Discuss Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing New Horizons Edition Stock at Currys

G guest494879 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 18:08

I hope so! From what I've read online it seems that retailers will have more stock later this month. The shortage right now is due to supply chains being affected by coronavirus / panic buying. Nintendo UK have advised people to look out on their website for updates so I am optimistic. I've also read elsewhere that this edition is special edition rather than limited? Either way, the normal switches will definitely be back in stock soon. As a principle, I don't think it's worth spending fortunes buying resale switches - although this edition is very cute, the added price is certainly not justified!

W wxyxhx - Yesterday 03/04/2020 18:14

I hope that is the case. I’ve bought a switch lite for now to help my quarantine/working from home boredom. Hope more stock will come soon, wish they’d offer preorders!

G guest484467 - Today 04/04/2020 09:17

Definitely will, the reception has been crazy, also its special edition meaning it should be permanent for the foreseeable future, if Corona hadn't happened there would definitely have been restocks already, think its just made everyone go a bit crazy for it

J jasmineka - Yesterday 03/04/2020 13:41

I'm meant to be collecting mine on Sunday, let's see if it gets cancelled 😬

G guest478655 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 13:53

Will probably be cancelled, mine got cancelled but they still charged me. I would recommend cancelling your order and go in store to check

J jasmineka - Yesterday 03/04/2020 14:10

how long till you got your refund, if you've got it yet?

G guest489123 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 14:14

I ordered from Asda a week ago as I had a food delivery booked for last Friday anyway, it wasn't available so was cancelled but I still haven't had my refund back yet. Tried it again in my food shopping delivery for today and got another cancelled

J jasmineka - Yesterday 03/04/2020 14:15

ah ffs don't know if I should cancel mine so im not £320 out of pocket or wait and see what happens ...

G guest478655 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 14:20

Had one for delivery 2 days ago, and that was cancelled but my other asda groceries came. And had one for click and collect yesterday and it cancelled without any emails, had to check my order page myself. Still not refund yet, so I’m £640 out of pocket. A bit ridiculous they will charge me even though they cancelled my order.

G guest489123 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 14:23

I'm in the same boat, hoping it's not much longer for the refund for the first one as I've been waiting a week!

G guest478655 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 14:27

I would cancel it so you’re not waiting for a refund, your click and collect orders aren’t confirmed until the night before/morning of your click and collect date where they pick it off the shop floor. If your slot is a few days away, someone in-store might have already pinched it off the shelf...

R ruiqijoneydew - Yesterday 03/04/2020 14:34

I don't think they show us the true stock because I booked one on Wed and checked stock in store, the staff told me there is no switch available but you can still add it to your basket online and wait the Thursday C&C. However, it was cancelled before the slot. I believe only if they restock and you have a slot on that day can you receive you NS, good luck.

J jasmineka - Yesterday 03/04/2020 14:46

what a silly system 😫

G guest489123 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 14:53

It works the same with all groceries orders though as they can't guarantee what will be on the shelves on the day that they pick it, it's just a chance you take (e.g. also had some chocolate and fabric conditioner cancelled in my food delivery). But yeah I do think that Asda should move their electronics such as consoles to their George website in the home department section, it would make more sense! If I hadn't had the spare money I wouldn't have risked it although I did think it would have taken 2-3 working days to refund rather than a week and counting!

J jasmineka - Yesterday 03/04/2020 15:03

Yeah that would make way more sense to move it to the George section. Also it's weird that they would take payment for something they don't have stock of and then keep you waiting so long for a refund! Sigh. I don't have the money to spare so I'm going to go ahead and cancel it and maybe just call them tomorrow and see if they've had any delivered. ☹️ But thanks for letting me know and good luck in the search for a switch lol!!

G guest489123 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 15:09

You too!

B Bird1993 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 11:37

Did they have any more do you know?

I Imzkola - Yesterday 03/04/2020 12:10

Just the neon. Comes in at 10am. Call the stores and press option 2 for colleagues. They dont know the difference

B Bird1993 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 12:15

Do you mean that is how you checked if they had stock, called them first through the Colleagues option?

