    Sorry for the question folks but...

    I have a one for all card to use to buy a ps5. Will there be an option on argos or tesco to use this rather than a normal bank/credit card?

    If it’s a virtual one 4 all you won’t be able to use it as max amount on a one 4 all is €150 (I think) and online websites don’t accept 2 forms of payment

    Max amount on a one 4 all is €500 (I think), but it's irrelevant because new money laundering laws mean that you can only use a maximum of €50 in a single online transaction.

    It's a physical card with €500 on it.

    But with that new law, it's basically useless for trying to get a ps5 online?

    I got a €500 one for all at Christmas but its a chip and pin card with a pin and verified with my ID. Assume this would work, its basically like a Revolut.

    Argos are closed until end of the month in ROI and have never had a pre-order system. Smyths would be a better bet.

    Argos naas was open today.

    Tesco let me lump 90€ off mine in all 4 one vouchers. It was in store though if that helps

    Did you do click and collect and then pay in store? How did you book it online without paying?

    Yeah I was the same basically you can only spend it online 50 euro at I time. Best bet would be argos click and collect and pay in store if they are open at that stage


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,261 ✭✭✭mightybashful

    I think you'll have to click & collect if possible and pay in store.
    They rang me after my order was cancelled and I paid at the CS desk

    Hopefully it's an option to reserve and pay in the shop

    While I agree mostly. There is no stock update to speak of so I figured I'd get an answer quicker in here than any other thread, seems I was right and hopefully helped others in my situation.

    Im hoping I'll wake up in the morning to this thread full of actual updates.

    A few appeared on Amazon DE early this morning.

    Gone in seconds.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭Captain Flaps


    Good sign that stock is trickling into Europe all the same

    I called into Galway Argos this morning and they said it'll be March/April before they get anything

    This is surely the worst console launch ever. Sony embarrassing themselves and it's depressing.

    Series Xs are still popping up regularly too.

    I can't believe I've been looking for one none stop since launch and it doesn't look good for the next few weeks either.

    I thought argos were closed, or is it they are open but only for delivery?

    Argos did close but opened from yesterday for essential click n collect only

    Or the best? Considering they have sold every one.

    And I doubt its only a few thousand either.

    What's the deal there? How did X Box plan for this better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭Captain Flaps


    There's just less demand for the xbox globally.

    Sony sold like 10 to 1 compared to the XSX that's why you can still get an Xbox. Sony are No. 1 and in huge demand. Every console launch is like this. PS4 was no different.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,592 ✭✭✭The White Wolf


    So not necessarily embarrassing themselves!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,416 ✭✭✭micks_address


    Still doesn't make sense that they basically have no stock from mid December to march. Unless they stopped manufacturing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,430 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    I had one in my basket from Littlewoods but decided not to buy it as they were forcing you to buy a second controller with it (for €80 which is the most expensive I've seen them anywhere), I figured I'd pick one up after Christmas easily enough if I was on the ball. Derp.

    Do you have any back up to that claim? Very interesting if true.

    A quick Google says PS5 sold 3.3 million to xbox series x/s 1.8 million. That was dated to December 21st.

    So quite a bit a way from the claimed 10 to 1.

    Thought that's was a bit of a fanciful claim.

    Its open for click and collect. I was passing it today while at work and I'd said I'd chance calling in and asking.
