    An post says my item has been delivered but is still sitting in the depot in ballymount as well :confused:

    Just saw An Post van delivering parcels,there is no ordinary post but they might have put on extra vans to clear the PS4 backlog,maybe the driver scanned it before he left the depot and its on its way today.

    Amazon order still preparing for dispatch. :(

    <MOD Snip>

    Fair play for asking a reasonable price,some of the other ads with similar bundles are €1000+.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,242 ✭✭✭liliq


    I kept get emails from amazon saying they were having problems processing my card. They were going to cancel my order! 😮
    Finally got on to them today after a few email attempts and supposedly it's sorted now, and is preparing to dispatch or whatever the line is. Estimated delivery date on the account is 15th, despite an email the other day saying the expected delivery date would be 10/11th.
    We'll see! Just hope it arrives!

    Very odd! I've picked mine up from Gamestop and I got a phone call saying they had it there for me and I said no, picked mine up and he was insisting it was still there and they'd hold it until Monday. If you've preordered from GameStop get onto them as there was an opportunity there that some people would take. Was offered 800 for mine in car park!

    Good advice,i rang them on Friday and the girl said there was 2 bundles and i could have one,if i didn't ring i probably would be still waiting.

    For those who have ordered with Gamestop Donaghamede,they are getting in the 2nd batch of Ps4's and should be available next Friday/Sat. Also if you just ordered the Ps4 there, well you will have to buy a bundle because that's apparently all they are getting in. Killzone or Knack.

    Bundles are decent value though,€440 for Killzone ,even if you didn't want the game you could get at least €40 for it easy or a swap.Not so sure about Knack though.

    I'm seriously debating giving it to my husband whenever it arrives, even though its his Christmas present. He has a week off work, and the kiddo & myself will be out of the house for hours at a time...?
    No games purchased though :/

    People who got their ps4 delivered by parcel motel how long did it take them to update that they had your package? My killzone bundle was delivered at 10am to there offices in antrim but on my account it says no packages have been checked in yet.

    But she didn't buy him any games

    Second best?! ;) haha!
    Shur I have it in good authority (right?!) that he can get stuff from the ps store...

    Ok, so where's my best bet for games? From the sounds of I think he'd like knack. Have instructed others (his mammy! :-p ) to get Killzone/ Assassins Creed for him.

    I had to change delivery address to my own mam's house so I can decide whether to give it this week or surprise him for Christmas if it arrives soon!
    How long after dispatch yesterday should it arrive from amazon? I'm guessing tomorrow would be early?

    It doesn't show up on your account for up to 7 hours after it's been delivered.

    You could be waiting for up to a week until they deliver it
    There's plenty of people over in the parcel motel thread that are waiting ages for things to be delivered, my self included
    I've a laptop charger that was delivered to them last week and it hasn't moved since

    OK thanks just paranoid about it as its not mine. It was an extra pre order I had and I have sold it to a family friend, face value of course. First time using parcel motel and not sure in see any benefits other than no Irish VAT added onto price.

    As bad as that is its not the worst thing. Its a present for someone else for Christmas so as long as it gets to me by Christmas that's fine I just don't want it to end up "Lost". Although if its gonna take that long for my first experience with PM i probably wont use it again.

    I have had stuff delivered from Amazon in the last week that took maybe 3/4 days from me buying to recieving. The thing i found with PM is that if the PM number isnt included in the address they leave it lying around for a few days trying to figure out who its for. I usually give PM a ring if its taking to long, they prob have a few customers with the same name and dont know which one its for if the PM number isnt on the address

    Did you use PM with your amazon orders ? I usually get items from amazon very quickly I just thought to use PM to get the free delivery and no extra vat added on. I put my PMID as part of my name in my order so hopefully they have it printed out correctly.

    For the posters that are still waiting for their PS4 to arrive from Amazon.

    Were you given an An Post or UPS tracking number?

    The Mega bundle I ordered from Amazon was dispatched today and I was given a UPS tracking number.

    Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 783 ✭✭✭Saucy McKetchup


    Anyone waiting on a phone all from Smyths? Or anyone been contacted in the last few days? Hearing rumour their second batch is either in or due imminently


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,339 ✭✭✭✭2smiggy


    Well I'm still waiting on mine from Amazon , the tracking number I got for an post is not showing as been valid, probably meaning it has not been processed. I contacted amazon last week, they said I would have it by the 10th at the latest. I'm not hopeful. Getting a bit annoyed, they were quick enough to take the money from my card.
