Hi everyone.

A girlfriend of a PS5 searcher/fanatic/worshipper here. He has a big birthday coming up in March and I'm wondering what chance have I got of securing one as a surprise? I have read through this thread all evening and downloaded the stock app. Any advice for someone who feels very much out of her depth?

Follow this thread. I picked one up in DID after getting a tip here.

Hopefully Smyths and Harvey Norman will be released soon.

Don't feel out of your depth, it's more about luck than actually knowing anything.
Best thing to do is check this thread in the morning around 9-10 and then 9-10 in the evening. Most retailers seem to drop stock in the morning and Smyths seems to do it at night (just going by what happened previously)
I'm not sure what the stock will be like in March, hopefully better than what it is now... There could be more stock coming in the next few weeks but then again I thought that January would've had a lot more stock than there ended up being.
I got lucky by seeing a post yesterday saying that DID had stock and rang them straight away and got one so just keep an eye out.
Good luck

Make sure to have created an account with all the shops(Smyths and Harvey Norman seem to be whats left to add stock) and add ur card details. This will help save time going threw checkout. Smyths won't add your card till you have made your first purchase,so maybe order a game he myt like for the ps5,or buy something really cheap,and ur card details will save then and all you'll have to input next time is the 3 numbers at the back of the card.I wish you luck

You can bud, the 20th September in one of Gamestop’s main branches. Got the email this morning. GameStop get allocated stock according to its branch rating. That’s more then likely why we see more stock going to Dublin.

For March, they’ve been up this whole time, bad trust pilot reviews, there is no way they can fulfil all the orders people are getting off them, for anyone’s sake wait
to get one from a credible site

I had a PS5 but sold it to Cex a few weeks later and made 200 euro profit. The only reason I wanted it was for Demon Souls which I completed . Now with Re5 coming soon I have my regrets even though that will be coming to the PS4 as well id still rather play it on the ps5. Im not in a hurry to get the ps5 again but where is the best bet for putting a deposit on one

For all those who ordered PS5 from DID via phone, did anyone actually get the console ? Or have they provided a date for collection ?

No haven't heard anything other than what they said when I ordered, which was Thursday or Friday. My friend got his online order today though and that was delivered, not click and collect so you'd imagine its there tomorrow is a good bet, if not today.

Lol , this is brilliant , good enough for ya hope ya never get one

I've no problem with someone selling one for a profit to CEX, they pay a market price and they'll likely be the ones who get stung in the end. Victimless crime.

Getting rid of something so sought after and then regretting it and coming here looking for tips on getting another one, on the other hand... good luck :P

I had to go into the shop to put money down, they wouldn’t accept payment over the phone.
I rang today and they said they should have them Friday morning

I had to do the same, put down the money and wait ... I rang them minutes ago and they said it will be available to collect tomorrow or Friday but they did not have the Demon's Souls in stock so my options were to wait for it or a game refund.

Ah Jesus I think I’m the only one been stuck with demon souls haha... I had to drive a hour to secure my ps5. I will hopefully get it before the weekend is out too

Captain Flaps

Must have been bad traffic if a drive of less than 5km took longer than an hour!

I'm in south dublin, even if I had wanted to try Naas or somewhere my chances of getting stopped by the guards along the way would have been close to 100%
