Hmm, are you only looking for trades, or would you sell outright? LMK!
How long will this amiibo craze last?

Well that's a good sign at least. Did you order any others from GS or just Shulk?

Just Shulk and Mega Man. So one got shipped and the other got delayed. I'm going to be ordering more of the 4th waves since I use more of the characters in that set.

I haven't heard anything about my Shilk preorder. To be honest I am kinda scared. I ordered mine online and chose in store pick up - but given that I recently learned GS does not charge you until you pick up your item I am very scared some employee holds onto it for their own. All of my wave 3 preorders have been through GS, damn wish I just had them shipped to me instead...

A mom with her kid were yelling at a Target employee for Rosa chick. She was threatening to get him fired. I felt bad so I stepped in and told her "If you wanted it bad enough you should of been there Sunday morning as opposed to most likely being at a buffet. ......fucking fat bitch.

Sorry for the delay in answering, but for those asking about Sheik, I dont have any more BUT I will gladly be on the lookout for more of her. Also I do know she is set for official release this Friday at GameStop to coinicide with the release of the new 3DS. Shulk is also set to release in store this Friday. This is at GameStop.
This Friday at Toys r US marks the release of Sonic, Ike, DeDeDe, and Mega Man.
Meta Knight is the last to get an offical release on the 20th at Best Buy.
So if everything is correct this looks like the release list
February 13
New 3DS (all retailers)
Majoras Mask 3D (all retailers)
Shulk (GameStop exclusive)
Sheik (GameStop)
Toon Link (GameStop)
Ike (Toys r Us, Best Buy)
DeDeDe (Toys r Us, Best Buy)
Mega Man (Toys r Us)
Sonic (Toys r Us)
February 20
MetaKnight (Best Buy exclusive)

It seems that it was re-stock day in Toronto stores. Walked into a TrU and picked a Lucario off the shelf, a couple King Dedede, a couple Sheik, and a couple Fox. Just throwing it out there, but if anyone has a Pit or Rosalina they would trade for Dedede or Fox, let me know.

A whole lot of driving around and asking. Having employees check inventory and shipping lists.
Also of note, GameStop doesnt have any SET release dates so when their amiibo arrive in store they can sell them THAT day.

That woman is a piece of shit for taking her aggression of the situation out on an employee who has NO control over supply or distribution. What a fucking waste of carbon she is.
Of course this situation wouldn't exist if Nintendo would knock off the artificial shortage nonsense and just replenish retailers with inventory like every other for-profit company would.
No Lucario to be had at the TRU by my house. I'm not really surprised though as like I said the area is rife with scalpers and resellers aplenty. I saw they had a 3 for $33 sale and also noticed they had 3 Sheiks in stock. I picked up 2 of the 3 for my cousins and since my Godchild was with me she picked Peach so we could get them for the sale price.
I guess the girl running the area determined that Sheik was rare because I had two in hand and after I inquired about Lucario she slinked over to the display case where the last Sheik was, pulled it out, and ran it over to the customer service desk to put it on hold.

I've started getting shipping estimate updates from amazon for the various pre-orders. I guess amazon is months behind retail release dates.

I think all of you are bat-shit crazy. These things will be worth jack-shit in 10 years...

Paying retail? (not that I even know what these things are even going for)...sure, ok. The "insta-value" bullshit? I will never understand that element.
