What a nice idea! Partnering with a local children's charity (perhaps your local Children's Miracle Network Hospital which we support w/Extra Life?) running a toy drive would be a great idea. Feel free to run it by your local store leaders too! Message us for help lookin'! -SMRT
We know you’re excited for the upcoming PlayStation 5! Due to this highly-anticipated launch, reservations are very limited! If you were unable to make an order online or in-store, please keep an eye out for future availability. We are unable to place orders for you directly.
@ButtFarm69
Inspiring! For folks that might have some PowerUp Rewards points they're not using at the moment, donating points to our partners at the Make-a-Wish Foundation & Extra Life benefitting The Children's Miracle Network Hospitals is another great way to give back! ❤🖤 -SMRT 😎💙💪🏻🎮
@Sinai0035
No specific ETA but we're hoping to get more around Turkey Day. We're working hard to overcome the crazy supply chain challenges that range from factory shutdowns overseas due to power outages & the pandemic to a lack of truck drivers here. We're working hard to get 'em. -SMRT 💪🏻

Looks like the universe gave you negative points to balance out your amazingly positive attitude 😂 We've sent over a direct message to get this fixed up right away! - SMRT

Thank you so much for sharing this with us Mike! We're so happy your son loves the new lamp! Seeing his face light up makes it all worth it! May the force be with you, always! -TJ

Next time, try to clear cookies and cache, especially if using Chrome to browse. We've found that sometimes certain cookies prevent the buttons from updating.

@B1rdBear
If somebody in the Switch factory, drops a Switch off of the assembly line and one of the buttons pops off, if it gets repaired it's considered refurbished. If somebody trades in a Switch and that Switch is then sold, it's pre-owned.
