal?)

I had no double ups (!) and I’m super happy I got Celeste, Sherb, Audie and Ione! Would have also loved Shino, Isabelle and Sasha, but still a good haul from only 15 cards.

Ironically I got Sasha because I am not fussed about him. 🤣 I got 2 packs of 3 and none I am particularly excited about. I wish we got the 6 card packs here.
 
Haha, things you can't make up: ups must have put my order on the wrong truck because it's showing up in Ohio, yesterday it was in Massachusetts. I'm not sure what Target they were originating from, but MA is a tad bit closer to me than OH. Oi.
 
Still waiting for that Bestbuy pack shipped on Nov. 6... According to Canada post the package arrived in my city Tuesday night, stayed there until yesterday and got scanned in Ontario today? ...Not sure what to think about this...
I suddenly remember why I'm not using the post from November to January.

My pack from Amazon finally says shipped and arrived at a town north of me. Says it should be here sometime tomorrow.

@Aniko hope you get your pack soon .

Check your GameStops US peeps! I just scored 3 packs at mine. Their limit was 5, but I wanted to leave some for anyone like me who has been struggling to get any.

I went to two Gamestops and they didn't have any on shelves. Was I supposed to ask the employees for some because I didn't do that.
