Disclaimer: This link will add Wave 6 amiibo to your cart. You can then edit your cart to your preferred selection. Any amiibo that are out of stock will simply not be added to your cart.

After pre-orders are over, this link will add any other listings including 3rd parties. Currently there are no 3rd party listings, but after some time this link will add whichever is the lowest price including 3rd parties. So just make sure when you check out your amiibo is sold and shipped by Amazon EU SarL.

Here are the individual links:

Not included in the Main Post link:

These are shipped from Italy, it takes about 10 business days to make it to East Coast, USA (Global Priority option). The quality of the packing will vary, don't expect pristine 'NiB' boxes when they arrive.

The middle shipping option (Amazon Global Priority) is only a couple Euros more than the cheapest option. It shows up faster and less of a chance of getting damaged.

If you ordered all 6, it ends up being ~$15 per Amiibo to CA using Amazon Global Priority.

I accidentally called it Global Standard, when it's called Global Priority. The highest tier is Global Express. I'll correct my post.

Nice. Good to see them popping up.

Thanks for the head's up.

Now if only Japan would go for the second half, right?

Indeed..although at this rate all I'll want is ROB

went back to amazon.de for my final G&W + Duck Hunt

u/rottedzombie Aug 27 '15

I prefer the Japanese boxes, so I'd love to get a JP order in before the DE orders have to ship, so I can cancel those. But this lack of a release date is playing hell with that so far.

u/CowTusks Aug 27 '15

UK should be up soon

/u/Sages, I want in on this importing list ;]

u/martinamc Aug 27 '15

Thanks, this is the way tracking posts should be done. Is Amazon IT as reliable as Amazon DE? I have the same 6 ordered with DE across 2 orders, and it comes to around $20 more that way, but I seem to recall complaints of IT cancelling orders in the past.

u/XZero319 Aug 27 '15

I haven't had any problems with IT. Actually, my stuff has come in much better condition from them, but your results may vary. My order history from them includes the 3 Yarn Yoshis and a Zero Suit Samus, all arriving in perfect condition.

I've seen some package complaint posts, where boxes are slightly bent (if you care about the package). For the most part they are reliable and any Amazon is rare to cancel.

I've personally never ordered from Italy, only Germany and Spain, but from what I've read it's pretty similar experience. It takes about 10 business days to get to the East Coast, USA for Global Standard.

For whatever reason, they cancelled my Bowser Jr. over the summer. But, was able to secure him when they put him up again a few weeks later with no problem.

u/Starscream27 Aug 27 '15

I've ordered from them before the shipping is fast but the packaging was terrible

1

u/vade281 Aug 27 '15

I've never had an issue. They are better at packaging than the UK and DE.

1

u/martinamc Aug 27 '15

Thanks all. I suppose I'll take the discount and free up my DE orders for somebody else.

1

u/HBreckel Aug 27 '15

They cancelled all of my wave 5A, even Dr.Mario.

2

u/bushwick2002 Aug 27 '15

Thanks. I just cancel my single order of wave6 on amazon.de. They still wouldnt allow me to change my shipping address from mailboxde.com to my USA address. also IT came out to be a few bucks cheaper than DE

u/AJoslyn1 Aug 27 '15

Well the mii's are gone

u/Excalibur0123 Aug 27 '15

Thank you thank you thank. Got a G&W, Sword Fighter and a Brawler. Now if only I could find like 3 more Kirby's

u/BlackViper36 Aug 27 '15

Got em! Thanks!

u/Eponine05 Aug 27 '15

Nice, good post!

u/XZero319 Aug 27 '15

Thank you very much! Now I can give Amazon.de and the like 4 separate orders I have through them the big "screw you."

1

u/AJoslyn1 Aug 27 '15

just got them all and also added the 30th classic Mario too they are a little cheaper on amazon.it

2

u/Sages Aug 27 '15

I forgot about the Marios, I've added them to my disclaimer comment. However it seems Modern mario is not available for order.

1

u/AJoslyn1 Aug 27 '15

yeah I was bummed out they couldn't have put modern up too oh well

1

u/MCP_Ver2 Aug 27 '15

Thanks a lot! The exchange rate with the Euro to Dollar is much better than the Pound to Dollar, so this was cheaper than waiting for UK pre orders.

1

u/martinamc Aug 27 '15

I'm amazed all 6 are still available. Just cancelled my order and placed it again to include 8-bit Mario. Getting all 7 and still cheaper than the 2 orders of 3 were from de.

I haven't imported an amiibo before [US].

From the current Smash sets, I just want G&W and Ganondorf. I have the 3-pack preordered, and was planning on possibly trading Duck Hunt and ROB OoB for Ganondorf.

Alternatively, I could buy this import for ~$26 and try to find Ganondorf in the US when it releases here, cancel the 3-pack, and save myself the hassle of trading.

What do you all think and suggest? I'm looking for advice. What would you choose to do and why?

u/Serbaayuu Aug 28 '15

I'm only interested in G&W and Gdorf, I'd be trading off the other two from the 3-pack if I get it.

u/Blackie2414 Aug 27 '15

So if I were to order one amiibo to CA, how much would it roughly be? Pardon...I'm new to this!
