Amazon has been increasingly funky with Ireland since Brexit with odd items not being shipped that wouldn't breach any restrictions. Could be anything at all.

They've refused to ship some stuff I've wanted (direct off them) and I was then able to buy it off them from their warehouse.

I wonder if the reason that Amazon won't ship the PS5 here is due to the (tiny) lithium battery in the DualSense. I notice they are shipping the media remote and camera to Ireland no problem, but not the DualSense.

If so I believe it's an error on their part, lithium battery shipping restrictions shouldn't apply to batteries sealed inside devices. They're shipping xboxs and PS4s here no bother, for years.

I've no interest in getting it on release, but my son wants it for Christmas.

Would I be best to avoid the absolute maniac situation going on now trying to reserve one, and wait until after release, closer to christmas and then trying to get one?

I'm the same. I popped into gamestop after work yesterday and paid a deposit to get my name on the list.
She said there was no guarantee for one before Christmas. It doesn't really bother me if its before Christmas great if not January if fine.

Disaster, DISASTER lads!!

Preorder is with GS from Feb, so i'm feeling a little confident of getting it on release (19th).

BUT the missus has booked a dirty weekend away the 20th

And it def doesn't look like it'll fit in the travel bag

But won't you have loads of uninterrupted time at home to play PS5 if your Missus is away having a dirty weekend?

......Oh wait a minute, is she bringing you along?

I was too late. Hope Smyths will receive another shipment soon.
Few more scalpers now up on the adverts by the way.

No worries chief. I'll take one for the team. Let her know I'll be going.

If the wife doesn't fit in the travel bag, just leave her at home.

More PlayStation time. Win-win.

Make it a really dirty weekend by focusing on phone sex. She goes and calls you while you stay home.

Then don't answer. It'll just distract you.

Only one of those two things will play Demon's Souls so it's an easy choice. No dilemma.

Didn't want to wait and see when Amazon would charge me so just topped up my account balance and applied it to the order to pay it off now - you get a sweet £7.20 or £9 bonus for doing so depending on if you got digital or disc :pac:

Wouldn't put faith in Littlewoods.
Their prices are above RRP at times, and they cancel orders for no reason.

No, it should be €1.99 delivery.

The delivery charges they list excluded consoles and large items, where the charges vary. Not sure if it's just for preorder but's consoles are free apparently.

Do very deliver to Ireland?

Anyone in the hunt for a PS5 should sign up for a parcel motel account as soon as possible to avoid this issue

Lads I just got a pre order with very.co.uk. Luckily I was already registered and have shopped with them before. It looks like it's gone through....

Managed to snag a home delivery preorder with Smyths the other night.

They mention that free delivery is not available on Consoles, but my order is listed with delivery being free, is this normal?

My Smyths delivery is about 3 euro

I was *so* close to getting this through and it failed at the checkout.

Its letting me put it in basket and register a new account right now if anyone wants to retry....

Decided to leave it for now.... Worried Parcel Motel security is gone to **** after a recent incident.
