Poll of the Day > idk if I should buy a new Switch from one of these cheap sellers on Amazon.

(+) Yeah! (+)

They're selling it for less than $299, which is the MSRP, I thought, but they all have like 1 review...

Also I'm pretty sure it's still sold out in my area

They'll probably send you some leap frog tablet with Switch written on it with a marker

Well Amazon is good about siding in the buyer's favor I thought...

Wasn't this topic on here like a week ago?

Anyways, don't buy from them, they are fake sellers. Just wait a month or so since the next shipment of Switch consoles are due then and Nintendo has supposedly doubled their production on them (plus they fixed the left switchcon problem in the latest ones).

I didn't see the topic from a week ago.

And thanks.

There are not enough games for the Switch to be worth the purchase yet IMO.

I have a Switch but there isn't much to do on it other than playing Zelda.

Zelda is awesome and you can get several weeks of gameplay out of it though, so at least there's that

I wouldn't trust several hundred bucks to a seller with 1 review.

In general I agree although I did take a risk on buying a PS4 from someone on ebay a few years ago that had no feedback and she sent it out with no problems. I guess I got lucky.

Or you can wait for a price drop around Christmas when there will hopefully be more than one game and they will improve the very damaging design flaws.

Realistically, you aren't likely to save any more than about $50 by waiting until this Christmas. That's potentially worthwhile, but I personally felt getting Zelda sooner was worth the extra money.

But your now system has damaging defects bro. If it's already having all of these problems who knows what's on the horizon in a year.

It's Nintendo, they'll come out with a new model in two years.

Not sure about Amazon, but it's EBay are the true bastards when it comes to defending buyers.

Ebay really sides with the buyers, so I don't know what you mean by "bastards", unless you're talking from a seller's perspective. If you are, fair enough, but the TC is obviously looking to buy here so it doesn't make sense

I wouldn't buy a Switch at all. A tablet with a plastic screen? The production quality is terrible. It's a rushed design. Just wait for the "New Switch". Early adopters get screwed.
