I got the email from Game as well and my bank has been charged so it's definitely going ahead today,
still think it will be Friday by the time it gets to the Parcel motel site in Galway,
it could even be Monday but i really want it by the weekend.

Nightline courier service works 7 days a week so I'd hope it would come in to Parcel Motel by Saturday

Got an e-mail just there ....

Dear Sir

Thank you for taking the time to contact Tesco Direct.

I would like to provide you with an update regarding your Tesco Direct order. Having investigated this a bit further we have been informed that there would be at least a 24 hour delay to allow for the parcel to travel to Northern Ireland.

I am very sorry and allow me to reassure you that your order is expected to be delivered on the 29th or 30th of August.

I hope this helps and if you have any further queries then do not hesitate to contact me.Kind regards

Nikki Curran
Tesco Direct Customer Service

So looks like ParcelMotel won't have this until Friday so we won't see it until Friday at the earliest, really hope I have it by the weekend Where is the crying smiley when you need him :mad:

I was thinking of the processing part of things.
six days a week, Parcel motel are closed on Sunday,
There opening hours are :-
8am to 7pm Mon to Fri and 8am to 2:30pm Saturday. Closed Sundays and Bank Holidays.

but you are right, i was forgetting about the weekend so i'd say Saturday by the latest.

Amazon.co.uk have the 32GB model available now for pre-order with dispatch tomorrow, price is 239 Sterling, converted that is €279.

Amazon's conversion is not the best, i just put that order through to see and they wanted to charge me €291,
that's using Amazon's currency converter, it might be a little cheaper using your banks own rate and pay in GBP but you never know until your finished paying and then check with your on line banking,
It might work out better but i like to know what i'm paying before i buy something.

That's Irish VAT. Use Parcel Motel to avoid the VAT change.

That's from tesco yea?? Any word if game will be delivering to Northern Ireland any faster?

That was using Parcel motel, you'd be mad not to use them with the bigger priced item's
it's just Amazon's crazy euro conversion rate.

I don't understand, if you're using Parcel Motel you're paying in Sterling? If you're paying Euro, Amazon will adjust for Irish VAT, they don't have a crazy conversion rate.

Not too sure as it states on the website that the launch is the 29th... Give it a bash and let us know how you get on

VenomIreland

Here's hoping that PCWorld sell it 1 day earlier than they are advertising.

tomtom101

I think it was a few days after they were send out that you could pick em up in store... and then it didn't take long before they ran out!

Did anyone who ordered from Tesco get a dispatch email?

No not yet, and my account is still showing To Be Dispatched.
But the feeling is that Tesco won't send a dispatch e-mail as it's a third party that is sending out the devices so you might get the dispatch e-mail a few days after it's actually sent.

Apparently people on the HUKD thread have started receiving theirs already so hopefully they will show up in ParcelMotel today :-) If not, they might be delayed by a day getting across the Irish sea.

Pc world has not updated it's shipping info yet. Hope they are sending out today.

yeah I just seen on their website that it says "order today", the "pre-order" is gone. I,m hopeful that it will be delivered tomorrow:)

I'm going to head over the PC World in Blanch and have a look.

Just picked up the 16GB version from Fonthill PC World

had they got the 32 gb in stock as well?

I've given up on the LTE. For those of you who ordered from tesco, how did you include your PMID in the delivery address? It only allows me add the parcel motel post code and then choose an address from the dropdown, but I can't modify this to include the PMID.

Thanks in advance!

Butsymarc

Did everyone who ordered with Game get a tracking number? Got a dispatch email but no tracking number yet?

Yeah I got the PMID after my name. I think it was after I added my address from the dropdown (that didn't have my PMID). I know it took a bit of fidlling around to get it added, sorry can't remember exactly how did it.

Not sure, he asked me which version though so I'd assume both, but I'd suggest ringing first.

€250, a little more than if I had pre-ordered, but it's easier to return if something goes drastically wrong.

Arciphel

Just picked up 32gb model for €299. Lots in stock, I had no pre-order. Ask for Juan, he knows where they are and is super sound too so give him some commission on them :-) PC World Blanch.

I think how I had to do it was add my delivery address and name to my Tesco account and then when at the checkout you can click Edit for your name and change it there.

I put my full name in first name, then PMID in surname.

I just got mine 1min ago in PC World Jervis. The guy said he had about 20 of each 16GB and 32GB.
