Changed from PM to Irish address (Dublin based) . Fingers crossed for a Friday delivery

Where some people not saying when they changed address it was giving a delivery date of 24th Nov?

It would be great if nobody bought these and the person got stuck with them.

I'm more upset at the fact one of the boxes is facing the wrong way

Anyone that got the dispatch email from Smyth's with DPD tracking, did your tracking number initially say 'Please enter a valid numeric consignment number'? And then it was updated, or was there info there already? Thanks.

Amazon always give a buffer. Amazon said this item would arrive on the 12th November, it arrived on the 10th November so if they use their own Courier, UPS or DPD(DPD was used twice recently by Amazon UK for me)

For anyone still looking Very Uk will have them on 19th.




Also Currys UK

Thanks for that Dan, hopefully some of us will be able to grab one. I know Box.co.uk's "wave 2" will end up being like wave 10 for me with the way they've handled things!

Have Amazon taken money from anyone yet - presume they will take it tomorrow for shipping on Wednesday?

Does anyone know how reserving with Argos works? Do you pay for the item when you reserve it or when you pick it up? Ie, if I want to reserve something for my friend do I need his card details when I place the reservation

You pay in the store when collecting the item. However, it seems Argos won't be getting any PS5 consoles in. Best ring your local store to confirm.

Yep, mine was the same. Once it goes through you then get to watch it for another couple of days stressing as to why it isn't moving on from "order data received"!!

Legitimately more stressed out by the PS5 launch than I was when my missus gave me a ring 3 years ago to tell me she had gone into labour early (joking...kinda)

It's telling people 21-24th for delivery when you updated from a PM address to an Irish address.

Not sure whether to change it or not. I'd rather have it Friday, than risk not having it for the weekend at all.

PM got my headset from NI to Dublin in the usual timeframe (received on Thursday in NI, ready to be collected at PM locker on Friday morning).

The PS5 is oversized though, not sure how much extra time that will add...

ordered Spiderman and Demon Souls on Friday afternoon with Smyths, got email from DPD they will be arriving with the delivery this afternoon!

I ordered Assassin's Creed Valhalla last week with Smyths and it arrived 2 days later by DPD as well. I haven't seen Smyths use An Post for deliveries in quite a while.

Twice for me. Valhalla came Express no signature. Accessories came Express with Signature. Not that a signature is required anyway.

For me with An Post they are 6 days a week and somebody mentioned here they've been out on a Sunday. I did get a delivery from An Post on the last bank holiday as well. So for me they're better than others couriers as they're out more often.

So my assassin's creed order from gamestop was deployed with UPS on thursday evening. arrived there a few mins ago. so 3 working days (if you include saturday). which if my maths is correct, means the PS5 should deploy this evening to get here for thursday. PLEASE

In contrast to that I ordered Valhalla on the 11th, shipped with An Post and it arrived on the 12th(order page suggested the 17th as an arrival date). Accessories went with An Post(ordered 8hr earlier on the 11th than Valhalla) arrived on the 14th(website said the 16th would be when they arrived).

So I would says Smyths web ordering system is not accounting for An Post working weekends either so dates pushed forward as buffer.

I only just found this thread - it looks like more orders opened on the weekend, and I missed them?

Am I goosed so - unlikely to be more stock this week I'm guessing?

I've had every playstation except ps3, and I'm mad to get the PS5. I know there might be a pro version in 18 months, or at least a slightly improved model, but with the lockdown it would be great to have for Christmas. Any suggestions on what else I can do - barring getting scalped. I saw posts about €800e+ on adverts.ie, I refuse to give them the satisfaction!

Interesting that they used UPS. Hope they do that for the PS5 rather than using An Post

Anyone think there will be more Pulse 3D stock this side of Xmas?

Setup notifications on stock informer.

I've had 5 email notifications about it being in stock on Amazon in the last week.
