Gaming PlayStation 5

Don't worry I will cancel one haha.

Just chuffed you got one :)

Argos actually ran out of systems at about 5, but got more stock out pretty quickly.

They also have the dock, headset and remote which are all sold out on amazon, or atleast they did last time I looked
 
I've now got 3 Ps5 payments pending in my account and I still feel like I won't get this damn thing. I'm pretty convinced the Argos ones didn't work and will cancel.
 
Went with the disc version in the end, the choice of buying cheaper games alongside 4K blu rays was too much to pass on. Ultimately I like collecting the games anyway.

Tempted to order the new headset, they’ve been saying how good their new 3D sound is and they look pretty good.

Amazingly I bought an extra controller and headset yesterday before I got the console as I knew they go quick too.
 
I'm still waiting a hour later...

Got a notification from the Argos card app and an order number, here's hoping that's enough.
Yeh id feel loads more confident if I had an order number but there's nothing in my recent purchase tab or in my account.
 
Ah were they not? Fair enough. Just liked the idea of a back up !

I think Amazon should be safe. The fact they closed it out after 10 minutes means all their launch allocation has gone. But I’m sure more will pop along the next few weeks as some people will cancel and Sony offer more stock. Ask your local Mike Ashley store, if you want to go to a midnight launch.

28ish hours later I still haven't heard a word from game, thus the Argos order. I will cancel the game order soon.

I do think your going to be ok though, even some of the people who ordered pretty earlier complained of not getting an email.

Yeh hopefully between one of the argos orders and the Scan as backup I should get it sometime close to release which is good enough for me.
 
Its there in my recent orders but when I click on view details I'm getting an error message which was fine 15 mins ago, not paranoid... :nervous:
Okay that pretty much confirms in my mind that I got kicked off at the final stage of the order process so I doubt mine went through despite the payment pending. We will see.
 
I set alarms at varying parts of the night :lol: . Still somehow missed the initial argos drop.


I had an alarm set for 7, not that it would have done me much good. Happened to wake up and check my phone just as the lovely @Bojan11 posted about a way to order before they even hit the front page of the site. I was delighted by this unusual luck, especially after sleeping through the entire Amazon sale.
 
Quite a few people on HUKD thread saying no email or payment was taken.

I do feel sorry for all these customer service staff today.

Yeah they'll get the brunt but what do you expect? Sign up to a mailing list to get news about the console and they've communicated absolutely feck all aside from replying to random folks on Twitter? Then they release the pre-orders at 4am when most of the UK is asleep? Can't fault people for being pissed.

I got the email and its listed as an upcoming transfer on my online banking. Will be gutted if my order gets cancelled at this stage!
 
Well that was a shite start to the day. Looks like little Timmy won't be get that Ps5 he wanted for Christmas.



Timmy is me

Im still certain that Amazon will restock, the email the other night said to keep checking even after it sells out.

Amazon were the only company that bothered to email me, they have top class CS

Yeah, but if the servers are getting hammered I doubt they’d see any order info from their side until servers get back to normal. So they would have to tell customers to wait.

Amazon did well because obviously they own their servers. Their servers were never going down. For some reason they just decided to troll us with dodgy links.

Agree with you about registered interest. What was the point of that? Didn’t get one single email and I registered from 10 places. If that had actually worked they should have emailed everyone who registered a unique link and whoever ordered fastest gets it first.
 
First console I won’t be having on launch since the ps1. Hardly surprising with my luck this year. :rolleyes:

I wouldn't write it off yet, preorders have only been live for 24ish hours. It doesn't launch for 2 months, stores will restock
 
There's still nothing on the Ireland site. This is getting stupid. I'm going to try again at 8.
 
You tried your local GAME?
Yeah I nipped in GAME and Smyths yesterday was I was driving around at work and they both said the same, that they were hoping for more stock. Tesco are offering store pick up and would’ve been ideal but it’s wether anyone gets allocated any more stock. I see Covid being to blame.
 
Look....United might be a shitshow, we are signing nobody and will probably end up 5th. But @TrustInJanuzaj has secured now one but two PS5s since midnight.

Our boy did good! Somewhere Adnan is in sobbing with pride. A true underdog story.
 
Thinking of hanging on to my PS4 Pro for now and sell in November. Will they significantly drop in price between now and then?

Yes, because everyone and their dog will be selling one come November. But I would keep it if you want to play on something.

Thought as much. I'll probably keep it until then as it's making lockdown more bearable.
 
Just added everything to my basket on Argos... not available for delivery or collection near me :lol:
 
Argos now has a splash screen showing this when you try to open a PS5 listing

Sorry, PlayStation®5 is currently unavailable.

We're working hard to get more stock.

Register your interest for PlayStation 5


I do believe they will get more stock, but I wouldn't rush to register your interest.
