    For people asking where to get it, nearest tesco and all that malarky. Tesco Finglas (Clearwater) are getting stock of GTA in tomorrow morning at 7 and will be €40, along with Tesco Stillorgan.

    Don't know about Stillorgan getting it. I was there this morning and they were quite adamant that they won't be getting stock in. They might have just be saying that to fob me off.

    It's on my way to work, so I'll pop in tomorrow morning anyway. I hope you're right.

    None of the tesco's are giving an exact time because they dont want hundreds of people queuing for them. So, its basically by chance if you find them.

    I was told tesco in bray are only getting about 6/7 copies of the game.
    I was also told that Tesco in ballybrack are getting a "few" in "possibly early morning" but she wasnt "too sure".

    hmmmm......

    Well your man who answered the phone in Stillorgan was really helpful and was 100% new stock will be in Friday morning and still will be €40 until Tuesday.:D

    so i think we can take it that most of the tescos that sell games will hopefully have stock of gta on their shelves at 7 am on friday.

    Well in that case, I'll see you there when the doors open ;)

    I'm guessing they'll be going to the non-grocery section...

    I'll be passing tesco in CH at 6:30am, will drop it on the off chance!

    Just back from Finglas Tesco and your man told me that they would not be out tomorrow in tesco or for the foreseeable future as the gta company are refusing to stock them due to the low price they charged on launch day.

    I dont want to believe this but your man really seemed to know what he was on about. I told him my sister said someone in the store told her it'd be restocked tomorrow but he said that was the original plan but they are now effectively banned from selling the game!!!!!!!!!!!!

    What ya think?

    I'm probably still gonna get up early and head over just incase but i'm really not hopeful at the mo!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 929 ✭✭✭sternn


    I hope that is just a ploy to turn people away because of their limited supply....

    Why would they care how much it's being sold for? Obviously they're publishing the game to every shop at the same price, if a shop wants to sell it for little profit that's the shops prerogative.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 77 ✭✭Damien1989


    Sold out in Game, Nenagh tipperary and xtravision nenagh!
    Both formats!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 326 ✭✭cheerspal

    I was at tesco this morning at 8, and none were released...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,616 ✭✭✭milltown


    Tesco Lucan was barren this morning at 7am. Nobody around that looked like they might know anything but asked a shelf packer who told me it's sold out and the girl who looks after the games would be in at 8.30.

    Guy in Maynooth yesterday (who was looking for a copy himself) was fairly sure they wouldn't have any more in before the €20 off offer ended.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 127 ✭✭ciano14


    tescos were supposed to be getting them into today but none did
    apperently smyths inn carrickmines have a "low stock" left if anyones around there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 929 ✭✭✭sternn


    I just bought one game for my friend on ebay €75...dont mind paying that much for it considering its sold out everywhere.. Aparently the seller has "more than one". He seems to be the only irish seller of the game on ebay at the moment. Shhhh, i didnt tell you!

    Tesco in Celbridge are expecting to have it for the Xbox today, but they don't have it yet. For some reason they sell PS3 consoles but not the games.
