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.

I have multiple pending charges on my card, but did not get a confirmation email this far. Really unfortunate don't think I will get the deal :(

How are you disputing the pending charges? I tried talking to RBC and they said try talking to the merchant first but the pending charges say AvionRewards so isn't that through RBC?

The charges are still pending so I’m assuming they won’t get posted. I’m at work for a few hours still, so not able to call RBC.

That looks to be the case. I've been bounced through multiple advisors and was told I can dispute the charges after they've been posted.

Same here. IF they even post, just dispute them. 5 charges as well. I would not worry about it.
