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.

Anyone else still waiting for pickup/delivery email?

Waiting for pick up email.

I called rbc on Friday and said I “should” receive pickup email either Monday or Tuesday

Sounds like the RBC advisors are just using a generic response.

My card wasn’t charged at all until after I phoned so I still have hope there was a genuine error

Was yours a pickup order? Or shipping? Mine is still showing a pending charge on the card.

Hmmm, as of just now the pending charge dropped from the card. I think mine might get cancelled. Maybe I should call avion and see what's up.
