    GameStop online is taking orders for the series S.

    I took a chance and ordered the series S online. Hopefully their stock is real and not just an extended waiting list.

    Sorry for asking this again, I see they have them in stock (Series S) and wonder they fulfilled your order or you will have to wait ...

    Thanks in advance.

    You could always buy Xbox credit from them and use that on the Microsoft store to buy a Series X?

    Anyone any tips where to get an X? its going to be my second console but think getting an S with the lower resolution would be pointless especially if its linked up to a 4k ready tv have a midrange lg 43 inch,

    Checking the websites plenty of S about no x.

    Also would I be better off just getting the S if its going to just be a gamepass machine and maybe a bit of emulation?

    Check out the stock checker on https://www.twitch.tv/cosie90

    You can sign up to the discord and get notified of any drops on your phone. That’s how I got mine.

    I'm pretty sure you can walk into a Curry's and ask for them. Not sure whether they're all sold out, though.

    Curry's are open for essential items afaik. If you go in to collect an essential item, and ask for a Series X at the counter, you might get lucky. Other people have.

    In Argos Liffey Valley now, and if I punch in the code for a Series X, it says I can collect.

    Did you try on the terminal in an Argos? You'd need to physically go in

    No, I was in there collecting something else, so just thought I'd see what the terminal said.

    I read an article last night about AMD and they have apologised for the reduction in production but have just brought new manufacturing plants online so they expect to increase production of chips in the coming weeks/months. They said that the demand was very high in both the console and PC space and they have struggled to keep up. Hopefully they can get on top of the demand now and we will see Series S/X and PS5 becoming readily available.

    Hey all, just wondering if anyone knows of any stock being available? I recall someone mentioning that a Currys in Blanc had some behind the counter.

    I rang my local Argos about it and they said they are not allowed to sell me one even if they had stock.

    I guarantee if you reserve one and get the reservation number, then go in and pay at the kiosk and collect, you'd have absolutely no issues.

    The stock i mentioned earlier is pretty much all gone now anyway.

    It won't let me reserve one. Just gives an error, regardless of whether it's in stock or expected to be in stock.

    I just reserved one in Dundalk without any issues, to make sure it works.

    There's only about 3 other stores in the country that have stock now

    Sligo, Limerick Childers, Longford, Portlaoise.

    I reserved one for pickup next week in my local store, but I got no reservation number and the website says it was not purchased. I did get an email saying my reservation was confirmed though. It seems to be a mess.

    That's an Argos bug, which they seem to have deliberately introduced with these consoles. If you get a reservation code, then your reservation is good.

    Right now, the only 2 Argos stores with stock at this minute are Limerick Childers Road, and Portlaoise.

    Unfortunately I won't be able to collect from either do those stores, so I'm SOL for now.

    My local one says reserve for collection on the 2nd-4th so I guess all I can do is see if one comes in stock then.

    Killarney, or Tralee. I have permission to travel to Tralee from work too, but I'm trying to stay as local as possible.
