lol the way this has slowly rolled out across retailers shows that there was some sort of last minute memo from nintendo allowing people to reduce prices for Cyber Monday. Sales probably not as strong as they had hoped.
It was super easy.
You order the gift cards like you would any other item you buying online. You wait up to 24 hours for them to email you. You copy/paste the codes they send you into a box on Nintendo's site. You add the switch to cart like you would any other online product and when it asks if you want I apply the gift cards to your total you click OK. Easy.
Total time spent in this should not have taken more than 5 mins total.

I used the paypal 20% off pay in 4 promo to purchase this a week or so ago. Does anyone know if I get a price adjustment through best buy, will the pay in 4 still go through. It brought the total down to $400 previously using the Pay in 4.
Best Buy will price match themselves if you're within the return window. I don't think they count the extended holiday returns so its the regular 14 or 30 days depending on your membership with them.
As for the 20% PayPal Promo, they also refunded me the difference to it so I'm hoping it won't mess with the points minus the obvious $50 difference. But the only way to tell is to wait I guess.

It should, I got a refund for my s25 ultra, the refund was taken out of the pay in 4, so my final payment is less the refund, and I read the terms, it didn't say anything about getting partial refund

Does it show that the 20% will apply before you purchase?

Ended up purchasing without seeing the 20% discount confirmation on checkout, but I see the pending points in PayPal history.
I was figuring there would have to be a sale. Stores have had cases full of these things for a couple of months. They are just too expensive, especially when you factor in extra storage and game key prices.

Costco canceled my order from yesterday this morning (3 $200 gift cards). I live chatted and they said they had issues yesterday and to place a new order. I placed an order for 2 $200 gift cards and 2 $100 gift cards and paid the same price. The codes were delivered in an hour and 10 minutes. Ordering through Nintendo's website brought the total to $535, which leaves me almost enough left over to get Donkey Kong with only the gift card balance. I spent $480 and will spend less than ~$10 more to get the game. Still a better deal that this Best Buy one, if you're willing to put in the time. If you go that route, just know that you will get a ton of codes you have to redeem on the Nintendo website, which takes a little extra time.
