$630 CDN for Switch 2 yikes!
I just saw someone post that they were able to get a Switch 2 from their local GameStop after failing to get a pre-order to go through online. He had heard that each GameStop may have 50 units available for pre-order. He got to his local GameStop at 1:15pm, no one inline. They said they had a handful of the 60 units they had still available. Took them an hour to work through all the pre-orders from the people lined up. Most people were there early, but not trying after opening.

Pre-order Goodness
My wife waited in line for an hour this morning and got one after striking out on their website. Our store had 59 units for preorder. 39 Bundles and 20 regular ones.

Switch 1 in today's dollars would be $400, so $450 isn't really that bad.

I think we got ours second-hand during the shutdown, probably around 200 to 250. Can't remember!

I'm seeing a lot of pre-order confirmed Switch 2 listings on eBay, like the one above, that are less than MSRP.
I can only see the reseller here paid a $50 deposit on the pre-order, but not what other discounts they may have been able to get. Were there some great deals, available that were are all unaware of? Or are these resellers buying these with their pro rewards and turning that over as profit?
Edit: or are you paying $300 for the $50 deposit and the seller profits $350 and then you still have to pay the remaining balance?

What to know about the Nintendo Switch 2 preorder chaos
Shoppers reported that preorders for the new Nintendo Switch 2 console were a mess.

I’m keeping my fingers crossed that my order will stand and not eventually be canceled due to GameStop over selling. I’ve seen a couple articles now that states their inventory sold out within minutes pretty much the entire time we just saw the bad gateway errors. Somehow my order went through 45 minutes after The pre-order started by clicking and not available button.
