Got my confirmation.....

That I'm NOT getting one at launch. Makes no sense how someone who ordered after me in the same store is ahead of me in the queue and is getting one on launch

That is odd. Did you both preorder the disc version

brady12

got an email aswel saying "included with launch allocation " but dont think that guarantees me one day one?

Emma201801

I got an email an hour ago saying included in the launch by GameStop, however for an email only 15 mins ago says now I am not included - I had one hour of happiness, anyone selling a PS5 - either version- I would only be delighted to buy it!

Email from GameStop saying I am in the second batch that is not guaranteed for launch day and possibly not until 2021.

You got a more detailed email than me so- mine just says it will not be available for launch day and I can either remain in the queue or get full refund!

Does anyone know if Smyths have started sending out any emails yet? I'm nervous!

Potential-Monke

I'm taking for granted that "included for launch allocation means a launch console.

Got let down on a digital version with Scan.co.uk, so would very much appreciate a shout if anyone does find themselves with a spare pre order.... all the best

Emails for what? Didn't you get a confirmation email?

Smyths stated that all pre orders are launch day orders.

If you have an order confirmation, you have one for launch.

Smyth's seemed to know their initial allocation and stopped pre-orders as soon as they went out.



Gamestop however, have been taking pre-orders for at least a year now, that's why they're sending these emails.

Oh thank the Lord. I pre-ordered, but haven't thought about it since. Panic set in when I realised I'm not as in the loop about it as I should be!

Same email as me!

There is obviously massive demand for this before Christmas, whats the chance of them being easy to get after the launch? After the dust settles in the run up to xmas. Surely they won't let all that demand go unsatisfied.

TheIrishGrover

So my pre-order has been claimed. Hope ye can source one for the auld Christmas.

I’ve not got any email from GameStop at all today? Have one pre ordered in store since launch...Should I be worried?

If you login to your account on their website I think it has the same image as what they're emailing out so you should be able to get confirmation that way.

Just got confirmation on launch ill have one

I got an email from Gamestop as well to say my PS5 is included with the launch allocation.Happy Days!! :-)

seandotcomm

Preordered mine back in August and had €400 paid off. Got an email earlier saying I wasn't getting one for launch
That's a balls

tobothehobo

Anyone get an email regarding preorders in gamestop kilkenny? I have nothing yet?

dan786

Ordered 2 the night of price reveal and I am in the launch day allocation for both. Have two in Smyths also so might let any spares go. I need 2 for sure so will need to ask friends and family for other two.

DO NOT PM ME - If I do not have any takers for the other two I will post on here for retail price.

carter001

I should mention that I screwed up my order dates..I actually ordered the PS5 in june and not September as I stated.I just completely forgot when I ordered it.

Anyway hopefully more people will get good news.

Glad GS buyers got some kind of confirmation today. Even if you're not getting it at launch, at least ye know now and hopefully ye still get one before Christmas.

August was quite late in the day. How much you had paid off is irrelevant. A person with just 50 euro down but had the pre order in much earlier was always going get preference

Hope all the GS panicking is over for everyone now.

Push notifications come through from Amazon every so often. I got 2 today, one for Disc version and one for the charging station. I couldn't react in time to either so missed out.

Damn - didn't get these. Took a look at my app. I had the website set up to get an email when they come into stock. But just noticed on the app you have to go to the app sales page and click "receive push notification when becomes available". Balls.

R.F.

Strange that some are getting warning that they might not get it until 2021 and others like my email just said not in initial launch. I wonder do they know there is a potential 2nd batch pre xmas

May I ask when you pre ordered?

Bigmac1euro

Did anyone pre-order with curry’s?
What’s the situation? I pre-ordered via curry’s in shop but they seemed quite vague on allocation.

billybonkers

GS should have another drop before Christmas. Looks like 3 emails going out.

One fore launch, one not launch and one for 2021

Cmacc4

Has anyone with a preorder from in store,I preordered mine in Tullamore,not heard a thing today?

R.F.

Might be handy if we could compile a list of Gamestop preorders so we can work out roughly where each of us who missed out stand

Quote this with your details

Where: In store - Gorey, Co. Wexford
When: September 3rd
GameStop email: Not with initial launch but no mention of 2021.

tobothehobo

Is there anyway to track preorders for in store without a gamestop account? A tracking number on receipt ect.

j_mo

Where: in store Castlebar, Co Mayo
When: 28th of August
Email: not in initial launch and no mention of 2021 either

Cmacc4

Curious to know this too. I ordered in person in swords, but I read online afterwards that stores were told not to take orders after 1pm that day - I preordered around 1.15pm. It all went through for me and I received a receipt, but I can’t see any order number or any other unique code. No idea if I actually made the allocation or not. Maybe no one has an order number and they will do first come first served on the day.

I managed to secure an order in smyths anyway, so I’ll have that spare Curry’s pre-order available on the day, if it actually works. I won’t be dealing with PMs but I’ll drop a message back in here on the day of launch, once I know what the story is.

Where:Kilkenny
When: september 17th
Email: didn't receive one.
I understand some of us aren't getting one for launch but to not even get an email is pretty disappointing.
Especially seeing as they have my money.
If I don't hear anything before they can reopen I might just ask for a refund.
