Darth Vader | 154 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Just got mine to get me to checkout. It's hanging up a bit in some spots but I think it'll end up going through. Keep trying! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adorabear | 69 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 It took nearly two and a half hours, but I finally got those damn pins! After it taking an hour to add to the cart and another hour to go back entering address, it's now all over. I was really concerned since I got an error after entering card info, but thankfully I got a confirmation email and it all seems fine. Good luck to anyone else still stuck in the checkout process and I hope the codes go back up soon for those who haven't gotten them yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeldaFreak | 3,600 Events Team · Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Happy for those of you who managed to get it. Looks like those of us who didn't get a code will be left in the dust, but oh well. Maybe someday people will sell them for reasonable prices.

Gloves | 11,759 Administrator · Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 It's crazy to think that back in the day there were offers like this that had so few people send in for them that they're among the rarest collectibles today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate all the optimism people are throwing my way, but I've already accepted that I'm completely SOL because Nintendo are a bunch of rat bastards They're out of codes, plain and simple. If I had known they would start giving out codes well before when they said they would, maybe I would've been on it a bit quicker... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Vader | 154 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 aaaaaaand the shop is down. Never got my checkout to go through. Kept telling me there was an error processing my payment. Nothing is wrong with my payment method. Now I'll be wasting the rest of my day checking the eshop nonstop for a stupid set of pins. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably just wait until all the initial hype dies down and see if anyone sells their set for like $20 and just get it that way. Although things aren't looking great right now considering people are already buying them for $100+... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Jockey | 20 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Didn't get a code, collectable pin set no longer available. That's unfortunate, but it is what it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RegularGuyGamer | 2,011 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I'm not gna lie, I was hounding those things. I made sure my take were complete ASAP and was ready right before 3 to get the code. I figured it would be a mess so I planned accordingly. I haven't seen people this insane for Nintendo since 2007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted September 21, 2020 Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 Looks like claiming a code earlier does hold your place in line. When I go to the website, I've still got a code and one pin set in my cart. Unfortunately, I still can't check out. I either get a never ending loading symbol or my credit card gets rejected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm getting the credit card declined. I've tried every card I have trying to get it to process but it's still the same message. I guess I'll just have to try again tomorrow. Hopefully I can still get my hands on a set. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox | 1,665 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 WTF are you even going to do with these things? They are going to sit in a storage bin till the end of time, next to my InFamous cuff links. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been rocking my sheika eye pin and my Pokemon pin lately. I have a nice green sports coat the Mario and Yoshi pin will go nice with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
