No......payment is taken day before as a standing charge usually, and deducted when collected.

Nice one, went with disc version.

I'm in. Legends the lot of yas.

Went for digital version, but unfortunately home delivery as no click and collect.

Yeah looks like they have dicided not to send digital only consoles to any stores for some reason.

johng906 · 16-09-2020 11:39pm

Pre-order in yep

petes · 16-09-2020 11:39pm

Email from Smyths just there with links to pre order both versions if you registered interest.

MrStuffins · 16-09-2020 11:39pm

I pre-ordered but the site kicked me out after putting in my details.

I then pre-ordered again and it worked.

But I then got two emails confirming two pre-orders. Hoping they don't cancel both on me now.

CastorTroy · 16-09-2020 11:39pm

Virtual queue with a deposit? that's crazy!

Anyway for Smyths, from their help section on preorders

No payment upfront or deposit online
Chosen payment method will be pre-authorised 2 - 7 days before item becomes available

Happy days ordered the disc version, camera and headset. Weeks holidays booked from the 19th! Ye reckon they should be good for day one collection?? We are in very early in fairness.

Base console already out of stock in all stores, so would recommend getting any kind of pre-order in quickly if at all interested!

How in the world is it cheaper in the long run?

Disc copies of the games drop in price much faster than Digital.

Diff countries/sales, gameshare, reselling sites never lose your library.

I have got assassin creed valhalla and cyberpunk for less than 100 and il never lose them, the hassle of not having to go to a physical shop to trade in games is also worth it

Wing126 · 16-09-2020 11:42pm

Smyths is now sold out for click and collect apparently!

stephenl15 · 16-09-2020 11:42pm

No Smyths store near me for collection, not sure I want home delivery would rather be able to go in and pick it up

ryanmatty · 16-09-2020 11:42pm

Ya Disk version is out of stock for click and collect in all stores now

CastorTroy · 16-09-2020 11:42pm

Anyway, it's been fun.
Thanks for the heads up on the preorders

I'm off to listen to some Coldplay.... I mean off to bed.

Wow that was quick.

stephenl15 · 16-09-2020 11:44pm

I'm pinning my hopes on Currys

forzacalcio · 16-09-2020 11:44pm

Yep sold out, obvioulsy just put up a small amount. Just got in

biggebruv · 16-09-2020 11:44pm

Got one preordered click and collect smiths sorted

McFly85 · 16-09-2020 11:44pm

Just missed out, had a ps5 selected but by the time I hit pay they were all gone. Raging I got no notification from Smyths, and had literally stopped looking at ps5 stuff for 10 mins.

Penn · 16-09-2020 11:45pm

Jesus... Didn't even think the preorders would be up until tomorrow morning, was only by chance I saw the message here earlier and preordered then.

They still have them for delivery just not click and collect!

markcahill1985 · 16-09-2020 11:45pm

Makes yoy think if they're already sold out that those if us who got in shoukd be good for day one? They surely only put up a Conservative number for pre order.

dan786 · 16-09-2020 11:45pm

Hate Smyths. Tried 3 accounts, 3 bank cards, collection and delivery but all cancelled for whatever reason. I order something online every month never an issue.
