    Also feel like smyths will be the most reliable in comparison to other places


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,147 ✭✭✭Lord Spence


    Hopefully third time lucky after Tesco and Littlewoods

    Dont smyths always announce stuff like this though , I really feel it’s just a glitch as they have to change the website for opening tmrw , I wouldn’t hold my breath or be staying up all night guys


  • Registered Users Posts: 55 ✭✭Marksman1

    Mate of mine got xbox on launch day but it was 430am with smiths but could be a one off.


  • Registered Users Posts: 209 ✭✭Saz2020


    No other item is going ape tho just the ps5

    Would it be the case that they don’t want their website to crash ? They haven’t announced xbox restocked as far as I know

    Personally I think no announcement is the best way, otherwise scalpers will be all over it


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,143 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    Surely smyths would make an announcement about via an interest email if they were getting stock in.

    I have to try, I'm not very tech savvy and have dyspraxia.

    I have slow fingers and not quick enough. Launch date lost so many from basket on tesco, DID and amazon.

    I stupidly believed I had one in gamestop on pre-order, now its 27th Dec.

    In fairness it doesn’t matter if they announce it or not when they have freaks like us noticing the slightest change on websites within seconds ha but I really don’t think this is anything , Xbox’s have been popping up daily , around the country , how they are going to distribute the PS5’s is gonna be interesting

    That might alert the bots and scalpers to go and bulk buy again.

    After seeing how Harvey Norman went maybe they thought best not too.

    The scalper scum use bots so an announcement wouldn't make any difference. I'm hoping Smyths are going to use Click & Collect for their next round of PS5 stock. They limit them to one per customer which should make things more difficult for scalpers and their pesky bots.

    Thats true, according to my mate he stayed up all night 🌙


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,952 ✭✭✭JamboMac


    I really hope this works out, I miss sleep, but scalpers and bots sadly probably know about this change.

    Let's hope we all aren't picking the same store.

    They didn't the last time when I got my one, I was waiting for an email back and only for a little glance in here I saw it up for pre order on Smyth's...

    It was 23:37PM I pre ordered mine according to my email I got back from them...

    Probably for the best to combat the scalping going on
