While large retailers like Best Buy and GameStop are getting periodic shipments of Nintendo Switch units, the consoles sell out before many even know they’re available. So it’s not surprising to see many people hunting for any way to purchase one.
With demand for the Nintendo Switch so high, potential Switch buyers should know that purchasing the console at or below retail price won’t come easy, especially when purchasing online. Those who really want the console will undoubtedly end up paying well above retail price, at least until Nintendo’s supply can meet demand.
In the end, it’s better to be safe than sorry when it comes to making purchases online. So those looking to pick up a Nintendo Switch should be careful when buying online and even wait a little while if necessary in order to avoid any potential scams.
