    Some lad on HUKD just posted this. They seriously robbed his console and have now reported it missing. I'd be down at that depot with a baseball bat if that was me :D

    Unless it's UPS Express it won't be scanned in at their Dublin depot until later this evening based on my dealings with UPS for the past few years. Always some time between 3pm and 7pm when it arrives in Dublin after leaving Tamworth in the middle of the night.

    Hate to see it but it's definitely going to happen plenty over the coming days/weeks.

    Someone on Reddit almost had theirs robbed as Target put the docking label on the outside with ps5 visible and he had to hunt down the driver at targets facility to get it back, absolute joke

    It was FedEx who tried to rob it but yeah, not smart by Target to do that. Read that thread last night before I went to bed. The FedEx guy was 100% attempting to rob it for himself based on the story the OP told :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 945 ✭✭✭Kremin


    Hopefully the queues move fast because it's all paid for and everyone there at 8 is for the console .

    Oh yeah sorry! Still too early

    It's insane that some drivers will get away with it in this day and age when it's scanned at every step of the way

    If I was to order a DualSense for click and collect today, it'd hardly be processed and ready by lunchtime, would it?

    I'm in the same boat with Gamestop. I pre-ordered in June in store. Paid off the balance last Thursday as soon as I got their mail. Money was only taken Tuesday night/Wednesday morning and no sign of a dispatch mail yet.

    I was told I was in the 50's for people who ordered, so very likely is get a console on release.

    If I get it tomorrow I'll be happy enough, but I will be feckin' raging if it's later than that...

    Genuinely nervous now that they don’t even have enough consoles for the people they confirmed for launch release.

    My Pulse headset from Smyths via DPD last week had no update until 8:46am on the morning of delivery after the “travelling through the DPD network scan” the evening before so I’m not worried yet.

    If we get past 9am with no update it’ll be a different story :D

    Sorry, yeah, Smyths. Hmmm now to decide if I really need a spare!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,313 ✭✭✭blaa85


    I managed to get an online order in with gamestop when first released on 16th Sept, confirmed for launch and paid for. No shipping confirmation yet though, hoping to see something early today.

    I hope it's a case that it's already with the courier, and they just haven't updated the accounts yet. I noticed most people receiving tracking numbers with them yesterday advised that it was already scanned by the courier earlier that day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 689 ✭✭✭rm212


    Anyone have any experiences of angry people without preorders being turned away from stores yet or all smooth sailing?

    I read about a lot of aggressive idiots across the pond last week shouting at employees in US stores after queuing without knowing you needed a preorder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 433 ✭✭rafi bomb


    Mine from symths is out for delivery between 8 and 9 for those waiting on smyths

    Should add with dpd


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 709 ✭✭✭goon_magee


    Just had package security scanned in County Down. Only a few miles from my gaff by the sounds of it!

    At Smyths now, about 20 in the queue. They take one at a time. Moves quick enough

    I hope you're right m8. Same here. It's funny how something like this compounds dissapoitment in a company. Fingers crossed..

    It isn't helping seeing all those in Qs waiting on theirs!!

    Enjoy lads... hopefully we'll join you soon with new units.

    Still travelling through the network for me...

    Very painless experience in Smyths. Got there at 7.50 about 30 in queue , opened at 8. Sorted by 8.15.

    I don't know if it's the same all over the country or depends on your local depot/driver, but the update I get on delivery day with my 1hr window always comes in between 8am and 10am looking at my text history. So don't panic if you have nothing at 9!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,455 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin


    Just got the 1 hr window text from dpd, will be delivered between 10 and 11.