I Imzkola - Yesterday 03/04/2020 12:20

YES!!! Seems they come in every two days or so. If you live local go get the neon one and buy the game separately

I Imzkola - Yesterday 03/04/2020 12:21

Its option 2, then 1 , then 5. Memorized it now haha

R ruiqijoneydew - Yesterday 03/04/2020 13:00

Sorry, but I d want to ask the meaning of five, they only tell me to enter the order number after 2 and 1.

I Imzkola - Yesterday 03/04/2020 13:11

Might be different options for different asdas. Whatever options for customer service

J Jasmine1074 - Today 04/04/2020 00:05

Were they happy to reserve you one for you to collect or did you just have to go there straight after you called?

I Imzkola - Today 04/04/2020 08:20

Go and collect straight away

G Guest ppp - Yesterday 03/04/2020 11:23

Only £360

G Guest ppp - Yesterday 03/04/2020 11:24

I just ordered it now been watching it for a while but the price was just reduced

G Guest ppp - Yesterday 03/04/2020 11:27

The link doesnt show its 365 games the website

L Lady Rainicorn - Yesterday 03/04/2020 09:11

If you are logged into your account it shows you products available under your postcode. I checked website after logging out. Switch is there but when I want to buy it and it ask to log in or give post code it says it don’t deliver to my location.

G guest486625 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 09:39

Online is nearly impossible because you can’t collect or get delivery, try going to any Asda superstore near you and looking, you have a better chance

G guest489123 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 10:20

I wouldn't bother with Asda unless you're going to try and go into a store. I have tried ordering one with my last two food shops as I already had slots and both times it has been unavailable in store when they've gone to pick my order. They also take the money for your whole shop and don't refund immediately (I'm still waiting for a refund on the first one and it's been a week)

T Tazdevil - Yesterday 03/04/2020 10:39

I agree with that, I have one on click and collect for Monday. Checking the order now to amend. It says out of stock.

E ekan33 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 12:05

ASDA just cancelled my order. So Sad. I was supposed to collect it at 6:00 PM TODAY

K Kaori79 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 13:45

Which ASDAs did you guys order from?

E ekan33 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 08:33

You mean from ASDA?

G guest411100 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 08:56

Yes sorry from ASDA. There really should be another discussion page for ASDA loool

J jasmineka - Yesterday 03/04/2020 10:08

Try clicking different asda's for collection until you get one where it doesn't say item unavailable. It's managing to actually find a slot that's the hard part!! Anyway that's what I did,and I managed to find one in an asda 9 miles away, supposed to be collecting it on Sunday.

E ekan33 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 12:06

ASDA just cancelled my order. So Sad. I was supposed to collect it at 6:00 PM TODAY

G guest754256 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 07:11

I just need to know whether to cancel my smyths pre order before they charge me

B Boris Johnsons Alternate Account - Yesterday 03/04/2020 07:20

I would say so!

G guest490965 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 11:12

Mine said it was confirmed as soon as the order was placed? I'm not sure if I'd cancel the other order just yet, I've seen people on twitter saying theirs got cancelled etc, if worst comes to worst you can just sell the other one, it's not like you won't get your money back for it.

B Boris Johnsons Alternate Account - Yesterday 03/04/2020 05:27

Its really bad isnt it. I still have work in the morning, can't stock check there either!

D Duwsh - Yesterday 03/04/2020 11:00

I leave my laptop on and the alert wakes me up, although not had much luck yet except the Smyths pre-order.

A Always_Late - Yesterday 03/04/2020 05:09

We are in this together anon. We will all get one some day. I've got a Red and Blue one on order just in case this fails.

R roseclm - Yesterday 03/04/2020 09:15

If you don't get an ac one you can always get skins to cover the joycons. it's not the same but it looks pretty cute that's what I'm doing cause I can't be bothered with the stress any more haha.

