Ingram85 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 AmazonUK limiting it to one per customer now and are reducing existing orders of more than one console. Good news for consumers and a big middle finger to scalpers it seems. Either that or they aren't getting the amount of stock they were hoping for?

It seems Amazon are cancelling a lot of the original orders that were priced at £79.99. I am presuming this is because the SKU wasn't set up properly in the rush to get it on the website.

Daweii Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Good move ultimately. Yes there may be a few disgruntled legit customers getting an order or two cancelled, but the vast majority with 2-3+ consoles on order are selling them on. Amazon are pro-actively doing something because they know eBay won't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of people legitimately effected by the move will be tiny in comparison to the number of people missing out if they let it happen. It should happen more often. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am absolutely delighted about this. But people will just put them back on when they are out. Just be great if the people who brought 10 of them are lumbered with them as there is low demand/or enough to go around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted July 7, 2017 Author Moderator Share Posted July 7, 2017 "Ess-ness" or "Snezz". Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted July 7, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted July 7, 2017 'Snezz'. Only other acceptable names are 'Super Nintendo' if you're a Yank or Super Famicom if your specifically referring to the Japanese version. Perhaps Ess Enn Ee Ess. I've never heard anyone call it an 'S-Nes'. Ever. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
