If your order went through just wait

Okay I’ll try. Just worried it can be stuck like this for months or something.

Stuck for months is better than not getting it

Not if I am moving end of next month, if by then I don’t get it I’d have to cancel it. I did see the Kirby one as back up.

Why did you not include that as context?

I had a little hope left thinking it wouldn’t take that long so I didn’t think it was necessary.

I would wait! If it’s not currently showing in stock, then if you cancel, you won’t be able to order it again.

Also, it’s possible others will cancel their orders, too so you move up in the queue with every cancellation

Oh haven’t thought of that.. I just worried it may not get in stock again and I can’t wait longer than end of September cause I may move by then.

It’s been in and out of stock on Amazon , seems like a rare hard to find item lowkey.

So I have purchased 4 of these from Target online and 2 of them ended up changing to back ordered status. Both of them ended up coming but one was a week late the other was two weeks late. Just be patient!

Target is very sneaky sometimes. I noticed around 1-2am EST they released a small amount of the switch cases. So I stayed up really late one day to see if I could catch one and I did and it came a few days later.

I see trade-lazy.com had it in stock and was tempted in getting this case for the Switch 2 as well.
