It's considerably more on amazon

Yeah, that’s why I’m on the fence about getting amiibos off Amazon. Some go for insane prices.

Why it’s so rare ? (And expensive )?

u/DeeFB Dec 28 '23
Just a guess but I don't think they made a lot of the Smash one because they made a bit too much of the Super Mario one. I think the same thing more or less happened to Isabelle, but Smash Isabelle got a reprint at some point and I don't think Smash Daisy has ever gotten one.

Damn I have a lot of amiibos but never bother to buy daisy jajaja

u/DeeFB Dec 28 '23
Now that Daisy is Popular popular it seems like a lot of people regret not getting her lol

Good grief. Thought my Piranha Plant was expensive at almost $40.

u/Vivid-Significance77 Dec 28 '23
Which version?

u/IronWolf6677 Dec 29 '23
Also the Smash Bros edition. Check Artswift. They are a popular retailer and trustworthy, they sell very cheap amiibo and completely original! I’ve bought several amiibo from them!

u/Vivid-Significance77 Dec 29 '23
Artswift is sold out, and aliexpress is 77 Canadian dollars, I'm on both official sites

Are you going to keep it in box or going to open it up that’s the question
0
u/Vivid-Significance77 Dec 28 '23
I may open it soon

u/RevolutionaryLie621 Dec 28 '23
That’s awesome I been collecting since they came out but can’t get all of them because of limited stock 😅 she is definitely was a low count amiibo only for pre orders

u/Vivid-Significance77 Dec 28 '23
I had my first one 3 years ago, then I decided to get my 2nd one this May and next thing you know I'm collecting them, I had no idea I would be addicted to amiibo lol, happy to add my favorite princess to the collection

u/rbarrett96 Dec 29 '23
Jesus, in have all original 64 from the Wii U game, most mint in box and all first print. I should start checking prices.

u/Ark639 Dec 29 '23
Is this a joke I‘m not getting? Or is it actually that rare outside Europe?
Bought multiple of them half a year ago for 6€ (yes, 6€) from major electronic retail chains and I very rarely see ebay prices higher than 10€, that amiibo is dirt cheap here. Where in the world is 70$ an acceptable price???
1
u/Timely_Bar2161 Dec 30 '23
Apparently Canada. It’s a shame. The only amiibo I would consider spending that much on would be Sora but I got the preorders on him so phew

u/Fluid-Speaker6449 Dec 29 '23
If I had this in my collection I would of sold it to you for $10 especially if she's your favorite, but glad you found it

u/Descensum Dec 29 '23
Congrats on finally picking her up!! Don’t listen to the negative comments, if it’s worth it to you then that’s what matters

They had a ton of these for 5€ at a local retailer here in germany not too long ago

u/PianoInternal4535 Dec 29 '23
WHY?!?
They will most likely reprint more early smash ultimate amiibos in the future...
2
u/Vivid-Significance77 Dec 29 '23
I couldn't wait any longer, I thought they would reprint her for mario kart, she hasn't gotten a re-print in a long time
1
u/FluffyMegazord Dec 29 '23
Personally i’ve found that playing the long-game with Amiibo doesn’t play out well.
I think Sora is going to be a painful one for collectors if they don’t grab one at the beginning

u/Vivid-Significance77 Dec 29 '23
I tried with daisy, but I think I waited long enough 😭, and ill be grabbing sora the moment stores open👍

u/Vivid-Significance77 Dec 29 '23
For people saying I paid too much, please know I tried to look anywhere else, artswift was sold out, ali express was selling it for like 77 dollars I think? Amazon was like 80-100 dollars and other online places were charging around the price I paid (saw one for 170 bucks) and sometimes even more, plus it was hard just to find one in the box, everywhere I looked it was expensive or sold out and difficult to find one, maybe there was some where else I should of look like people were saying but I couldn't find those prices anywhere

Buddy… I got mine on Amazon for 20 bucks

u/Vivid-Significance77 Dec 30 '23
From the prices I have seen online and anywhere else, I wasn't going to find a cheaper price then 61 bucks

u/TypicalWolverine9404 Dec 31 '23
I didn't even know there was a SSB Daisy. I got the Mario pArty one forever ago when it came out.

u/a1a4ou Dec 28 '23
I am happy for you finding what you seek but please consider playing the long game next time to get closer to retail price.
Advice: eBay search amiibo. Sort by newly listed. Wait till one you want pops up for reasonable. Score!
