PSA: The new series 5 amiibo cards pre-order have started!!!

[ACJedi]

I just managed to order 4 more packs to ship from Target! Keep checking the app! It seems to intermittently become available again. I ordered 4 earlier and the 4 again just now. I have no idea if they will cancel one? Or both? How does Target handle multiple orders of this item?

YES! The first time they went up for shipping I placed 4 orders of 4 packs all within 3minutes, and every order has been received! You shouldn't worry.

Do you know what happens if you cancel an item from the order before it ships?

I wouldn't risk it. Just include an item preorder with a date far out to give yourself plenty of time to cancel it.

Lol yeah, "I risked it" last night, and cancelled the items I didn't want...... so I will be able to report back about this once I know if it ships or it gets completely cancelled. As of now the order is still ative.

Thanks for taking one for the team. Let us know!

I was thinking of going out tonight, so I decided to call EB Games (Canada Gamestop) to see if they had any packs. I was told they were likely not going to have any for at least another month or so. Oof.

I just chatted with a customer rep from Target online, they were zero help. They basically just said wait and see. lol.... I contacted them to find out if indeed the entire order would be cancelled after I cancelled the items that dropped me below that 35.00 threshold. And if that was the case, could they add those items back to my order to ensure it would go through? They said they can not modify the order now and to wait and see what happens....

So I just got an email saying the order had shipped with a tracking number included.

 

[LumiMoonPlays]

Oh no! I suspected it was the same place. What email did you write to? I want to request a refund then too.

I responded to the email address they used when they sent me the order confirmation. I did it as a reply so they'd see the order right there and I also put the order number into the email title.

I'm legit convinced that these cards don't exist anymore.

[/QUOTEI got a couple packs off Amazon when they had them that one time...... Since that, any luck that I've had has been with target. And I've gotten quite a few packs ordering online for delivery, or for store pick-up and they've even had them when I've gone in-store.... Imo for the US people, target is the best bet.

Just replied to my order confirm. I'll report back what they say to me. Thanks

Do you have a Toys R Us close? Yesterday they had some in my town (out of stock today)

Just confirming that it was the same place for me too.

How weird that they wouldn’t just refund you too. Maybe they think people would prefer to wait and be first in line if they do get more stock?

@LumiMoonPlays Has the money gotten into your account yet? Mine hasn’t, so I thought I’d check.

EDIT: I lowkey both love and hate how we’ve just been referring to it as “the Australian store” as though there’s only a single one.

It is showing as a refund on my PayPal account but hasn't posted to my bank yet. BUT the exchange rate changed so they are only refunding me $134.27 when they actually charged me $144.75 back on Oct 24th. So I called PayPal and complained and they finally offered me a voucher for the difference that I can apply to future things I buy using PayPal. I know it's a small amount but even losing $10 when the store is at fault pissed me off.

And that is actually hilarious that we have all been calling it "the Australian store"

just saw that Target has Amiibos on their website at the moment.

I almost bought some just now, but talked myself out of it. They require a $35 purchase to ship

 

[Aronthaer]

Whoever just bought the last 4 packs from target while I was updating my expired card info, I hope you get the cards you want

last night I purchased 4 pks plus an item to hit the 35.00 mark, then cancelled everything but the amiibos. Today the amiibos shipped and I was refunded the difference. So there is a work around it seems.

 

[Hay]

I work at Target (ship from store section) and yall we never have them.. :c someone ordered 32 packs while another ordered14 haha. We have a negative inventory cuz our count is crazy

 

[Blueskyy]

The Target site has shipping available but I’m not dropping my money on these anymore. Hoping people can get them!

 

[Shock]

Heads up for stateside folks; Target appears to have restocked yet again. I just successfully ordered some using @ACJedi's trick of adding an Eternals Funko Pop to push my order over the $35 mark.

What's funny is that I saw the page show up in search and could only select 1 pack to add to my cart, but then was able to bump it up to 4 from my cart. I checked after I ordered, and it appears one can add 4 from the get go now. I must've caught it just as they were adding the new stock

 

[PPUAlchemist]

I just ordered 4 packs from my Target app, hoping they ship. I remembered y’all talking about the funko pop trick so that’s what I did. Here’s hoping.
