One that takes £200 of your hard earned money and gives you nothing in return

Many thanks. Was gonna drive 40 mins to my nearest Smyths tomorrow morning hoping to get the Switch and MK8 for £309.99. Using your codes I’ve grabbed both for £294.98 in total and I save on petrol money and time. :smile:

the introduction of a rival can be a romantic turn off - try extended bouts of foreplay :man:

I was going to buy a yacht with a landing pad for a Harrier Jump Jet and a decent kitchen area I can boil the Brussels sprouts I was going to buy from Tesco on the weekend but I am waiting for a Spaceship :man:

9 Neon currently showing in stock, I refreshed the screen and it went down to 6.

I asked them this morning and it was put on the wrong van. I can see it going missing. They said they will resend if not arrived by tomorrow but guess that depends on stock :-(

They attempted delivery yesterday but back out for delivery today, hoping it comes just after the F1. The last time I had the external factors thing, then it turned out the courier had lost the item and amazon twiddled their fingers until a few days had passed. Hope this isn't the case for you.

Back in stock, be quick!

Its back in stock boys, get it while you can!

Has anyone received it yet? Mine was meant to arrive yesterday but early hours of this morning I had notification there is a delay and when I check tracking it says a delay due to external factors? Any ideas what that means? And delivery expected by 4 may now yet tracking shows it was on the van yesterday

Cool. Here's my mate Dave the Elephant- I've done a picture, so it's totally true.


You'll notice he's the same colour as the grey Switch you bought a couple of months ago & returned (then exchanged for the neon one in your picture, it seems)

That's good. I'd hate to know that your IMAGINARY Switch was suffering from things that 99.9% of ACTUAL Switch owners weren't experiencing.

Yeah but I didn't wait cause 1. my Wii U died and I wanted to play Zelda and 2. I could get £40 off, I'm getting a replacement today, if that's the same then I'll get a refund.

was the same mate but glad I got it, zelda is epic. Also as I am a pc gamer mainly now I like how the Nintendo games fill a space that does not overlap, unlike ps4 and xbox one where all the games are the same as PC mostly.

I'm surprised you bought one. It was only two months ago you said that you were going to wait three years...


...but then again, you also said a screen protector was unnecessary, so shame about your scratched screen...

If I was a pessimistic person, I'd say that you're just Jumping into any Switch deal that gets posted and listing a lot of made-up faults- but I bet you never actually bought one...
(oh, and did you get the pro controller for £30? That's the most you said you'd pay for one)

If you're talking about the scratch-prone screen then I'm just going to get a screen protector. The £9 from Orzly seems pretty good, doesn't scratch even after taking a knife to it so should be fine with the dock.

Yeah the first day with mine and the screen is scratched thanx to the dock. I slid the thing in and all I felt and heard was like if you scraped a knife slowly on plastic. I took it out and it's scratched.... wtf? I'm taking it back tomorrow as that should not be the case.

Also the controllers are so loose when you slide them into the unit, the slightest tap from below and they come off and the unit falls out. I don't like how loud the fan is either, you hear it making this clicking noise, you only hear it in a dead quiet room, but it's annoying.

At least the Pro controller is nice, shame it has no analogue triggers.


+ I recommend everyone buy digital only, the door you have to open to slide the cards in is only held on by thin plastic, that'll be the thing broken off on all used units on eBay, just like the doors on the Wii.

Yep. Not going near this until the hardware bugs are addressed. They are pretty serious and will continue to be an issue long after the warranty expires.

Tesco is still showing Neon in stock at the same price using code - TDX-KPYK

I bought this yesterday, should be coming tomorrow. Thank you for the heads up!

Now showing as OOS :-(

cheers ordered saves me paying full wack at them robbers Game.

Google is giving a $257 manufacture cost estimate. I thought it would have been cheaper than that but hey there you go.

Tesco still has stock for the same price though :-)

You'll often see new Amazon Marketplace sellers heavily undercutting films, books etc. The intent is for other sellers with automated price matching to beat the deal by 1p. I imagine the £200 Swich "seller" is just trying to get one for £200 themselves.

Missed it :disappointed:

DAMN IT, it expired :'(

OOS

Delivery May 10th-12th

Have some heat as it's a good deal on the RRP, but I'd leave this on the shelves (unless you are a diehard Nintendo fan) until it's at least got a decent catalogue of games

The Neon looks better in person than the Grey, but also you can always just buy Grey Joycon, but you cannot buy the Neon as Nintendo switched the colours around for the stand alone Joycon.

Same "problem" got a giftcard for 40gbp I could get it for 219.99 (after the code for 20 off and 40 next from gift card) .... is it worth it to wait?? :/ Badly want to play MK 8 Deluxe...

Do you think its worth waiting till tomorrow to see if the grey edition goes on stock or will that be too risky so should I go for it now instead? with gift cards I can get it for 225 :smile:

No unfortunetly i tried the code and it didnt work.They have it available for delivery today aswel.

Does this work with prime now?

Ah so tempted and it's payday

Scenario was worse for Nintendo only a couple of years ago when there was pretty much no space for Nintendo...4 game boxes worth of space is 4 game boxes more than there were before.

