Until you get to the place order screen and the place order button is greyed out and won't go green no matter what you enter!!

Hmm I see, I didn't click through, store collect was gone but home delivery still showing but I guess by the time you click through everybody else was ahead of you. It would have been far too late to get through all the other screens especially with the 502 errors.

You didn't get sorted so?

mr c

I just got a message from somebody here, a noob on their own Laptop:

Yes I appreciate that you might have an FN key, somebody got annoyed because their Laptop was just dimming the screen

Check your email to see if you got the confirmation

I wouldn't mind but I have an Xbox Series X pre-ordered as well, but the young fella only wants to play the remaster of Demons Souls!

If the 'place order' button is greyed out - refresh

If it's green, then you click, but nothing happens for a few seconds - refresh

If you click it, then something happens, you should be good to go.

It took around 60 seconds of loading to get from clicking the button, to the order confirmed screen

Smyths seem to have taken a authorization payment yet I haven't been able to check out successfully, stuck on grey n no confirmation email. Anybody else? Any ideas?

Did you get the auth payment from revolut? I got mine and then the confirmation email within 5 mins.. Go to the smyths homepage in a new tab and see if its in your basket still. If not, go to to your Orders page and see.

Now out stock.. damn it. Will stick with my ps4 these preorders are so messed up

I remember years ago ordering the Wii. Was perfect timing because I was able to bring it to a family gathering just before Christmas so had good laugh as nobody had it.

Anyway, while I was collecting it on launch day two people came in: One guy goes: "Yeah, Yez got any o' those WHY yolks?" "No sir, sorry. Not until January probably""Sh*te. Ah, fair 'nuff"

Then the other: "Yah, I'll take two of those Nintendo Wii consoles" "Have you pre-ordered?".... "No, I can pay on my card, I don't need to pay over months" "Sorry, sold out. If you put your name down now we may have some in January" Queue "But Timothy wants one and I also need one for my sister"And "Get your manager" sh*t.

Are they sold out on all stores?

At this stage, it has just become a personal battle.

Had one in my basket for at least half an hour. Have been kicked back to choosing collection or delivery a couple of times after F5'ing. At one stage it took me back to that screen and it said it's out of stock, but with further F5'ing it's letting me try again.

I just want to see which way this plays out. I have all day (sort of).

Nope. Got the Place Order button to go green but now getting a message saying it is out of stock. Crazy to be one of the first in, and not get a pre-order.

Same here

Got my order through eventually on the phone. If your at the card details page and putting in ccv and the place order goes from green to grey when you press it just refresh and keep trying.

Johner

Finally got one. Just had to keep refreshing until it went green. Then it crashed on the final page but when I refreshed I got confirmation and an email then.

I got lucky then as I was also likely one of the early batch in, checking since before 11am. Came back to the office and saw people on here say "GOGOGOGO". I got to the confirm order screen 5 times before I could get it to go green and submit the order. I was lucky then.

Head over to Smyths Twitter, the sh*t show has begun.

TheIrishGrover

I see their twitter post mentions out of stock for some people but keep at it for a while longer. You never know when they joined the queue
