    I finally got through to Limerick and they confirmed it's sitting there waiting for my right now to collect so I can go right now for it.

    OK, that's great. That news should hopefully reassure those with reservation numbers for collections today who may have been spooked.

    I am paranoid now. I just chatted to my gf in full about her encounter in Argos and as stated above, She was told they do not have stock today but that i should receive a text tomorrow to collect and that there should be no issues once i have the reservation number .

    However, She wrote the reservation number down on a piece of paper when checking the sytem. What's to stop her from bagging this for herself now?

    Not a lot. You haven’t paid for it yet. Just hope

    This is always Argos policy.

    I have a friend searching the country looking for one for her son, popping on here to give her updates, limerick area but will travel. Have dissuaded her from spending mad money on ebay, for the moment anyway!


  • Registered Users Posts: 331 ✭✭Kildare787


    Have had absolutely no luck. Can't get my hands on one. Been trying for weeks. Hopefully more get released somewhere. If anyone hears of any codes knocking about please do let me know. I'll travel anywhere to get this for nephew.

    I hope nobody buys one on eBay, prepare to be fleeced and potentially even end up with just an empty PS5 box.

    Hi everybody,

    Great thread, thanks for posting all your info here. I like many others have been trying hard to get a PS5 but no luck yet. I see some people here have managed to secure more than one console/preorder. I am Galway based but willing to travel anywhere in the country. If anyone has a spare reservation for disc or digital console or would sell a spare console to me you would make me very happy.

    Please let me know :)

    Thank you!

    GAME UK have a queue system for bundles. No mention of delivery date though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 439 ✭✭zep


    So many first time posters coming here looking for codes.
    The thread is about stock, not a begging zone

    Partially my fault. Sorry folks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 480 ✭✭baalad


    To those that haven't got one yet! I cannot promise you will get one before xmas but i honestly believe that ALOT of people have bought these consoles with no interest in keeping them. They simply saw the money they are fetching and bought them to sell on. Yes some people are dumb enough to pay the money but alot of people wont pay double the price and there will be sellers that get stuck with them and will likely have no choice but to let them go for cost sooner or later.

    Not everyone will get one for xmas but i wouldnt give up hope. I think there will be alot of them for sale in the coming weeks privately and if everyone holds out and refuses to pay what some of these people are asking for, they may have no choice but to let them go cheaper in order to get their money back before xmas!

    Sure a scalper could come in and write whatever they want

    That's no bother, it's great for you to offer to help out.
    But people just dropping on 1st post is to ask for a code is annoying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 439 ✭✭zep

    Yeah, they have no problem making us a sob story looking for a code :mad:


  • Registered Users Posts: 331 ✭✭Kildare787


    Rang Curry's customer service. Their information is mid December they might be getting some in. She said she has heard absolutely nothing about tomorrow at 11. But sure don't know who to believe at this stage.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,645 ✭✭✭RocketRaccoon


    The amount of fake sob stories in here is absolutely hilarious, have a look at the post history of some of these people haha.

    I have a PS5 disc in my basket with GAME UK. Delivery the 24th but add a few days for address pal It's a bundle and it's £660 which is a bit too pricey


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 284 ✭✭loughrey


    Lots of people are messaging me begging me to give it to them for their kids. I only have the one for my family so have no extras

    Was onto a friend who works in curry’s and said he asked his manager and didn’t know anything about the restock tomorrow morning!

    The raffles annoy me even more than the scalpers. I see a raffle live from just after the smyths stock last night for 2 x digital ps5s. 5000 euro total when all tickets are sold. Scumbags.

    It seems like a strange move to have store purchase only as it is encouraging people to go to a store to wait. The demand is so high it would definitely cause a queue and could lead to some negative media coverage. HN system yesterday seemed to work well, you'd wonder why other retailers haven't adopted this method

    Hi, has anyone here who is due to collect a PS5 from argos (5th -7th Dec) actually receive a text to say item in stock for collection?*

    Local staff mentioned it should come today but random times.....

    Cheers

    *should mention, those who have a reservation code in the email.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 750 ✭✭✭Messi19


    It beggars belief the amount of begging going on. If you do happen to have an extra then give it to someone you know (that may need one for xmas).

    Don't give it to some random off the internet armed with a sob story

    Common sense

    Okay grand, hope you get it. I assume if no text by end of today, might be worth passing by the store to check Sat Morning...