G Guest ppp - Yesterday 03/04/2020 06:58

Had really bad experiences with asda.. every store i went to the staff were rude and unwilling to check stock. One store I even saw the lites in the cabinet but they had told me they had no consoles at all. I dont understand why??? Havent managed to find one though

E ekan33 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 08:28

Oh, really pity. Maybe you can try to order one on their website?

C celia10a - Yesterday 03/04/2020 09:38

Did you manage to get yours from the Asda collection in the end!

E ekan33 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 12:01

THEY JUST CANCELLED MY ORDER

E ekan33 - Yesterday 03/04/2020 12:02

😫

A Always_Late - Yesterday 03/04/2020 03:50

Same man I give up I am gonna buy of Facebook Market place and call it a week. I cant be bothered anymore

T TFG - Yesterday 03/04/2020 03:51

I feel you man, it's s starting top**s me off at this point... How much is it off Facebook Market?

A Always_Late - Yesterday 03/04/2020 03:53

Like £450?

T TFG - Yesterday 03/04/2020 03:53

Ouch, I'm not sure if I'll wait or not

A Always_Late - Yesterday 03/04/2020 03:54

It's the case of £100 of uncertain delivery or my sanity

C chadlinjb - Yesterday 03/04/2020 04:42

same for me clicked the link got it in basked logged in and it got taken out my basket.... ffs currys fix ur site.

C clover - 02/04/2020 11:03

I ordered on the 31st and not had any cancellation or delay email, just my confirmation and processing email and no updates since. I hope it is still ok! I wanted to try use Currys online chat so I can check but I can't find it on the website, I know some other people have used it but I don't know how to get to it.

T tanka89623452 - 02/04/2020 11:27

I'm in the same position as you! I tried to call them but impossible.... it says delivery 9th April so i'm going to give it til Monday and HOPE to see a dispatch email! Good luck, we may be some of the lucky ones x

C clover - 02/04/2020 12:14

Hope so, I would expect a despatch email on Monday/Tuesday latest so fingers crossed

G guest490965 - 02/04/2020 13:34

I don't have an cancelations or delays on mine either, ordered early on the 1st. someone lower down said that they spoke to curry's and they said they didn't actually have the stock yet, but that nintendo said it would come in sometime next week, but that they hadn't been told when next week. so it might get dispached a few days into next week.

W wxyxhx - 02/04/2020 10:25

It was too good to be true, its annoying they're not reserved on click and collect.

R ruiqijoneydew - 02/04/2020 12:01

Same, I booked the C&C for today and I even came to the store yesterday to confirm the order, but it was cancelled at early morning.

K Kaori79 - 02/04/2020 12:57

Which Asda was this?

C celia10a - 02/04/2020 14:03

Do they cancel it before your pick up slot? Dont wanna pay for a taxi there if I will come back empty handed

R ruiqijoneydew - 02/04/2020 15:23

Old Kent, I didn' t think they truely have the stock and it was cancelled 5 hours after payment at 3 am.

G guest486209 - 02/04/2020 18:19

Yepp, they cancelled it on the App/email in the morning and was meant to pick up at 1pm

G guest486625 - 02/04/2020 00:09

I got mine in Brighton hollingbury and someone else got there’s at Brighton marina

G guest491304 - 02/04/2020 01:29

Which Asda have you been?

G guest484128 - 02/04/2020 17:39

What London Asda’s are available? I can’t see any!

T tanka89623452 - 01/04/2020 22:55

I hope so! I ordered mine last night, payment went through, confirmation and processing emails and no delay/cancelling so PRAYING!! It says estimated delivery 9th June, do you have the same?

B bml - 01/04/2020 23:01

Same for me mate. What time did you order it?

R retinia - 01/04/2020 23:12

Me too hopefully! I got mine at about 3:25 this morning, saying it'll deliver around the 9th.

G guest489511 - 01/04/2020 23:19

my yesterday order was cancelled....

