today's the estimated day that i should be able to pick up my octopath from my local store

it's still "sent to store"

hope the store employee doesn't see the order and decide "eff this guy, canceled"

(laughs)

I guess I'll wait and see what happens
---

(laughs)

gotta be fast

might be dead

Sell it to pay for the order. It's not scalping if I'm selling it for below market price!

did you have a person in mind already

Man, it feels like the only way I can catch these Wario64 deals is if Twitter sends me his tweets via text message, but he tweets so often that I'd just be spammed by Wario64 texts..

you just gotta live with the crap and eventually you get gold like this.

typically I'll only have notifications on for events like black friday, Christmas, steam sale, prime day for price errors. sometimes random things like this pop up, which is great
---

(laughs)

that's nuts. good for them.

at the very least, target shipped out SOMETHING to my store for pickup, so my copy is on a truck somewhere
---

(laughs)

i shouldn't say anything, the status of my octopath is actually still up in the air
---

(laughs)

GANON1025 posted...

Well now here I am, buying octopath at full price like a chump.

suck on that PRIME DAY
---

(laughs)

Aeon Azuran posted...

This topic title confused me and made briefly wonder if 7,162,018 was a prime number. I would like a refund.

oh shit
---

(laughs)

i ordered the dark grey clear joycon replacement covers with a dpad before they sold out

i hope i don't screw up the installation...
---

(laughs)

that was pretty good in some ways and pretty meh in many others

but as a fan film, pretty amazing
---

(laughs)

TheRock1525 posted...

Did I miss all of this?

:(

yes
---

(laughs)

hi

both of you should buy xenoblade 2 and mario and mario rabbids and maybe that zelda game
---

(laughs)

I wonder how much of an impact something like this actually has to target's margins for the day
---

(laughs)

octopath changed from "preparing to ship" to "sent to store!"

hopefully the pickup process is painless and some stickler employee at the store doesn't flag the order

(laughs)

my octopath order is stil alive but preparing to ship only

i guess I'll stop holding my breath tho

(laughs)

if you missed out on a switch last night or got canceled :

not as good (obviously) but it's something
---

(laughs)

once an item is shipped i think you're safe.

im glad people here seem to be making out successfully!

I will lol if my relatively conservative purchase of a single game gets canceled despite people waking away with brand new 4K OLED tvs and multiple consoles (and a new chair damn you @Wanglicious)

in retrospect i should have gone for a fancy vitamix
---

(laughs)

KamikazePotato posted...

I actually ordered the second Switch as a pick-up because I was certain that my delivery version would be cancelled. Woke up today to see that all Targets within 100 miles of me were out of Switches. They site offered to change the Pick Up to a Delivery, so I went why not, maybe it'll somehow go through. And it did! So hey.

hot damn! super congrats
---

(laughs)

congrats!

(laughs)

Kenri posted...

Picked up a Switch this morning. The cashier told me there was a chance I'd be charged the full price since the coupons were fraudulent but like... all my receipts and my bank account show the discounted price still so who knows.

the cashier is an idiot
---

(laughs)

screw your chair and your happiness!

(laughs)

Yankees posted...

Mine is in preparing to ship state. I only bought Octopath with it hoping that a low value item would have a better chance of success. I hardly know a thing about the game, but at that price point, why not try

:( I'm still at preparing to ship
---

(laughs)

wow congrats guys
---

(laughs)

Argath

also what
---

(laughs)

oh no my man target account
---

(laughs)

Wanglicious posted...

oh the expectation is that everything is getting canceled. that's why people immediately tried doing in store pickup to get it before that hit.
the expectation is also that we'll probably get a gift card of some kind with those cancellations.

when it was originally just the $20 coupon and maybe one or two 15% codes, i was thinking this would easily be something target just said meh fuck it

but as the codes kept coming...ya there's no way most if not all of these are canceled
---

(laughs)

tax recalculation? i dunno
---

(laughs)

KamikazePotato posted...

What happens if I cancel a current order? Do the coupon codes I used get 'refunded'? Definitely not something I'm willing to risk without knowledge!

i don't think so, at least not instantly

if you want you can set up a google voice number and retext the codes for the coupons and order again (maybe on a new target account)
---

(laughs)

more like octocodes
---

(laughs)

NBIceman posted...

Arrrrrrgh why is there nothing I want that I don't already have

a new tv?
---

(laughs)

Meow1000 posted...

ptwyyt and ptwxx3 gave the exact same code by the way

So I have 6 applied now

whatever you're ordering

pay for expedited shipping to minimize chances of cancellation
---

(laughs)

Lopen posted...

Honestly I don't even know what I'd get with all these codes so I'm probably not going to bother

Playstation 4 Pro is not able to be shipped and that's really the only thing I have a real want for that Target offers

I mean I guess I could try and pick up a switch but eh. What even is on that console

mario
zelda
xenoblade 2
mario tennis
fire emblem warriors
arms
celeste
golf story
mario kart
mario rabbids
octopath
donkey kong tf (with funky mode)
bayonetta 1 and 2
hyrule warriors
hollow knight
ys8
smash eventually
a bunch of other stuff
---

(laughs)

KamikazePotato posted...

Is there a way to change it to expedited shipping if you've already ordered it?

I see the charge on my credit card, although it's pending. That's something!

i missed this post.
i don't see an option, you'll just have to pray to the price-error gods
---

(laughs)

Menji posted...

I'm not seeing where we enter the code on the checkout screen. Not under the payment section.

text the code to 827438

they text you back a link with a barcode and a promo code

enter that promo code at checkout
---

(laughs)

more codes:

LKWGKL
LKWGKG

they honored my xenoblade 2 collector's edition for $60!

fuck you

i mean they kinda dented the corner of the box when they shipped it tho
---

(laughs)

ninkendo posted...

all I'll say is the last time Target had a pricing error I got in on they honored it even though it was a preorder that was still a few months away

so hoping the same this time

they honored my xenoblade 2 collector's edition for $60!

(laughs)

Dr_Football posted...

I ordered a Switch that is available to pick up tomorrow

Now the waiting game

i would ditch work for the moment that target opens

assuming it doesn't get you fired and you aren't losing ~$160 in the time it takes for you to miss work to pick up the switch itself i guess
---

(laughs)

Bane_Of_Despair posted...

oh they aren't working for me, are they only for mobile or something

no, i ordered on my desktop
