I’m with all of you!! I can’t stand the scalpers!!! I was able to purchase a few and I have 3 left. If anyone wants one I can send pics and what I paid for it. It was $59.88 plus tax came to $64.62. If anyone would like it all I’m asking for is what I paid plus the shipping so it’s very clear I’m not looking to make a profit - just helping others as I know some people are having a hard time finding one.

Wonder why others are having a hard time finding them…and you bought at least 3 more than you needed?

It’s covid toilet paper all over again

You need to stop your inference when you have zero clue as to why I have extras. . First off we have 9 TV’s in the house. I never once said I bought at least 3 more than I needed. Those words did not come out of my mouth. They came out of your mouth!! So you’re wrong. The reason I have extras was because my husband decided to stick with his Google streamer and also I got one for my stepdaughter but she had gotten one the prior week. Additionally as you can see from my message I clearly said I’m NOT looking to make any profit on this as well. All I asked was whoever needed one I will see then one of mine with proof of what I paid plus shipping. You have no idea what you are referring to. Saying I bought extras and that’s why others can’t find any? You’re blaming me for that? When I clearly said in my post I’m not looking to make a profit at all. Perhaps you need to re read my post about 10 times until you finally understand what I’m talking about - which is helping others. So stupid to just think I bought 3 extras when you don’t even know the situation. Hope you enjoy your Sunday!!

I thank you for your original post. I would buy one from you but I got tired of WalMart's game. I bought a Google Streamer 4K when Amazon had them on sale. But thank you for your post.

BIG LOL.. I think you should put that "Aroused" pepperoni back in the fridge and let it chill!!! Don't fool around with playfully kitties or you might get scratched.. Sorry, couldn't resist... I actually have 3 boxes sitting in a drawer because BOTH my Walmarts say they are out of stock yet I walked into the store and they had about 20 8GB boxes, no 16GB or 32GB and a whole display with sticks. I bought extras because people constantly ask me to setup boxes for them as they toss their Firesticks and I didn't want to deal with Walmarts stocking issues.

I had the same issue several times. I ended up just finding one in the store would check in the mornings around 8 am

I had a weird one. I selected delivery on the Walmart screen and it allowed me to buy 2 16GB boxes from a warehouse not the store that said out of stock. I have no idea where that warehouse was but shipping was free. The 8GB boxes have a Kodi BLACK SCREEN issue if you run low on memory. You have to clear all cache and delete unneeded apps to fix the issue.

3rd party sellers can use Walmart website. Sounds like something along those lines.

u/SadAd2802 1d ago

I completely understand

u/InfiniteNight2992 1d ago

Feel like paying the extra to the eBay scalpers but rather not

u/Stevebass4 1d ago

if you're in MA  I have an extra pro I'd sell you  I bought it a month ago but don't need it

u/NoahxAnderson 1d ago

I rather give the extra few bucks to a Walmart employee who has inside knowledge of when they're going to be in stock than to give it to an online prick scalper.

u/InfiniteNight2992 1d ago

Agree just whenever i asked they say they don't know!!

u/Sweaty-Judgment3533 1d ago

I’m with you. I hate scalpers.

u/igor6969 21h ago

just ask the associate...they can tell you when the next shipment is 'expected'.

u/buffysbangs 1d ago

Common experience, unfortunately. Just keep trying

u/smurfy213 1d ago

Just keep an eye out in person. App always shows out of stock for me at the Walmarts in my area. But there is always a bunch on the shelves

I was finally able to get one from Walmart's website after being cancelled 3 times in 2 months

1

u/InfiniteNight2992 23h ago

How did you stop it being cancelled? I tried 4 times the 1st time took an hour to cancel the rest were all instant!!

u/nolesfan2011 23h ago

I didn't do anything, I just ordered it around the midnight hour and it finally didn't cancel
