Mr Crispy

I think it's safe to say...we'll let you know when preorder will happen. It's not going to happen with a minute's notice. We're going to at some point let you know when you can preorder PlayStation 5. So, please, don't feel like you have to go run out and line up anywhere until you receive official notice on how that will work.

People are gonna do it which is the sad thing

Loads of people missed smyths mail last night, currys is nowhere to be seen, nothing from argos. Sony dropped the ball and we have to deal with it. As much as I hate that Gamestop practice for some it will be some peace of mind that at least are in queue.

ps. my story is that got ps4 and switch from gamestop at the time when could not get it in smyths so I'm willing to take what the offer for now nothing since there is no other alternative.

He’s honest on that front at least - it happened without even a minute’s notice :pac:

Think one of the most annoying things is you know that a lot of these preorders have gone to scalpers

Yea it is a shame. I have technically had 4 pre-orders of it already, I have cancelled 2 of them. Now have 1 with Smyths and 1 with Amazon. I am keeping the Amazon pre-order just incase my Smyths one is cancelled, but I will let it go before they charge me.

I could have easily had 3 spare consoles to resell if I wanted to.

Just gone in to Currys PC World. They said they don't know if they are doing pre-orders or not, the Irish website basically copies the English website so that's why currys.ie says they will be doing pre-orders...was able to leave details for when they find out though

Or his size 6 timberlands. He might get a grand for a PS5 but he'll always have abnormally small feet. Poor lad.

For the people ordering on Amazon are you using parcel motel or something or were you able to get it to ship to Ireland?

FlubberJones

Haven't jumped into the maelstrom of trying to preorder, will wait for something resembling a calm and see what options there are. Historically I've done ok getting the machines around launch date so will "hope" I can do the same

Parcel Motel has to be used.

I used parcel wizard but it's above their dimensions so looks like it's going to cost 20 quid instead of 4. People are saying Parcel motel will fit the lockers, though. I might switch to them even though i've had terrible experiences with them in the past.

That's really bad nw

Cheers. I was gonna try get the digital version but they only seemed to have the more expensive one so I just went with that
Looking forward to playing it but I'll be nervous when I get the update to say it's with parcel motel in case it gets misplaced

I once get a weighting scales through Parcel Motel, because the person sending the scales had the same name as me but was from Dublin so they re-directed it to me.

Needless to say the scales wasnt for baking or weighing out food portions. :pac:

I only opened it after emailing and ringing PM asking to send it back and reimburse me, after not hearing back from them for at least 3/4 weeks I opened it and binned it.

Why do you think gamestop order would fall through? I'm not a fan of theirs but is there evidence of them botching confirmed preordered items before?

Na, it should be Ok, I'm just spreading my bets.

Ordered something from them other day. Had to go up north 1st then down here to them. Txt from them yesterday so it's 2 big for them to put into their parcel boxes so collect from finglas sorting office. 7 euro over the size so that's good so 2 days to collect it or price goes up. So should only cost u 7 euro
