Though a short supply on Nintendo's end is definitely at the root of the problem, the sheer number of scalpers hoarding Amiibo is exacerbating it to ridiculousness.

What is wrong with consumers? They need to stick to their guns and refuse to pay a 2-6x markup on items that literally came out a day before. Stop feeding the scalpers.

It's not the consumers fault, its Nintendos.  If Nintendo would just sell each of them with a healthy amount and not making any store exclusives then consumers would never have to turn to scalpers.....ever again.

I live in Canada, I can't get a Rosalina because it was exclusive to Target that's only in the US so what would be my option then? Screw Nintendo. I have a couple of amiibos (20?) but this is getting ridiculous to the point that Im slowly not caring about getting more amiibos in the future because it's exhausting fighting to find the rare ones simply because Nintendo chooses to make low stock.
