An Amazon representative has confirmed on Reddit that they won’t be taking pre-orders for the next batch of amiibo. Instead, the figures will go up on the day, which is September 11th, and they will be listed during normal working hours. The representative says that they have been successful in doing this in the past and so they figure this is the best way of selling them going forward.
We’re going to be putting them up the day they launch (9/11/15). They’ll go up during normal business hours. We’ve been pretty successful doing it this way for wave 4 and Palutena, so no reason to change what’s working for us.
Thanks, MasterPikachu6
I prefer it that way at least there’s a chance to get them
Hopefully their servers don’t explode like gamestops’ did.
they will still not have enough to satisfy demand
LOLOLOLOL…
Oh, was that a serious question? Umm. No. There will never be enough to meet demand unless you want Mario, Link or Zelda.
Still liking the way amazon is treating amiibo, was able to get a palutena, hopefully I can get bowser jr, and Samus
Here in Germany it is soooo easy to get amiibos. But I still buy the ani cans through my am arian address at release due to saving around 30%
Amazon got sick of that crap. Can’t blame em. Lol.
lol finally. i hope all those scalpers gets cancer in the nuts. fuck them.
What about women scalpers? I have the pleasure of knowing one (she has since seen the evil of her ways).
They’ll get cancer in their women “nuts” then.
This might be my best bet at getting Ganondorf, Zero Suit and Olimar. I wish all my fellow hunters the best of luck.
What are normal working hours?
LOL. Exactly. Try normally start around 3am EST, regular folk 9am, and their site is 24/7. SMH.

Amazon’s listing of amiibos are messy. Most amiibos sold on Amazon are imports from Japan.
Anyone know when exactly orders will come up? Or will everyone have to be refreshing the page every hour or so on September 10-11? I assume it’s going to be midnight, but which timezone?
Guess so. I have work on those two days so gotta look for a store that still takes pre-orders.

Good. Up yours, scalpers.~
Now I just need to know what time exactly Ganondorf & Zero Suit Samus will go up for preorder in my part of the States. Then I just have to stay up past 10 pm to get them. Hopefully getting them will be as “easy” as getting Palutena.
I want Dr. Mario, too, but since it’s Mario, I doubt he’ll be rare so I can wait & get him another time.
