    My order left Tamworth at 8.31 am on Saturday.
    Any idea when I should expect it to arrive in Ireland?

    Mine must be on the same shipment as yours as it also left at 8:31. Would expect it to show up in Dublin tomorrow and hopefully out for a Tuesday delivery.

    My UPS tracking has a scheduled delivery for Tuesday after arriving yesterday in Dublin. Getting excited wahoo.

    Are they not all down for scheduled delivery Tuesday regardless of when the label was printed?

    UPS tracking is saying my Series X should be delivered by end of day today. UPS is always in my estate before 10am, so hopefully get it by then.

    Fair play you lucky sod. Mine hasn't been scanned since it left the UK Saturday morning


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,435 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    No update from GameStop yet so hoping they dispatch it today. Very doubtful it would make it out for tomorrow.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,777 ✭✭✭dmcg90


    Any updates for GS pre-orders that could get their console posted to them? Haven’t seen anything yet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,375 ✭✭✭baldshin


    Amazon Prime letting me down again on delivery times. Had originally ordered to Parcel Motel as they wouldn't ship to Ireland. Showed a delivery date of Tuesday. Then, last week they emailed to say they can now deliver to Ireland, so I changed the delivery address, new delivery date is now Saturday!! It's a farce claiming 2 day delivery to Ireland, and it somehow taking 4 days longer to get to the Republic than the north.

    Can you change back to parcel motel? I don’t have prime and mine is due Saturday

    Nothing. The €3.50 shipping has me wondering are they being shipped standard An Post with no tracking.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48 Derek..


    Still no scan into Ireland almost 48 hours after leaving the UK.
    I'm sure it should be late afternoon today though :)

    I said this a few pages back I went and checked my orders from GameStop online and all the 3.50 shipments I used where nightline and not an post

    So we need to be positive about GameStop for a change and cross our ring era and hope we get the Xbox tomorrow if not another day or two isn’t the end of the world


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,308 ✭✭✭kiddums


    Still no shipping info from MS. Still saying estimated delivery 10th

    Screw that. It’a not like they didn’t know 10th was launch date. It wouldn’t have killed them to have it set up properly and communicate out. Especially for a company that’s practically on deaths door and bankruptcy is a few pages away.

    It’s only a games console at the end of the day,

    Like one thing I will add there is so much negative about GameStop yes they do crappy stuff but when there gone we are going to miss them and be sorry that there gone,

    Anyway it could be worse and what’s a day or two late for a console ?

    My ps5 is coming from amazon and I know I won’t get it on to a week later and I am like it’s only a week who cares ?

    Mine scanned into Finglas at 11:08pm last night and tracking has updated to delivery by end of day today!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,444 ✭✭✭recyclops


    Mine was scanned into finglas this morning at 7 still says delivery for tomorrow.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,807 ✭✭✭skerry


    I still haven't had an update on UPS tracking on the website since it left Tamworth but just had a text from driver there asking for eircode and he said he will be in the area around 5:30pm :)

    Which area of the country are you based? I know my UPS is in Shannon who by all accounts are horrendous so I'm expecting it to just show up at the door at any stage (if they bother to try and deliver). This happened a few weeks back with another parcel

    I'm in Clare myself so I'd imagine coming from Shannon too.

    Same for me. They took payment on Friday evening finally and my order changed so that I could no longer Cancel or Update Payment Options but it has not moved since. Still sitting at Pre-Ordered, no e-mails, no tracking numbers yet MS have taken 499.99.

    I am hoping to see an e-mail/tracking number this morning, but I am now 100% sure I wont be receiving it until later in the week. Shame, but it is what it is.

    Honestly I won’t be one bit sorry GameStop are gone. Apart from the people who’ve lost their jobs. They’ve treated their staff despicably during the pandemic in the US. Not only that but they’ve cut employees hours and hired other people to make up the required hours to avoid paying employer benefits etc.

    Aside from all that. I work in an industry where we hold people accountable for their actions, the scheduled they’re held to (within acceptable deviations) and above all communication.
    GameStop by my reckoning have failed all three of these. So yes I do care. It’s what makes me good at my job and why I’ve never been out of a job since I was 18 and why I keep walking into other jobs.
    And I know it’s just a console but that’s beside the point,
    It’s all about respect for the consumer which we see less and less of nowadays and even less respect for their employees.

    Unfortunately it's too late to change it now. Hoping they've just overestimated the delivery date to be sure, as I've had quite a few deliveries delayed from them lately.

    God, I'm raging now.


    Ordered from MS day one. Charge still pending on my PayPal account and my MS order hasn't changed from preorder status yet like a few others on here.


    BUT, I got a message from PayPal today to verify my account due to suspicious activity (i.e. the MS charge). Had to verify proof of identity etc with them which I already had on file there. They say it'll take 2-4 days to review my documents (even though they were already uploaded before).


    Can't change how I pay with MS anymore. Order still pending on my Paypal. If I miss out because of this I'll be livid.

    I'll have zero issues when GS go to the wall either, aside from the job losses for people. The sooner the better for it to he honest they're a horrible company and I can't remember the last time I even set foot in one, might have been a decade ago?!?

    EB were the last great mainstream gaming shop, ever since they disappeared things on the high street went downhill.

    I got an email last week from MS and a pending transaction for €499. Have my tracking number and it appears to be in Dublin this morning.

    Got another email from MS this morning though (same order number) telling me I'll be charged as soon as my item ships. Wonder have they made a mistake and sent me two Xbox?
