Gutted for you, but hoping it means that all the cancelled copies (past what they've oversold) will be relisted as 1 per customer again, as I desperately need a copy xx

Thanks vhal....I ordered 2, so even if they relist my second copy it will be available for all of 0.00000000001 seconds. But Amazon can't be dumb enough (can they?) to list this edition with no order limit (or at least a relatively high order limit), only to strip multiple-copy orders a week before release and then relist the edition at some point later on.

Fortunately I prepared for this a little bit and placed a backup order at GameStop. Hopefully Amazon is the only one that tries to screw me, but I guess we'll see what happens.

By that, I meant to fuck over the scalpers. Not you (hopefully) helping someone out.

That sucks man. I assume they didn't just drop you down to 1 copy? Did you get the full order canceled? From the sound of the email, they were just dropping people with numerous copies down to one. At least you have backups.

Nintendo is the real problem. EVERY single special "edition" I go through with them is this exact same problem. Their supply is extremely limited for VERY popular franchises. They should simply open preorders from x date through x date. All preorders from that time period will be made. Instead they just make a extremely low supply of them.

Amazon let me keep one of the two copies I ordered. So far. Like you point out, Nintendo's CE releases tend to be disastrous, so who knows, there are still 8 more days for all of my orders to get dropped!

It gets harder and harder to obtain a mint condition copy of these fucking Zelda games I swear to God.

Are your other copies of the Master Edition (or SE really) spoken for? If not, is there any chance you could keep me in mind? xx

You're an awesome member here and I'd really love to help you out vhal, but at this point I apparently can't even say with any certainty that I'll end up getting a single copy for myself!

Same here. I've been stalking this thread since I found out I missed my window to buy one of these Collector's Editions.

If anyone gets buyer's remorse, wants to cancel or simply got one too many, keep in mind the people that couldn't get a pre-order in the first place.

Ordered only one Master Edition via amazon.com and got a cancellation. It was meant to be a birthday present for my brother and he was really looking forward to it...

I had to get one off of ebay for twice the price.

Still got my fingers crossed that there will not be any issues with my GameStop order.
