    Hmm, no confirmation email for me yet, just the “boys are having a look out back for you” message. Dont let me down gamestop

    I ordered to collect at the liffey St store. I ordered at 6:03 last night. That shop closes at 6. Just got a mail saying they're out of stock and they've cancelled my order. Utter Dicks.

    I'll see if I can order online from smyths and collect in store at lunch.

    Last year I ordered a headset from them the week before Xmas and paid extra for 2 day delivery to my office. Took three weeks to deliver because the courier they use doesn't deliver to offices over the holidays because the office might be closed.I'm never using them again.

    I got my confirmation email this morning. But I had one reserved in Argos in Naas, just in case. Once I actually have the GameStop one in my hand, your welcome to the Argos reservation code, if it's any good to you

    double the on-board storage is the difference.. and maybe the fifa editions might differ from one bundle to another also

    edit: Titzon beat me to it

    Thanks for the offer but I live in maynooth, work in smithfield and don't drive :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,879 ✭✭✭cletus


    Well, I have the console in my sweaty little paws, and Grayson can't use my Argos code, so if anybody else could make use of it, let me know. If there's more than one, I'll give it to the first response

    RE Order collected emails
    just got through to the store by phone (after 18 attempts)
    ##### DONT PANIC########
    THE STAFF PICKED AND PROCESSED THE ORDER FIRST THIN THIS MORNING BEFORE OPENING THE STORE AS THE ORDER EXPIRES AT CLOSING TIME

    They were helpful and said once it was processes it could be collected after the order expires, and confirmed my complete order is set aside with my name on it.

    mind you i still wont be delaying in picking it up

    It's still showing as available for click and collect in Liffey st. Which meant they have crappy stock controls systems.

    My workmate who sits beside me ordered the same deal, 10 minutes after I did, from the same shop, and he hasn't got any mails yet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,127 ✭✭✭✭Grayson


    Just ordered it from smyths. Took 10 minutes to get a text message saying the order is ready for collection.

    My mate next to me, who ordered at the same time I did last night, still hasn't gotten his confirmation mail from gamestop. That's a really bad show from them.

    Check your phone.
    Same happened to me, but AIB had blocked the transaction.
    Was ok once I replied.
    With black Friday, the banks probably have their automated fraud software on lower thresholds.

    yep but he is comparing PS4 to PS4, not PS4 to PS4 Pro


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,127 ✭✭✭✭Grayson


    Popped down to smyths to pick up my preorder. My friend (the guy who ordered with me last night and still hadn't received confirmation) left me there and walked to liffey st to check on his gamestop order. Just as he got there he got the mail from gamestop cancelling the order. He came back to smyths, joined me in the queue and bought it there.

    Neither of us are going near gamestop again.

    Hi may i ask is Red Dead Redemption 2 game hard copy or digital download. Thanks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 339 ✭✭aidz

    Argos deals very disappointing. They are 229 against gamestop and smyths deals of 199


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,133 ✭✭✭BobMc


    and no paypal option available on some items on Gamestop today

    I have Red Dead on the XB1 so I bought the fifa pro. There was a disk on the box.

    Can anyone tell me what the big deal is about Gamestop for this? Seems like a lot of hassle when you could just get the same deals and more certainty from Smyths or Argos? Do they have a loyalty programme or something?

    No big deal really. It's just that the Gamestop prices got leaked fairly early and they also put their deals live before anyone else.

    Yes I ordered and paid for the PS4 pro 2 days ago at the black Friday price before any of the other stores confirmed pricing
