Nintendo Switch $179.99 on Facebook Marketplace (Deal is over)
- Thread starter Strakt
- Start date
Got mine today. Now i'm just sitting here waiting on Smash, Zelda, Mario Odyssey, and Xenoblade to download.
If it's the USPS tracking number provided via Facebook then this tracking number will not work with Fedex and won't update past Pre-Shipment. The package you receive will have another tracking number that works with both Fedex and USPS. Most people that are being notified by Fedex are already registered for a service that let's them know when any package with their name and address is being shipped to them via Fedex.
Also there's no way any preorder from this company arrives on time lol.
I'm also still curious if I received a US Switch or not. I did not find a loose blue warranty card in the box and the small amount of warranty info listed was on a sticker on the inside of the box after you had opened it.
How many of you guys got the switch days before the scheduled delivery date? Mine has been in my state for 4 days now just sitting there! And still says delivery date 12/11 I don't understand what's going on! Lol
I'm in the same state as the dailysteals store so hopefully I get my Smash order fairly quick.
YES!!!
Switch and Pro Controller came!!!
So count me as yet another person that had pre-shipment the entire time when tracking the Switch.

My Switch has arrived, man what a cool little system. I also noticed the pamphlet for mine was in English, don't see Spanish anywhere. I can only assume after the first batch of Latin American units went out, they started drop shipping US models. Works for me!
Also wanna give a shout out to OP, thanks!

Ohhh okay, fedex said it'd be here by end of day but I guess they meant be in Houston bc it switched to Usps
Man I feel like I won the lottery with the US model I received. Don't have to worry about calling up and having ownership change or whatever was going on.
Mine just unexpectedly arrived. Yesterday, the tracking had no information besides an estimated date of Dec. 11th lol.
There doesn't seem to be any warranty information inside the box at all with mine. 🤔

Setting up Switch now. I see nothing inside that is primarily in Spanish. There is no warranty card.
Did I win the lottery too?

If the only pamphlet you saw was the one I posted above, we won the lottery.
Oh, that explains it. I was only putting the tracking number in USPS and that's why it had no updates yesterday, all the updates were on FedEx's tracking until this morning when they handed it off to USPS.
Lucky! My date still says the 11th but it's been sitting in my area for 4 days now!:/ I don't have a usps tracking number yet.
Wait, you were at "label printed" without any shipping updates the whole time a day your Switch arrived today? That means I could hope against hope that'll be waiting for me when I get home from work?
The tracking number for my Switch on USPS site still says...
Pre-Shipment

Shipping Label Created, USPS Awaiting Item
MIAMI, FL 33166
...while the tracking number for my pro controller updated every step and now says delivered.
I don't know if Fedex handled my Switch at any point. Facebook only gave me the USPS tracking number and it was delivered by USPS. Really weird that the status never updated.

That pamphlet also came in english with mine (as well as a blue warranty in spanish).
I think fedex is just shit at updating their tracking. Mine was shipped with an estimated date of 12/11 last Friday. No updates until today. It's finally in my state and will now deliver on the 12th instead.
Just looked through the box to make sure I didn't miss anything and yeah, no sign of a blue warranty card or anything in Spanish.
If the subreddit post is correct, these are NA Switch units but the owner is under some Latin American name, which you can call up Nintendo and get it switched to your name and activate the warranty.
Can you link that? Why would a new Switch have a registered owner

Woops kinda mixed up what the post meant, I'll quote it here and you can check the link out for other info.
Interesting, my label was created with FedEx on 11/29 but still no updates. I wonder if it could still work out that it's been in transit or if they truly haven't shipped it yet.
Got my Switch delivered today but I think this feels like a refurb? I dont remember what my box was like for my launch unit but I'm pretty sure it was taped right?
I looked inside and some of the plastic wrapping looks dusty.
Anyways, how do I find out about warranty information?

The one neon SKU that my group ordered was LatAm and the three grays were USA.
My delivery date was bumped up a few days from 12/11 to 12/8, which I expected since the Switch arrived at a local fedex facility yesterday so it wouldn't have made sense for the delivery to still be 5--6 days out.
So what this means that people whose Switches are in your city/county already have hope that their deliveries will be moved up if the tracking info still shows a strange amount of days from delivery.

Man... My second switch still says pending in Pennsylvania for like a week, I've sent them a message on Facebook but no reply, nervous.
The one I bought from Amazon at launch isn't wrapped, so I assume that's just how they are.
I was in the same boat, until my package suddenly arrived yesterday afternoon with no USPS update. Granted I DID submit a ticket asking what was going on, but it was only a day or two before that and the tracking info never updated, so I'm thinking it's just a bug.
I checked on USPS and it finally updated about 30 minutes ago, should arrive Monday. I wasn't in a hurry or frantic to receive it, but I appreciate your input. Thanks.
