Wasn't the initial pre-order at some crazy hour of the night? For the second round, Smyth's tweeted that it would be at lunchtime the following day, without being specific about the exact time. They at least gave us a fair idea.

Aye I got mine on the lunchtime the following day one, not the original middle of the night one.

I wonder will they announce time or just do it quitely yo avoid big rush at 12 o clock in day and bring whole site down. I say that's last thing they want so close to Christmas

It was around half 11 at night after the price reveal. I learned about it on here.

Stock was just released on Amazon.fr . I was too late to grab one but a few people posted about it on twitter.

Following on from my above post. Amazon.Fr had stock relased at 4pm.

This DealFrance twitter page says to keep an eye out at 7pm too. Might be worth a refresh.

Yeah it does. Which means even later for here you'd have to think but if you get one of these you can always keep trying for local stock after I guess?

Will they definitely ship Ps5's to Ireland from that french Amazon ? Had trouble getting the UK site to do it on Thursday even before it Sold out. It was saying something about how would you like to /deliver order this or something. Couldn't add to cart.

Was going to try for amazon, but afraid now I'd get a bag of rice instead.. Don't think I would survive that. Do ye think smyths might have them in stock in the shop? That might turn into a sleeping bag queqe all night...

You can't browse in Smyths, c + c only.

I wouldn't mind those bags of rice stories, people would do anything for a bit of attention on social media and, while some may be true, I'd imagine most are fabricated.

Definitely agree, what's stopping someone putting a bag of rice in the box (taking the Ps5 out) then trying to get a refund from amazon.

500e back in hand and Ps5 on the shelf, nice little scam.....

I believe that Amazon record/track serial numbers. If you report a console as stolen in transit they can get Sony to block the console.

Just got my €30 Tesco digital gift card for the failed ps5 order, fair play to Tesco

I would only I'm pretty sure the Mrs has this lined up for me already, all I need now is to secure that ps5 :-)

I really hope they are available before Xmas. Yes for personal reasons (my son) but also to thwart those bottom feeding low lives selling them for 1,000 sterling, trying to profit off other peoples bad predicament.

I'm the same. They said money would be taken " first thing in the morning" . I'd love to see the money taken but it could be an hour or two, yet.

I was just charged now, confirmation text yesterday I’ve the early pickup spot reserved, hopefully all goes well when I get to the store, no mishaps

I saw some people on Twitter in the uk claiming all was fine for them until they arrived in store, magically then there was no console, but that may just be lies

Any updates regarding stock availability anywhere?

Mando77

Same , any stock updates for PS5 console greatly appreciated to make sure Santa Claus arrives

Im getting that desperate and starting to worry that Im starting to look at ebay

stesaurus

There were quite a few stores with stock available during the night in the US. Could be just due to Black Friday or maybe could point to another wave of stock available soon in Europe also.

Don't overpay for a gaming console which in a few months will be in stock pretty much everywhere. A little bit more patience will save you a good bit of unnecessary spent money.


I am sure that Sony along with Retailers wont want to loose out on Black Friday sales (especially during such pandemic stricken times) or losing out on Christmas business, otherwise they would have launched the console in January.
