Hi guys, FYI:
I ordered this exact item late January 2020.
They told me they are out of stock and gave me a ETA of late Feb/early March.
Late March, I checked in with them - still completely no further update from them nor their supplier.
Then COVID-19 hit.
I checked up on them just before lockdown - still had no answers for me.
Upon further questioning, realised they didn't put the right product number and had ordered a version that DIDN'T come with mario kart.
They told me they can't do anything about it, saying they don't know what discussions were had 3 months ago.
I got fed up, refunded my order, and purchased just a normal console and paid extra for the game from Mightyape - which arrived within a week.
TLDR:
Noel leeming has been out of stock for literally 6+ months. They have no idea when they are arriving and they wasted 4 months of my time waiting for this exact item.
Ah bummer, sorry to hear that.
I'll have to chase Noel Leeming up to make sure they did order the right product this time. I'll keep my expectation relatively low for now.
Also looks like the product is no longer available on the Noel Leeming website.
Thanks for the heads up @shijo046
No worries, all the best. Hope it works out for you.
I was under the impression the version with Mario Kart has basically been out of stock since late last year since V2 intially came out silently. I've literally looked everywhere to get it but no avail.
All the best, hope you get it!
Just updating that after waiting just over a month for this order, Noel Leeming finally gave me a definitive answer that this product is definitely discontinued. It was a shame NL relisted the product in May, even though they should have known the product is no longer available from Nintendo.
Anyway I have requested for refund like @shijo046, and have instead purchased the console without the Mario Kart game elsewhere.
If you ever see another relisting of Nintendo Switch with Mario Kart code from Noel Leeming in the near future, best to ignore and just buy from somewhere else.
Can’t order this? Won’t let me. Anyone else had the same?
