It wouldn't let me process my order because my debit card expiration date is 9/2015. it must have to do with the release date of 12/2015 that was showing up on the site.

You are exactly right. That happened to me with the first wave. Luckily I have a cc that doesn't expire until 2017.

In situations like that (when time is of the essence), just change the expiration date. Honestly, most companies won't reject the card for an incorrect date. Some don't even check the address, name, or 3 codes on the back either. They just run the # for the balance and confirm that there's enough.

Really?? I'd be skeptical of that, I've entered the wrong security code or expiration date many a times and it does get caught up. Maybe sites whose companies aren't as susceptible to some sort of information theft backlash wouldn't care as much, but I thought that info was pretty important.

 
Might wanna call local gamestops. Just walked into one in louisville and they got 10 sonics in that weren't preorders. Just heads up. No other wave 3 though.

Thanks for the tip. Luckily i have a pre-order at Gamestop for in-store pick-up. I have GCU and wanted to use it at BestBuy but the shipping killed it for me.

What exactly is the Red Card? I keep hearing about it but never understood it

It's the target store card where you can either link to your bank account or get one that is a Visa credit card. You get 5% off all purchases made. I have both and break even for not having to deal with the Walmart crowd.

It's a penalty in soccer. Means target keeps making foul plays.




Ok now the helpful answer. It's a debit card from target linked to your bank account where you get 5% off everything and 60 day return period for what you buy with it. There's a target credit card too that does the sane thing but is like a normal credit card, not tied to your bank.
 
You know that Charizard's sculpt is going to be ballin'.  It's going to be right up there with King Dedede and Bowser.

Also, I think I'm one of the only ones that likes the SSB Wario outfit compared to his original yellow suit. 

 
I have been told by a friend that Charizard was going to be rare , i agreed i never foresaw a future in which he was produced in the same quantities as pikachu , they can repeat history an make Charizard as rare as the original pokemon Card

Just got a single king dedede from newegg. It came in a perfectly size box with bubble bag packing within. Beautiful, gorgeous, good. I'm very surprised and thought I'd share.
 
Sonic and megaman stocks were replenished a bit at best buys yesterday and today, but I'm sure they are all snatched up for the most part. Check the site for local stock.

And if I link it to, lets say my debit card, can I still show them the Red Card and pay in cash?
 
I never double posted in my life...why is this here? I dont know what your talking about....shut up

No it has to be linked to the bank account and to get the 5% you have to use the red card. Online works a little different.

I get the linking thing but what if I dont have any money in my account and only have cash (I sometimes keep a few bills in case of emergencies) they wont accept it with cash and the discount? That's weird
 
eBay auctions for the 3B amiibo.

Mega man amiibo: 1,216

Sonic amiibo: 1,047

Meta Knight amiibo: 545

Ike amiibo: 519

King Dedede: 474

Edit: Active... I found it interesting that Mega Man is the most common.

It's done on the pin pad, they don't enter anything or press a button. They tell you a total, you swipe your red card, then the 5% comes off and your total is updated. So yeah have to have the cash in the account. I've always had the money in there but I do know it doesn't show up on my account right away. May depend on your bank so it's possible you could buy, then put the money in. However I can't verify if that would work or not.

Was able to pick up another Toad from bestbuy earlier. Keep hearing this one will be limited from the SMB series....though shipping of $2.99 killed it for me.

I love to purchase from Target.com with 5% redcard discount and free shipping. For those who don't have a Target RedCard, I highly recommend it. It's free to sign up, no credit check required. It just links from your bank. All you have to do is provide checking account number.

The $2.99 shipping charge isn't so tough to swallow if you're a GCU member.
 
I am only busy for two hours today (busy being completely unable to check my phone for wave 4 pre order alerts). If wave 4 goes up between 3 - 5 PST and sells out, I will officially bow out of the amiibo race and will sell my collection.

How is it weird? it's not like a membership card.

not really. it is not a discount card, but instead a debit card. it is totally worth it though.
