Profiteering from Nintendo's amiibos

[WiiCube_2013]

Speaking of hoarding Amiibos so others can't buy them, there's a guy out there buying all Rosalinas in the world.

Anyone have a Rosalina for sale?

That's @mariotehplum

According to Mario Party 10 Japanese website there's a new Rosalina amiibo coming so you might want to wait for that instead. It's very similar to Peach's amiibo of the Super Mario Collection.

Thanks for the heads up, but I'm not looking to buy, I was just making a joke about trying to scalp the hoarder guy for mega moneyz. But it's good to know.

Where did you get the Jigglypuff?

One thing everyone needs to consider is someone living paycheck to pay check will more than likely miss out because there are no rules to the amount one can buy, for example I worked at a local store just last week where we had whatever is available and we don't do preorders. One guy comes in and buys either 2 or all 4 of one character so its impossible to get anything unless you stock it then immediately take a break at that type of place. For consumers who walk in when that are off work the selection is damn near nothing. I'll never have marth or villager because we only got 4 on launch then another 4 randomly.

A friend of mine also pre-ordered a batch of the new amiibos so I'm guessing he can send you one. Keep in mind it'll be £13.33 (Amazon price) and whatever the cost is to Netherlands. To US an amiibo costs £5 so I suppose it'll be £3-4 to Netherlands.

You can always keep an eye on Amazon's listing to see when it'll pop up again: http://www.amazon.co.uk/amiibo-Smash-Jigglypuff-Nintendo-Wii/dp/B00VK8HT28.

Gameware.at has Marth's amiibo but it's around £21-ish (possibly more to US) so that'll probably not make you wanna buy it. I wouldn't.

Yes. Please tell your friend that I'd like one and let him PM me please.

Turns out I have a spare Jigglypuff on my pre-order list and I forgot about it, so I take it you want it?

Initially it'll be £10.99 and the shipping, non-tracked £3-4's I guess.

Yes I want it. Could you please PM me about the details? I can't PM you.
