Not following - Does the order dissapear when its dispatched?!!!

No, it should show under orders. So looks like you didnt have an order at all or it just randomly disappeared. I think everyone with a confirmed preorders has been charged by now.

Wish I had known that CEX were offering you 140€ profit on a PS5 before cancelled my preorder as that would be the easiest made money ever. I considered touting it on Adverts but didn't want to be that guy, but no guilt with a retail store like Cex.

if I manage to order from Amazon.co.uk tomorrow, how long will it take to get to me? should i expect a long wait?

HEART STOPS - I just logged onto my Gamestop Account and this....???!!!!!



Before...

Possible you didn’t order it while logged in? That’s the case for my order which is kind of annoying.

Ive always gotten my consoles at launch off Gamestop, never had any hassle, I dont know why but this time I decided to hold off on them and so glad I did, they have made an absolute mess of it... I mean taking €50 deposits so people could join a queue... madness... and now their lack of communication and it being release day tomorrow, people still not knowing where they stand its ridiculous

I really hope everyone that got a PO from them gets their consoles tomorrow

I will be dealing with Smyths from now on for my consoles and games, I was going there for my games anyway cos they are mostly always cheaper, they have been brilliant to deal with and have done everything right with this launch

Did you order one or two? They were cancelling orders for people with more than one order.

See above - Only one ordered, I wasn't logged in so I see it now - but I seem to be at the end of the Q. Order is Confirmed, funds in PayPal, Credit Card in the green not no movement on order...?!!

Now let's see if I can do with this what I always say I'll do any time I buy a console.

"I will play every game I buy and won't have a backlog!"

With the PS+ Collection and console v games staggered release dates, I've already got a backlog before even getting the machine.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one at the party left without a chair

Fingers crossed!

EDIT - Have they taken payment as yet from you?

UPS delivery from Smyths in in transit. Just in case there are people worried. Was in transit 5 hours ago but only updated now.

I'm still on 'label created'. I assume yours is switched to 'shipped'?

I don't mind queuing for a few mins but I just know there'll be a couple awkward feckers in front

"Sir, would you like a bag for a few cent more?"
"Do I want a bag, now that IS a good question?, I mean I've come alll this way, you're working through a Pandemic and I can see why the bag might help. I've spent enough as well, is a few cent worth it?"

*smacks him on the head

"Thank you for the PS5, but whilst I'm here any chance you have any XYZ behind there?"
"You need to order online, this is click n collect only"
"I know but seeing as I'm here and all"

*smacks him on the head

"Can I see your ID?"
"Sure, here you go............................"
"Sir, this is a photo of a photo of an ID"
"I asked somebody on boards, they all said no it's a stupid idea but surely it's good enough"

*smacks him on the head

Now seriously, that last one did happen on here. Somebody did ask that stupid question.

IF somebody is in the queue all quiet, not talking to anybody, not cluthing their barcode like the winning euromillions ticket and then gets to the front and says this then I will kick them in the back of the knees

"I'll take a PS5"
"Can I see your order number?"
"Order number, aren't we all here for the PS5, it's launch day after all"
"It's pre orders"
"Pre orders, what is that?"

Fvcking DIE!!!

CastorTroy

Of course there'll be ones in the queue, where they've been waiting at least 5 minutes and get to the front, be asked for their email, have to find their phone, go into the mail and find the mail. Then same with their ID, all because they couldn't get them ready to show while waiting in the queue.
Basically the equivalent of people in a queue seemingly not realising they'll be asked to pay for what they're buying and so never have their purse/wallet ready

From the emails they sent out last week;

Please ensure you bring your ready for collection email and photo identification. If you are unable to collect your Pre-Order, you can have someone else collect on your behalf once they have your permission. In these cases, photo identification of the person who placed the order and the ready for collection email are required.

CastorTroy

So just need to figure out which is easier, mugging someone and stealing their phone and ID or stealing the PS5 after they collect it.

Are Argos doing midnight sales? Anywhere else?
