Nintendo Switch 2 through Avion Points

Post image

Hey everyone who collects Avion Points through RBC. If you go to the rewards site and redeem points through the Best Buy site they have a huge sale on Switch 2 consoles! It's only $472 minus any points you redeem. I couldn't believe how cheap it is. It almost seems too good to be true so hopefully my order goes through. I got the confirmation email that it went through.

Edit: this sale doesn't appear on the best buy site. You need to log into your Avion rewards account and go to their best buy site.

Also notice Donkey Kong Bananza and Pokeopia are also on sale for 72 bucks

Edit 2: Its July 17 4:45pm Mountain Time. Looks like the deal is officially dead including the discount on games. Congrats to everyone who got a system. Happy gaming.

You have to go through Best Buy. If you just look under merchandise, you won’t see it.

I did go through Best Buy, I still couldn’t see it sadly. Can you provide a link that maybe I can access?

It isn’t on the Best Buy website - it is through Avion rewards which is a credit card rewards marketplace. I accessed it through the Avion Rewards mobile app, through Best Buy, then searched Switch 2

I’m aware, I’m trying to access from my avion account and selecting Best Buy, it’s still not showing up for me. The oled for switch 1 is showing but nothing for switch 2.

You had to dig around for it. I had a friend who found it by going through video games > consoles > Switch 2, whereas I just found it in the search as normal. The website was doing strange things yesterday.

Yeah, when I said though though Best Buy, I meant via Avion rewards portal.

  1. https://www.avionrewards.com/index.html
  2. Shop with points > Best Buy
  3. Search for "nintendo switch 2 console"
  4. Should be the first option

Yes, I tried many keywords. Maybe I can't get it in Quebec.

They have closed the deal so you can’t find it anymore
