Just a heads up for anyone thinking of trying Game. I waited in the queue last time for them for an hour got to the page to order one for sometime in December and it wouldn't let me add one to the basket. It kept saying they don't currently support international shipping.

You'll need a VPN for sure.

Undoubtedly, you will need vpn to buy anything from them[from my recent experience]

Currys no good either. He said it wud be online, now I know that xbox was released in currys last week and not a word of it was on their website and I asked him about that but he couldn't give an explanation as to why that happened.

Fair play on keeping us updated with Smyths and the rest this morning. 👍

Sometimes I hate living in Kilkenny.

Is there no Smyths in Kilkenny?
I’m hoping to get one in Waterford so if you manage to get one there I could drive to the Kilkenny border and meet you with it I’m presuming we allowed travel anywhere within our own county ??

Just a heads up for the people considering Game. I managed to get an order in for one on the 19th after sitting in a queue for an hour. They told me my order was successful and I'd get the console on the 10th of December. Money was taken from my account on the 20th (was told in the email it'd be taken 48hrs before it was dispatched) and it was in the post on Monday the 23rd, had it delivered on the 25th. So you may well get it earlier than the dates shown if you order one

Anytime I’ve tried to order from there it won’t let me because it recognises I’m in Ireland , how did you get around this please ?

I live in the UK, I assume using a VPN and address pal or parcel motel would work though

Game are in northern Ireland, if I was assured of one on the 24th I'd drive up and get it.

Sounds like the 2nd wave of stock is on it's way to Ireland then. It's anyone's guess when it goes live though.

He told me he’d have it this week or start of next if that’s any help

I do wonder why the only day you could find the ps5 on Argos was between 4 and 9 launch day, hasn't been available since, would guess staff got those as well, did he have a clue regarding amount of stock or were they limited to one per employee even?

Not dismissing this entirely and no disrespect to poster - But I will point out that it's about the 5th contradictory Argos rumour on this thread.

I heard that if you can beat the Argos Warehouse Manager in a bare knuckle brawl by moonlight they give you a PS5 and a small bucket for your teeth.

Just going off what I heard from a close friend that the manager of the particular Argos asked staff would they like to order one and I was told by him they are expecting to have it this week or early next week

Apologies I have no idea about stock but it was one per person because I asked him could he get me one and he couldn’t

Anyone that has worked retail would know this is par for the course. Of course staff get first dibs (perks of the job) so if they are (finally) coming in they'll get them.
