Anyone get any shipping notification from GS drop yesterday?

Bit frustrating still no dispatch email from GameStop. Seems that most people have received theirs so just a matter of time I suppose.

Just got my shipping email for the disc edition ordered last Thursday from Gamestop, it's due to be delivered on Friday.

Got my tracking email from GS around 7.30pm last night due to be delivered tomorrow end of day

Just got shipping confirmation from Gamestop. Another straggler from last weeks batch.

Got the tracking number finally, hopefully it won't arrive tomorrow as it's my one day in the office.

Yep, it did! It arrived around 11 this morning, they didn't mess around once it shipped.

Question about Smyths. If I had card declined and updated my card, I still didn't get funds drawn or any type of email confirming payment or cancellation. Do you think I lost the PS5 now?

So, tracking updated this morning to say it was due for delivery Monday. Happy days, I'm at home for that.
Courier rings me around 2 ish and says he's outside.. While I'm in the office.
Thankfully one of the neighbours took it off him and left it outside the apartment door instead of leaving it outside.

Still, I have one, so I can unfollow all the PS5 alert stuff now.

How quickly did you update your card?
I think they give you 24hrs, if you don't update in that time, I'd say it's gone.

Get onto Smyths first thing to see if there is anything they can do.

If it was today, you should be fine.
Happened to someone else on one of these threads and all was good.

Great thanks, do you know when they got charged though? I was driving today but nothing happened. It's been over 30 hours since the email

Can't remember.
Get onto them by lunchtime tomorrow if you're not charged.

I've used twitter with them and they were quick to respond.

Interested in how you got on?

I see CEX has dropped its buying price form 700/650/595 now so hopefully less people will be inclined to go that route

It's actually €595 boxed, €585 unboxed and €575 discounted for the disc edition.

The digital edition selling price is less than full retail and goes to show already that the digital edition will be something of a lame duck version.

Got my name on the list in currys this morning thankfully.

hopefully people start selling digi once the disc version normalises, nabbing one cheaper than retail will be excellent

Gamestop order from last Tuesday arrived this morning. Nice nondescript brown box with "fragile"-worded tape sealing it all up.

Mine arrived this evening. Thank goodness, no more pre-purchase stress. Now the post-purchase stress begins!!!

Ordered PS5 from Currys Mahon on Monday. Just got confirmation it'll be in on Sunday for collection.

Money just taken for this morning's Smyth's preorder.

Markitron

I ordered it yesterday from Smyths and haven't heard anything yet.

Edit: They just took payment

Payment taken for me too. I wonder when we get them? I'm based in Dublin.
