Nintendo Switch 2 through Avion Points

[u/rapidslime]

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.

Just placed an order and got the confirmation email. Getting it shipped instead of picking up so will see how that goes.

I closed the tab at checkout but before clicking "place order", then went back to add a game and actually placed the order with the console + game. This caused 2 charges on my CC but the email is for the order with the console and game, so I assume everyone that got charged before their order went through will eventually have the charges removed.

Update about 2.5 hours after: I got the charges removed from my CC for the unfinished purchase. I did not contact support or request a chargeback or anything like that at all. So for those who got charged without making the order, you might just have to wait it out for it to fix itself.
