I really hope GS use someone other then An Post to ship the console, or start shipping tomorrow. Demon Souls shipped Tuesday, no updates on the An Post tracker.

Ordered the docking station off Smyths yesterday, delivered today by DPD.

I've had games ship from GS and they've arrived within two days. An Post are swamped and slow to update their tracking.

Same, actually nearly always next day delivery for me once I get the shipping mail from GS. Got Resi 3 Remake a week early when that came out!

Just hope they heard the feedback from the xbox crowd and ship a good bit earlier if it is An Post, or try a different courier.

Anyone think there's a chance of picking up the pulse 3d headset between now and Xmas?

Might be better from gamestop with the ps5 as they can post it on Monday/Tuesday and get it Thursday. Problem they had with xbox I say most were not sent out till the Monday the day before launch so delay there so if they sent it on Monday/Tuesday we should hopefully get it on launch day or 1 day later the most.

Just ordered a second dual sense from Amazon and they are using their own new Amazon Ireland couriers so delivery is tomorrow.

Really hope they ship the ps5 the same way.

So given the limited space, and I'm nearly out of space on my 2tb ps4 Pro. I'd be better off to install my ps4 games on an external drive and then keep the internal space for my ps5 games?

Yes.

They only started offering one day delivery on my prime account yesterday so it must be a new roll out in Ireland and my area is covered.

FYI if anyone received a 25% code off PlayStation a few weeks back, it's valid until tonight and can be used on PS5 games now that they've been officially released. Picked up Miles Morales Ultimate Edition and Demon Souls for 60 each.

Yea I ordered a blu-ray on Tuesday afternoon and it arrived the next morning, I was ****ing shocked. FWIW I tried changing my delivery from PM to my house but it wouldn't let me.

Argos have their special offer with Spiderman of a UHD Blu Ray for €6 (Into the Spiderverse). However, the game itself, for Ultimate Edition, is €85

Amazon.co.uk have a pretty good offer, i've snapped it up there. The Ultimate Edition, along with a 3 disc UHD, for £95.78. So you get Spiderman Far From Home, Homecoming & Into The Spiderverse in a 6 disc box set (3 X UHD discs and 3 normal Blu Ray Versions)

If it was me I'd just use the internal storage for the moment. There's reports of some consoles having issues after plugging in external drives.

Anyone hear any word from Gamestop about the in store collections considering it's a week away now. I got the text end of October saying I'm in the launch day allocation. Then start of this month I got a text saying my store will contact me with the rest of the fulfilment but I've heard nothing since. I pre-ordered in store and also my store is currently open for click and collect, tried ringing them past week but no answer, just so confused??

Never used that crowd, but the payment could just be pending and will be reversed in a few days when they notice it wasn't completed.

Bollox, means I can't use it anywhere else until then as it was the full amount on the gift card.

I tried Eneba but it threw on 2 extra charges by the time I got to checkout adding 7 euro in total, bollox acting.

I'd ordered Miles Morales off Amazon and got the notification on the app that it would be delivered by today, but on the Amazon app/site it still hasn't updated to "Out for Delivery". We've a little post box outside where the postman would put in letters and small packages, and sure enough when I just checked there now, the game was in there! Found that a bit odd as Amazon are usually on the ball when updating for deliveries.

The disk wasn't even in the case properly, could hear it rattling around inside, thankfully no scratches!

I never quite understand how Amazon figure out their postage times. Like, I orderred the same game today. I had the option of free postage, with delivery at the end of the month (), or i could pay for postage, with a similar time frame, or indeed, i could order faster postage for another 8 or 9 euros (but the date was still far away, like 23rd November or something).

So, i noted they are offering unlimited 2 day delivery to Ireland now with a Prime Sub. Signed up to the free trial, put in my order - and the delivery date is 19th November. So a full 7 days! What happened to the 2 day delivery? Jaysus...

$50. Said starts at 41.31 or something, added to basket, went to 44 something, went to checkout, went to 46.70 and I just had 46.60 on my visa card so extra sickened. Much cheaper with Instant-Gaming, 41.09 euro but they told me the bank cancelled the payment and put a hold on the money, I should get it back in hours/days. No idea why they stopped it and it's some bank in america with just an automated voice support, absolute bollox.

Gonna wait (hope) the money goes back on and just pick up Miles Morales in Argos as I know they take the card. Will use my own Irish cc to get credit then for Demons Souls in the US. Hate all this fecking around but it's 20 quid cheaper on the US store.

44 euro is what I get when I go on there now. There's
a service charge or 2 euro or so that's all I got charged.
