Argos - PS 4 Reductions some 50% [No code requests or swaps!]

Most of the bargains here are from HUK. Many people had got this as they were awake at midnight...people who left out could have got consoles from Amazon/Argos.....

But prices of PS4 would plummet in coming months ! Keep watching

Prices will not plummet, once the remaining old phat ps4 stock has been sold it will be replaced by the new slim console at 299 and this will stay at 299 for a very long time.

I was offered a spare reservation code for Argos. I was gutted when I went to collect it and there wasn't enough cash.

Game had sent the cancellation email and after that they took the money out.

I passed the reservation on to a lady who was behind me in the que. She was delighted. I got in touch with game and was told it will take at least 10 days to get it back .

So looks like I've been done over by game twice!!

Hard luck man but fair play to you for passing it on. Probably made some kids Christmas !!

The money wouldn't have actually been taken by Game, just on hold with the bank. It's a total pain in the ass when it happens though, you end up without the money for a few days.

Not so sure about that,littlewoods took the money from my account and also cancelled the order.When I checked online banking they had removed the money which stopped me from purchasing elsewhere.So frustrating that they continue to take orders and people's money when they had no intention of fulfilling the order.Never ordering online again through these companies.

Latest email from game.

I'm new to all this, is that normal or a bargain? I'm guessing normal? Would Argos and smyths be a good indicator of current prices for consoles? Thanks

€300 is the probably the going rate, you could stall for a while usually they add specials that would include an extra game or 2

Someone is selling the bundle for 300!

Made an offer of €200 I'm sure it will be declined but it's worth a try. I don't agree with profiteering but really wanted this for Xmas so worth a try.

He was selling it for 390€ before http://www.adverts.ie/search/user-1681129/status_withdrawn/type_all

They changed the offer, its only console and fifa for 350, extra controller no longer included.

However Argos still have all Three for 350

At these prices are you not better waiting for the pro version next month?
