Mine left Brussels 5 hours ago. He's having an extended European getaway the wee prick.
 
Don’t think our postal service got it in time. Tracking number still not live so doubt it made the sorting office cut off. Tomorrow it is :(
 
Should have just got one from Asda, they have loads and looks like click and collect or speedy delivery?
 
Very sent me a text a few minutes ago telling me to pre-order the Series S. What the hell? They've not sent me a single text in the past year and then that out of nowhere.
 
I wouldn’t believe what the insider says because this seems like a common occurrence with amazon, when it comes to preorders.

People on resetera saying they got emails on Sunday saying it’s guaranteed for release and today just now saying it’s delayed and will be shipping today for tomorrow delivery. So it depends on your fulfilment centre. So they have the stock, but didn’t bother shipping it because why ship it today on release date?
 
My source is confirming what @Damien posted.

I am talking about UK you muppet. Amazon have delayed people’s console with a day or two and it’s stuck on preparing for dispatch. So that means they have the stock, but they messed up with the distribution.

Ordered two, one from amazon. Got emailed saying it will arrive on release day then it got dispatched at midnight. Now saying it’ll arrive tomorrow. Ridiculous really.
 
My UPS has gone from midday tomorrow to 'end of day' tomorrow. Not a good trend.
 
I can click and collect a series S from Asda, but that's purely due to not expecting to get a PS5 on release. Should probably just wait, but not having a new console is going to be shit
 
Happy Xbox day! Enjoy your new consoles everybody

Awaiting the series S from Amazon its still on for delivery today
 
Fecking John Lewis!! :mad: I was waiting ready for the new stock to become available at 8am and as soon as the clock strikes 8 I refresh and the page crashes instantly. Finally get on a minute or 2 later and click add to basket which all I get is a spinning loading circle but never actually adds it to basket, happened to me about 10 times before eventually loading the page to be greeted with a out of stock message. Thanks for nothing you cnuts!!
 
I had no tracking info at all, but I got in touch with Argos and they told me mine is set to come in a couple of hours! We shall see.
 
Amazon emailed me Sunday to say it will be delivered release day. Just now they’ve emailed saying sorry for the delay, it’ll be dispatched within 24 hours. Order still says delivery by 10pm today, which seems unlikely to me.

My mate, who ordered after me and will be getting it from the same sorting centre, got his dispatched yesterday.

Way to kill my buzz, Amazon
 
I am in Dubai and was told mine would be shipped before 4pm today, phoned up because there was notification it had been sent. Was told they had yet to receive the stock but were expecting it after 5 and I would receive it this evening. I am not confident I will get it today - put it like that. Funny how there were no problems when they were taking my cash.
 
Does anyone have any suggestions for rechargeable battery packs/Play and Go/non AA battery options for the new controllers?

Disgusting. @Alock1 what about you?

Both (Very and Amazon) are in Stoke at a local depot centre but not yet out for delivery. Think I'm okay.

My mates had the same email as Veeva but I seem to have lucked out!
 
I was so worried about availability of this but it seems there are 10 stores within 10 km from me that have it on their shelves. Tempted to go out and buy it. :lol:
 
Walked to my local Game and picked mine up after paying for it last week. Three people there, all way more than 2m socially distanced, didn’t even go in the store, they brought it out to me. Was there possibly 30 seconds. Pretty pleased I did it this way in the end after being quite anxious about picking it up in a pandemic/ lockdown

Well I wish I'd done this. Figured Amazon of all places will get the delivery done right and I'd have it by mid afternoon.

Its sold out everywhere in the UK
Currently upwards of £750 on eBay with most bids on systems in the £900 range...mental.

GAME are usually pretty solid, my local store does midnight releases too. If it wasn’t for lockdown they would have been open last night.

To update, they said this - "I've checked and can see that the carrier has updated us to say that they have your package but there will be a delay delivering it to you as it has arrived at an incorrect carrier facility"

I’ve never had a good experience with Amazon for release day stuff.

@esmufc07 must have been the guy delivering it to the incorrect facility.

Ooof I've had this before numerous times lately.

It either means there's multiple delivery warehouses near you and they've sent it to the wrong one which means it won't be coming today (as they flat out refuse to send it out from there again, it'll likely go back and be rescheduled) or they don't actually know where it has gone.

Fingers firmly crossed your experience will be different mate, it really sucks when this happens.
