    Only got €28...cos there are so many copies going back! :eek:

    Traded my Killzone into Smyths in Swords and got €45 for it, bloke said I was the first person to trade in a PS4 game in that store. Used the credit to buy the PS Plus subscription for the year. I'd say they will get a lot if trade ins on the bundle games after Christmas so probably get a higher trade in value this side of Christmas.

    I will be going to Cardiff for the weekend - Friday through Sunday so if anyone is still stuck and can reserve one in Cardiff I will gladly pick it up for them and take it back home. There are 2 of us travelling so could even get 2 for people. If this is the case by Friday pm me and I will give you my number - I will be out and about in the city centre of Cardiff all day Saturday so its no bother.

    I really dont know but there may be a chance if people want to check this postcode cf52ng - this is where I will be staying so it might help or be another option. Also there is people selling on gumtree cardiff for not too high a price I see - 450gbp - I dont know if this is an option or what way this would work - perhaps paypal or something but I guess you dont know me so I dont know if that would work for you guys. Just a thought anyway.

    Hey guys, trying to get my hands on a PS4 for the young lad before christmass, if anyone has a reserve for argos in Navan, Cavan, Dundalk, Drogheda or any of the Dublin ones please PM me, i live in meath but am willing to travel to any of these stores to get one, I'm on check argos all the time bit can't seem to get one :(

    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.

    Sounds like a member of staff did it.

    The codes auto cancel after 48 hours, anytime before that is staff

    Honestly lads,What is the urgency in getting a ps4? I can understand parents looking for one for kids but grown men stressing out because of it? Mind blowing.

    There are a handful of games on it, the majority can be gotten on the ps3 anyway. There is no huge leap forward graphics wise with these games. So everyone just calm down, wait til after Christmas and stroll along to your local shop and get one before the real next gen titles arrive.

    Ha tell that to the children middle aged men :P

    People want the latest and to be fair there is a good bit of difference even with the likes of Fifa 14 which is on both consoles.

    I noticed Xbox One in stock in Gamestop Carlow at the weekend, seems Sony's device is kicking Microsofts's ass

    I'm not sure whether its 400 euro worth of difference though.

    Launch games are traditionally underwhelming. As soon as a Gran Turismo or an Uncharted hits the shelves I'll buy one.

    Hey guys, might be a bit cheeky asking as I haven't been on this in a while and scarcely was before, but any codes going for Drogheda or Dundalk please? Thanks!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,175 ✭✭✭StaticAge11


    Heading up to Swords later to scope out the situation in Harvey Norman etc. Friend of mine managed to pick 3 PS4's up no bother over the weekend in there.

    Will report back!

    Thanks to everyone for the heads up on the potential PS4s, keep 'em coming, I'm still on the hunt.

    Would be eternally grateful to anyone for an Argos code in Dublin/Kildare if there are any floating around!
