Ahh lads, just want to say thank you too you all.

Some really lovely people here today have offered me consoles but there is really no need.

I have just gone to bed and husband has come in. The young fella called him and said Mammy is really upset that she couldn't get me one. She has tried really hard hasn't she. Let's get her something nice as a present tomorrow, like the biggest bar of chocolate.

Going to bed happy, faith restored in humanity and young fella has made a huge breakthrough. (he has ASD, ADHD and DCD). I do think he will be upset on Christmas day if I don't get one, but I don't think we will have the massive meltdown I anticipated.

Thanks to everyone for the site tips and help.

Ye are a great bunch

Hi, are you selling that bar of chocolate? If so I'd love to take it. Thanks.

Thanks for the update, the hundreds of people watching this thread to get a ps5 really appreciate it.

Sony has said that stock will be, low. I think Covid has affected production. Hopefully another batch before x-mas, but will probably be low numbers.

There is a big difference between PS5 and Xbox. Xbox are not that hard to get, there were plenty around last week. PS5 much higher demand, yes there will be more but not "plenty" before Xmas. There will be more stock but not for everyone so people will need to be quick and on the lookout.

You've more playstations and xboxes than anyone here. Don't be scaremongering people saying they wont get one. I've seen at least 70 xboxs pop up in smyths today alone. It's been similar last few days. Playstations will pop up and hopefully demand will be met.

May help if you actually read posts and what they mean.

This is what my post said to make it easier for you.

1.PS5 demand is higher than Xbox.
2.It is harder to get than an Xbox.
3.Probably will be harder to get by Xmas compared to Xbox
4. There will me more stock for sure but people will need to be quick and on the lookout. (Xbox sold out in mins every store is showed up on , so you had to be quick for that also)

All are facts.

Which part is scare mongering?

This thread is a disaster to be honest. Full of nonsense and the odd bit of help and even when that’s provided, it’s shot down with scepticism. Yes I get the irony in my post but it needed to be said.

I googled it. Sony are denying it saying no production problem.

It's ridiculous people coming on here scaremongering. That'll cause people panic buy at crazy prices to people with loads of consoles

Just an update on Littlewoods. They emailed earlier to say they will deliver mid December. I got one off them yesterday.

You can keep this attitude but it's not going to help you get one. It's widely known Sony haven't even managed to fulfil their pre-orders so expecting them to have that much stock produced and with retailers in 4 weeks is unrealistic when they've been preparing for months for launch.

Presume it's to be seen not be enabling scalpers. Focus is only ever on high profile items though.

So why are CEX allowed to do it?

Hey guys
If I pre ordered at the start of September, when can I expect to get it? Pre ordered with gamestop BTW, has anyone else pre ordered the first week of September and got any info??

Can we cool it with the in-thread bickering? Jeez.

I'd say that is down to Distilled Media not owning CEX and therefore not having a say in how they operate.

Did anyone actually manage to get a definite confirmed ps5 yesterday?

Yes, I ended up with two confirmed. I got one from tesco, but didn't get a confirmation email until tonight. Then I got one on harvey norman that was cancelled, but they called today and told me they have one for me to collect tomorrow.

And I nearly met with a lad from Facebook today for €1400. Delighted I didn't now.

Harvey norman said they got about 30 in Swords for release day, but they had 45,000 on their website.

That's cause he's selling them all for massive profit!!!

He only talks about hardware and their prices in places like cex and adverts.

Rarely if ever mentions actually playing games!!

Mod note: Folks please keep this to stock updates only.

Please note: nobody knows for sure yet when there’ll be more PS5s available, or where. Unless there’s official confirmation or actual stock available continue to take everything as speculation. There will be more, of course, but we have to wait and see when. That’s the current situation, hopefully we can keep this thread solely for proper updates as they’re announced.

Did anyone manage to place an order on Amazon, based outside of Dublin for a PS5 and it's still not dispatched?

No change on mine outside of the order confirmation at 13:03 and their support said they would "try help speed up the dispatch"...

This thread is for stock updates. There's another thread for pre orders.
