Don’t be sarcastic with me.
Did anyone give Maneater a shot? Its pretty good and an easy / quick platinum if anyone is into that
December most likely
Thanks. Added 2 step. Don’t know why I didn’t bother in the first place!
My brother in law on Saturday bought a ps5 on Facebook, transferred the money over and has not received the console or a tracking number, poor bugger been scammed I think. He paid 450 for it as well so not like it was helping a scalper (albeit he is just helping a scammer).
Has anyone had new grips for the ds5 ? My puppy has decided to chew mine to bits the little bastard.
Finally got a shipping confirmation for the Pulse headset a month after placing a back-order on ShopTo 
How long ago did you place that?Finally got a shipping confirmation for the Pulse headset a month after placing a back-order on ShopTo
Looks like pre-orders are back in for (ugh) Game.
You give some advice Hermano.
Great advice.
Did he use PayPal?
Nope, bank transfer, I think he’s done for.
Could he talk to his bank? He has this geezers bank details, so could locate him potentially.

You get a warning message, when you pay by bank transfer if names don’t match bank accounts. If he skipped that then he is done for. But if it matches then there is a chance he can get it back. Just depends on the bank.
Oooh not too bad then.
Aaah I see, thanks for your help! I’ll get him to contact his bank.
Stick in the queue buddy.
The last one I got, my Mrs was in for just over an hour and still got one. The bundles work best it seems.
Aaaand it's out of stock again
From citizens advice:
If you paid by bank transfer or Direct Debit
Contact your bank immediately to let them know what’s happened and ask if you can get a refund.
Most banks should reimburse you if you’ve transferred money to someone because of a scam. This type of scam is known as an ‘authorised push payment’.
If you've paid by Direct Debit, you should be able to get a full refund under the Direct Debit Guarantee.
If you can’t get your money back and you think this is unfair, you should follow the bank’s official complaints process. If your complaint isn’t sorted out in 8 weeks, or you get a final response letter, you can take your case to the Financial Ombudsman.
That’s fantastic, thanks so much for your help! Really appreciate it.
No worries, hope he gets his money back. It's a horrible feeling to be scammed (happened to me with a PS3 I bought from USA).
Yeah I feel really gutted for him, wish he came to me before he ordered it as I would have advised him against it. Sucks that people are taking advantage of people.
For those of you still on the lookout, according to this website, there's going to be a big batch of stock coming 2nd of February and "early February" https://www.whathifi.com/news/ps5-r...me-tipped-for-new-wave-of-ps5-stock-this-week
Makes sense as it's been up for preorder today on game, delivery for around the 5th.
JOhn Lewis dropped today then got rinsed by bots instantly

I got mine a few days back, you’ll love it, the 3D sound is fantastic.
I can’t help but think the sound on the whole for the PS5 is excellent. Films and Spotify through my under tv speaker sounds brill.
Game had a big drop too. Gone ASAP.
What's the end game here for these scalpers/bots? Eventually there will be plenty of supply and they'll be stuck with tons of PS5s?
Ok, so for anyone who has registered their interest on SimplyGames, I just had an email this second to say that they have a bundle in stock now that you can preorder. Gonna have to be quick though.

Just ordered some from shop to as well, happy to wait a month or so for them.
I really hope that’s the case! Scumbags.
Worth waiting for. I don’t have any points of reference as to whether the Pulse is better than any others but I can say they sound excellent. Especially the 3D sound. COD sounded amazing and the distance and direction of explosions was very clear.
This just got me super excited now
I've put off buying some games just because I had been using a headset I got maybe 6 years ago and the audio only works when the cable is in a particular position.
Class! I’m looking forward to this! Hopefully get mine in a month or so.
I use cheap turtle bay ones so I think I’m gonna love these bad boys.
We’ve all been there!
