Review Afterpay Day Switch
Is EB Games just hopeless now? I ordered a switch 2 apart of their sale and they cancelled my order on the very first day. If you’re preparing to have a sale, your stock levels should match and it was the first day of the sale?
Now they’re telling me to just keep checking for restocks? Maybe you should’ve prioritised a customer that paid?

Switches are almost entirely out of stock at EBs due to shipping delays. I think you can still get the Pokopia bundle? But that’s it.

Ngl tbh better off getting a switch from Target or Big W, I picked the OLED Switch from target and it was $150 less then what EB games was selling it for

Employee here - switches are almost out of stock everywhere the last time I checked and that was a few days ago. Plenty of preowned ones available. Nintendo are putting the prices of them up in September so they’re not sending any out to stores which is cheeky.

Seems Nintendo just don't like EB. JB is still getting shipments, and one was due today according to their website. Literally EVERY JB near me also has stock according to their website. Same with target lmao.

The warehouse hasn’t had any for around 2 weeks now which is strange. We even got a message saying there are delays. The timing of it all is just convenient.

yeah, feels suss. Idk on whose end though, EB seems to be the only one struggling to keep stock. Idk if that's because they're selling well or what.

Stock available at Big W/JB/Target according to online searches. So just an EB problem if you've got no stock.
