I was busy today so asked a friend to collect the KZ bundle I reserved in Argos yesterday and he was told the reservation was cancelled and that the console was sold to somebody else.

I didn't cancel the reservation and don't even know how to do it without going in store.

Trying to call the shop now to get an explanation from the manager but getting no answer. Is there a customer service number to call that would be better than the branches actual number?

This is unbelievably frustrating.

What argos was it? I've to drive over an hour tomorrow. I'll go crazy if its not there

Code gone to BlackPlum123, hopefully someone will return the favour in the Waterford area

Why?

Don't understand that, granted when us boardsies are benefitting its all good,

But other than that why?

Simply because I'd rather have someone from boards get one than a random stranger.

Do you suppose argos will update their site after closing time?

Desperately trying to find a PS4 for my son for Christmas. Based in cork. Would hate Santa to disappoint him. Any help would be wonderful. Thanks Brian

All Argos stores showing unknown status and website giving me an error, are they updating?

Nevermind..........................

eamondunphy

does that mean something?

It is strange, they usually just come up as being all 'Out of stock'.

rafi bomb

Well argos.ie is down so I assume checkargos.com can't connect with it to check stock.

rayken

if you try to buy or reserve it says they experiencing high volumes of people visiting the site and thy are limiting the amount of new visitors

Flaccus

yes it's down...I just used the phone and no stock in the 4 stores I checked so it's likely only the online system that is down due to high traffic.

FourFourRED

Thanks to a generous boards member who PM'd me an Argos reservation. Hope the rest of you find one before Christmas :-)

Sony will be doing well if they release any game that delivers as much tension and excitement as this search for reservation codes is generating.

Got all excited when I saw the Castlebar stock change to 'Unknown Status'.

I'm the same! There's no way I'll pay a cent above RRP.

I'm pretty annoyed they're selling lots of Killzone bundles too. Heard the game is useless!

Got a killzone bundle for the hubby, game is crap....so traded it for BF4, way better game!

eamondunphy

where did you trade in killzone and how much you get for it?

did you have any trouble trading it in as it says not for resale on it?

In gamestop, no trouble trading it in but there were a lot of them being traded in so the value will probably be crap soon enough!
