Another **** show. Pre orders will go live at some complete random time and nobody will have a clue and then they’ll all be gone within seconds.

Has Argos.ie ever done a pre-order?

Cluster **** if they even attempt it!

Exclamation Marc

https://www.scan.co.uk/ have some preorders.

They ship to PM.

EDIT: Seems there's no guarantee of delivery on launch. But might be worth a look.

Argos said 17th Sept, so guys this could go live any time between 00.00am to 23.59pm. That's a long aul wait, my fingers are aching from refreshing already.

Can always cancel afterwards if it doesn't ship on time.

Was only posting as it was a potential, can't guarantee anything myself

Just ordered one from scan, don't even need PM, they straight up take Irish addresses for like 12gbp delivery

It only took a PayPal authorisation by the way (fro the full amount), no charge yet so it could be tomorrow or when shipped, not sure.

That's fine. It was an early enough order so hopefully it'll be in the first batch of stock. If I get Argos or somewhere else in the meantime, I can cancel this one.

They said on twitter it would be overnight so it'll be sometime between now and 8am. No more specific unfortunately.

How can i order one from Argos UK

The_Mask

Has anyone ordered from Irish site yet?

trying to order on argos uk..saying order couldnnot be processed does that mean put of stock

MrManBuz

Been trying to order from Argos UK. My payment has failed multiple times now.... And when I click to pay with PayPal nothing happens. Just doesn't seem like I'm going to get one lol.

The Ayatolla

Yeah same, my Revolut failed due to suspicious transaction despite me authenticating within Revolut via their Verified by Visa thing.

Paypal link wouldn't work.

Very annoying!

MrManBuz

What's even more annoying is I just checked my bank account and there's two pending transactions from argos... So I didn't even get an order and now I've got a grand locked up in processing to be released god knows when.

I wish I could just go to bed, feel like a right gob****e staying up the whole night now, guess I'll have to have an extra coffee... Or 3 today.

0ph0rce0

Same as above. Got one in. Didn't register properly and 500 quid in limbo until they reverse it.

Knew it **** up, seemed too easy 😂

Are they a reliable source?

facehugger99

I’m presuming by Jan/Feb there’ll be plenty of availability.

I might just wait until the panic dies down.
