Fair play to HN that was better than adding to basket and hopefully stopped bots

For web users it was a shambles! I refreshed the actual PS5 section and got nothing. My brother saw it on his phone, but I couldn't for the life of me see any banner on desktop.

Yeah, there was nothing on Safari when I was looking. Missed it by seconds in the end I reckon.

Got a disc one thanks be to jaysus

Exactly. Good on them.

antimatterx

Went to book a disc when there was 26 remaining and missed out. The digital was secured with no trouble, however it's no use to me personally. I'll offer it to a friend, as I need a disc version.

So, Smyths will probably have a few at some stage today I would imagine?

Smyths taking their sweet time. I imagine they'll have the most stock of all considering they haven't taken any orders since the pre orders

Was very well run in Harvey Norman there no way to bots selecting loads at once. Hopefully secured a Digital One! Hope works out and yous all got sorted !

Excellent the way they handled it, keep the bots/scalpers out of it

lemonkey

The more stock that's bought the more chance you have of getting the next batch.

I'd imagine Smyths is gonna have loads.

Might be worth keeping an eye on Did.ie too. They had stock on launch day similar to HN.

Oh wow, fair play.

If anybody got the digital and don't want it, I'll take it off their hands.

And someone else here said that all those orders were cancelled so there's no real way of knowing.

yea of course me either, from what i heard it was the hieararchy, i got sorted for a digital still need to source one for santa for my nephew

bonzothebuzz

I secured a digital version on HN but will swap, paying the difference, for a disc version if anyone wants to do that

Berty

I think people should move their "swapsies" requests to another thread. There is a lot of stock dropping today it seems in various places. Maybe keep if as clean as possible.

gglavin7771

Did anyone get the follow up email from HN yet? To pay for it

el Fenomeno

I'd say there is less scalper demand for the digital as even CEX will only buy them for below-cost price.

javagal

Amazon germany had them. Went from checkout

Edenane

Amazon de and amazon fr just had stock as well. Anyone else having a problem were you get to checkout and it just dissappears? This has happened on amazon uk, de and fr EVERY SINGLE time I've tried to buy it

Thanks for the link Drumpot - managed to reserve a Digital. Was then doubting legitimacy of page as SSL cert was only valid from today and linked to lots of other sites...but see it was up on their Facebook page also.
Santa is relieved now!

Amazon de digital version: https://www.amazon.de/-/en/gp/product/B08H98GVK8/ref=ox_sfl_cart_mbc_s1?smid=&th=1

Has anyone got that link to the page that has all the retailers listed and links please

Cmacc4

For anyone still unfortunate enough (like myself), to not get one and is still on the Gamestop waiting list, I was talking to someone in the shop who said "they're very optimistic" that they'll fulfill their pre-orders before Christmas...


Take from that what you will, just relaying the info.




Anywhere else we're expecting to see stock being dropped today? I keep missing out

Were you on a computer? I couldn’t see one on my laptop, but it popped up on the mobile site.