More to the point they're currently paying £270 cash for the neon console so you could actually make £11 profit if you wanted to :smiley:

EVERYBODY bought one but I think comment was fair - they were left gathering dust by many soon after purchase.

I thought this was a brilliant read. Thank you. :man:

Do you want to tell Nintendo the Wii wasn't successful? I'm sure their accountants would disagree....

My local CEX has one for sale. Only £320!

Bargain.....:neutral_face:

Like all things Nintendo this has had a massive sold out clamour for it and now will come the drop off as casuals simply aren't interested in it. Just look at home much space it even gets in supermarkets and places like Smyths....next to zero. My local Tesco has given it literally 4 games boxes worth of space. There's only Zelda and some other party rubbish for sale anyway. This is only recently after launch. It'll be done by the end of the year.

The last time Nintendo ruled the world was the SNES. Everything after has been a misstep, be it n64 using cartridges, gamecube not playing DVDs, Wii being for parents to put in a cupboard after xmas and the Wii U just being crap and out of date on launch.

For those that picked this up - do join us over at the HUKD Switch owners thread - http://www.hotukdeals.com/misc/hukd-nintendo-switch-owners-thread-2621430

£260 was my biting point so I've joined the ranks too...

No idea why this is expired. Code still works.

I was going to buy a yacht with a landing pad for a Harrier Jump Jet and a decent kitchen area I can boil the Brussels sprouts I was going to buy from Tesco on the weekend but I am waiting for a Spaceship :man:

Was going to buy a yacht, though I think I'll wait for the Lite or Pro version of the one I was looking at.

I will not be buying a Harrier jump jet :laughing:

Does anyone know how long the offer runs till?

same price tesco direct with code TDX-KPYK https://www.tesco.com/direct/nintendo-switch-console-neon-redneon-blue/364-1064.prd?skuId=364-1064

I need to stay away from this site for a little while - at least until I've sold my Wii u and my cars passed its MOT!

Not 100% sure on this but I think if there is any kind of queue in place on a amazon order then adjusting payment method puts you at the back of the queue anyway.
Just what I heard when I was ordering a gtx 1070.

Ha, I stupidly cancelled my order and reordered the Grey version using the code, not realising I could just adjust the payment method! Duh. Back to the end of the queue I go. :-S I can see this is going to be a looooong wait.

Mine will appeal to a wider audience. Although humorous, you were too subtle in delivery. Good effort though. :man:

Sure thing, lol

That was the joke, d'oh

Damn I bought mine a couple of weeks ago. I'm having some wifi connection problems though, I could return it then get this and hope it's better. I'd lose some zelda progress though..

has anyone bought from 200 seller

will it bend?

the introduction of a rival can be a romantic turn off - try extended bouts of foreplay :man:

Hmmm, I was hyped when this Launched... This is a Good Price & Also Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is on Offer for £34.99 as well... I Just wouldn't use it that much though which is a shame. Great for those who travel alot though and want some good quality gaming on the go. I'll have to stick to My PS4 & Xbox One S.

Glad you got your money back. and hope you got another office package to help with your spelking and grammar. :stuck_out_tongue:

I'll wait for the inevitable lite or pro model that will address the heat warping and screen issues.

I see a third party seller listing it for £200. Seller rating of 0% Positive with 1 review.

What kind of scam is that?

Unless from Amazon direct and not third party, don't touch this 'bargain'

Heat! But why is this deal so much hotter than the Tesco deal? They're the same!

I always wanted to spend £300 to (among other things ) pretend to shake a bottle of champagne. If your 7 or stoned or both i'm sure this is awesome! :g

kids will love this! thanks OP :smile:

Heads up to get the extra £20 off for anyone who ordered when Amazon dropped the price on back order for the Neon Switch to £256 and £258 (both posted on here).

http://www.hotukdeals.com/misc/heads-up-for-members-bought-neon-switch-256-258-amazon-2676360

I honestly didn't think we'd be seeing this less than 280 for a while based on how hard it was to get one a few weeks back

Bought

They won't refund difference anymore, refuse delivery then reorder.. Chat may tell you the same

I will try through chat, dont want the hassle of returning as they had this up at 250 a week ago

Can anyone help, just had mine dispatched today. do you think they would be able to give me an extra 20 off

its in stock direct from amazon

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B01N4NBHPM/ref=olp_f_primeEligible?ie=UTF8&f_new=true&f_primeEligible=true

Neon? No thanks. My eyes work

Fair point. Just assumed Amazon would side with you if something happened.

I'd like one , but not owned a nintendo console since the gamecube and can't see me using it as much as I'd like, the quarrels of growing up :disappointed:

there were a few sellers offering them for around £200 the other day, the feedback ratings were all from years ago yet they were new sellers

Although code is genuine :smiley:

One that takes £200 of your hard earned money and gives you nothing in return

I am sorry I didn't see your post. I was looking at this page and saw the codes here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00VJKLTBE

It appears we posted a deal almost at the same time. Heat added. :smiley:

finally... ordered THX
