    Missed a couple of drops over the last few weeks. How are people being made aware of the likes of Curry’s and DID making these drops? I’m not seeing any sort of stock notifications etc. Someone else commented a page or two ago about Smyths making a drop some time this week. I’d say it’s a fairly safe bet they will but just intrigued where everyone gets the info.

    Anyway with that said, anyone any information on further drops?

    What’s the most recent time anyone has received an email from GameStop today? The latest I’ve heard of anyone getting good news is this morning so I feel like if they havent emailed anyone since that it’s best to expect a bad-news email tomorrow or Thursday...

    Yeah mine was changed to that too but I’m told it’s just a placeholder date and means nothing...apparently! As far as I know I thought everyone’s had changed to that anyway but it could be worth checking if anyone who got an email didn’t have it changed?

    Hi everyone.

    A girlfriend of a PS5 searcher/fanatic/worshipper here. He has a big birthday coming up in March and I'm wondering what chance have I got of securing one as a surprise? I have read through this thread all evening and downloaded the stock app. Any advice for someone who feels very much out of her depth?

    Follow this thread. I picked one up in DID after getting a tip here.

    Hopefully Smyths and Harvey Norman will be released soon.

    Don't feel out of your depth, it's more about luck than actually knowing anything.
    Best thing to do is check this thread in the morning around 9-10 and then 9-10 in the evening. Most retailers seem to drop stock in the morning and Smyths seems to do it at night (just going by what happened previously)
    I'm not sure what the stock will be like in March, hopefully better than what it is now... There could be more stock coming in the next few weeks but then again I thought that January would've had a lot more stock than there ended up being.
    I got lucky by seeing a post yesterday saying that DID had stock and rang them straight away and got one so just keep an eye out.
    Good luck

    Make sure to have created an account with all the shops(Smyths and Harvey Norman seem to be whats left to add stock) and add ur card details. This will help save time going threw checkout. Smyths won't add your card till you have made your first purchase,so maybe order a game he myt like for the ps5,or buy something really cheap,and ur card details will save then and all you'll have to input next time is the 3 numbers at the back of the card.I wish you luck

    You can bud, the 20th September in one of Gamestop’s main branches. Got the email this morning. GameStop get allocated stock according to its branch rating. That’s more then likely why we see more stock going to Dublin.

    For March, they’ve been up this whole time, bad trust pilot reviews, there is no way they can fulfil all the orders people are getting off them, for anyone’s sake wait
    to get one from a credible site

    I had a PS5 but sold it to Cex a few weeks later and made 200 euro profit. The only reason I wanted it was for Demon Souls which I completed . Now with Re5 coming soon I have my regrets even though that will be coming to the PS4 as well id still rather play it on the ps5. Im not in a hurry to get the ps5 again but where is the best bet for putting a deposit on one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 52 ✭✭iamrnjn


    For all those who ordered PS5 from DID via phone, did anyone actually get the console ? Or have they provided a date for collection ?

    No haven't heard anything other than what they said when I ordered, which was Thursday or Friday. My friend got his online order today though and that was delivered, not click and collect so you'd imagine its there tomorrow is a good bet, if not today.