G guest491847 - 01/04/2020 23:33

I booked a slot to pick it up, hopefully it will be there and not sold out :/

G guest490965 - 02/04/2020 06:56

9th June? mine says 9th April?

T tanka89623452 - 02/04/2020 09:30

Sorry I meant 9th April!! Still no delay/cancellation email... I think we got lucky!

T tanka89623452 - 01/04/2020 22:55

Did it say when it would be delayed to?

C Cazzakstania - 01/04/2020 22:59

No, they haven’t said anything more specific, and the email said they’d get in contact, which they haven’t. Guess I’ll ring up tomorrow and see...

T Tazdevil - 02/04/2020 07:31

Car insurance should cover the windscreen crack. They should come out to you.

A ACNH - 01/04/2020 20:40

which asda?

G guest490965 - 01/04/2020 18:20

As far as i'm aware with asda delivery, they literally have someone take it off the shop floor the day of delivery so if its in stock when they go to get it it'll be delivered.

W wxyxhx - 01/04/2020 18:36

Oh dear, is this the same for collection? I have booked for Saturday and now I'm worried it won'r be in stock by then!!

G guest490965 - 01/04/2020 18:41

I'm not sure about collection

W wxyxhx - 01/04/2020 18:52

I assume it would be? However, I went to my local asda earlier to buy a switch that was displayed as in stock online but when we went to the till they said it wasn't. Now I'm reluctant to drive an hour to an asda that's claiming they have stock online!!

C celia10a - 01/04/2020 20:01

How do you check if a particular asda shop has stock?

G guest486625 - 01/04/2020 21:13

You can’t really, best way to go is by just checking big Asda’s in store

G guest489123 - 01/04/2020 22:14

I ordered from Asda last Thursday, it was in stock at the time I placed my order but wasn't delivered the next day with my food shop which I already had a slot for because it probably wasn't in stock in store at the time of picking my order. Still waiting for them to refund it from my original order too and the delivery was last Friday!

G guest486515 - 02/04/2020 17:21

I ordered click and collect in asda yesterday, to collect earlier today. Went in today, even during my slot, it says preparing order. They said they have no record of my order or email. Then I waited around till the end of my collection slot and they said its cancelled. I recieved no email, it still says its processing my order. I have rang customer service, they said I have to wait 48 hrs for it to change on my account before they get involved. So I've just got £320 missing now and no Switch. It still says its in stock though on their site, so bit upset. Wasted a trip as it was not my local one.

A ACNH - 01/04/2020 17:17

which asda?

T Tazdevil - 01/04/2020 17:47

I bought one at old Kent road to pick up next week. It looks like it’s available online to pick up in London. Best move quick.

G guest487105 - 01/04/2020 17:55

When I sign in to asda it says item unavailable

G guest491766 - 01/04/2020 18:04

same here

R ruiqijoneydew - 01/04/2020 18:12

hi did you receive the confirmation email from asda and there is a black cross under ALLOW SUBS？

G guest486625 - 01/04/2020 18:34

I just went into store and managed to buy mine, I’m not sure how many they had, was in Asda hollingbury brighton

T Tazdevil - 01/04/2020 18:54

My confirmation email was received and had X next to allow subs

P Persephie - 01/04/2020 19:42

How do I check with asda stores? I cannot call in branch due to demand, and even when I find free slots for click and collect it just doesn’t work. I feel like I must be doing something wrong here

T tanka89623452 - 01/04/2020 14:54

and CEX if anyone wants second hand

G guest480691 - 01/04/2020 14:09

I managed to as well! They had some slots for next week at Brighton Hollingbury 😄

G guest485775 - 01/04/2020 14:13

It shows as out of stock now?

L lozzzaaaaa - 01/04/2020 14:19

its showing click and collect slots but its saying its sold out

G guest485775 - 01/04/2020 14:21

saame

W wxyxhx - 01/04/2020 14:22

Same problem with me!

L lozzzaaaaa - 01/04/2020 14:53

is there a way of being notified when Asda restock?
