Possibly, last playstation I bought was the ps2 so I'm out of the loop

Even forgetting size restrictions, surely a northern address is going to be our quickest option?

"If your parcel does not fit in the Parcel Motel locker, we’ll notify you and make alternative arrangements"

I'm definitely going this route , saves getting it shipped from mainland UK and the worry they're not there to take the delivery as its 2 months away anything could change.

Yeh didn't think of them not being in.
Waiting for it from PM will add a day or 2 to delivery.
Usually I get a delivery notification to the North, depending on the time it will be in Dublin same day but could be next day.
Then usually another day again before it hits my locker or depot. So could be the Saturday.

I'm okay with a couple days delay to be honest, just bought into the hype and don't want to wait until after christmas!

Hi guys have received info of a uk site going live in next few days for PS5 pre orders but site does not deliver to Ireland. Would appreciate help/procedure as to how to order delivery to Ireland without an English address.

I'm usually impatient and want things ASAP but you're right, some people won't have them at all so what's a day or two. Still not impressed with Amazon not shipping directly, I buy a lot of stuff from them.

Lads DPD Parcel Wizard will deliver it to a pick up point or to your door for 3.85. Works the same as Parcel Wizard but it's far more flexible IMHO.

My pick up point is behind the counter in a petrol station so I don't think they have the same size restrictions... But since WFH started I get everything straight to my door for the same price.

Just sign up here and choose locker closest to you.

The below should be total sh!te, just saw it commented on one of the ads on adverts trying to fleece people.

"I also said this yesterday on other ads smyths will have non preorder units to sell on the day and also the way there system works there due stock In on the 19th if you go on there website at midnight on the 18th you can preorder for the next day to click and collect.

I've done this many times with consoles. ive a family member who has been a manager there for over ten years who originally told me about it and ive done it a couple of times on sold out orders of console's but keep in mind it will be limited.
So you will need to be online at midnight on there site or if you dont pre order for pick up you need to be there first thing for the store opening."

You'd imagine a family member working in Smyths could grab him one though.

Also when an English site looks for a post code is it the parcel motel post code in Ireland or UK pick up point. Have tried to order a few things in past but gave up after the hassle of it

If they won't deliver to Ireland and you're getting stuff delivered to Parcel Motel you always use the Parcel Motel address.

So the following is Parcel Motel Northern address

Your Name
Your PMID
1A McKinney Road
Newtownabbey
Co Antrim
BT36 4PE

I usually have my name in the forename field and my surname plus the PMID in the surname field.

Your PMID is a code given by Parcel Motel upon registration, it is unique to you and its how they know to route the package to you.

So a UK item, you enter your own name and address as usual in the billing address fields but for shipping you enter the Parcel Motel address above not forgetting to include your PMID.
Package gets delivered to Parcel Motel in the North and they then deliver it to your local Parcel Motel locker location, then you collect it.

I wonder how these compare to some of Sony's 1st party PS4 titles.

Thats the thing the delivery address cant be changed. I'm wondering will An Post deliver anyway and charge me the 25 as the an post site says for oversize deliveries.

Had this problem too and glad I read it here as didn’t cop the dimensions thing. First Amazon rep wouldn’t let me change it for security reasons but just got back on now, explained the problem that it would be returned and it’s my sons Christmas present and can I change to parcel motel address which is on my account and they changed it then no issue... so glad I saw this here as that would have been a disaster!

This will be stated time and time again on this thread...

USE "PARCEL WIZARD" for delivery. It is far less restrictive for package dimensions than pm.

It is a far superior service than parcel motel.

Can someone confirm that if you make a new address in amazon, that you can move the existing order over somehow?

I was in such a rush at the time I forgot to include the PM code in the address.

So I make a new address with the PM code... and then what? I can only see how to cancel the order not change the address.

Are you creating a new address. Try adding it to your amazon account before trying to change the order.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/a/addresses?ref_=ya_d_c_addr

New address was created before trying to change it. Amazon CS couldn't change it either.

So my question still stands. Will Addresspal through An Post still deliver the oversized box and just charge me the 25 does anybody know or will it be sent back to Amazon?

From reading the address pal thread in the couriers section, they will reject and return it. When I asked Amazon if that happens will they contact me to try new address then they allowed me to change it.

So would suggest don’t take the chance and try change it to one of the other companies

You can 100% change the delivery address on Amazon. I literally just changed my PS5 order to test it for ya'll. I switched it to my AddressPal UK address and then I switched it right back to my ParcelMotel NI address.

(You can't switch it to a ROI address though)

How? Do you have to use a PC or something? Couldn't do it on my phone browser or the app.

Apologies if this has been asked and answered before. Will the external hard drive that I have for my ps4 work on the ps5?

Any idea what the liability cover is for PW? I know for PM you can pay to up it to 500 for 14 days is it similar with PW?

Can't imagine why it wouldnt? Probably will need to be formatted again though so you might lose everything on it if I was to guess

Thanks it won't change though no matter what I try.

Add the Parcel motel or wizard address first to your overall addresses and then contact them via chat again. I explained it was a present, was really worried etc, can’t cancel and order again and I used the PM address in the past and 2nd time round they changed it for me.

Only problem was it seems to have moved delivery date by a day now. But not end of the world.

Fashionworld, seriously? Is there a shop which is not selling PS5?

How Soon Is Now

Will probably hold off until the week before release to sell my ps4 pro. The setup is still the same as before with just logging into your PlayStation account on the new machine and your good to go right?

Haven't seen too much mentioned about the UI and how everything will move over to new machine yet.

Aye. I am wondering this stuff myself.

I moved PT to an external drive yesterday. I hope it will be there to play on my PS account as if it was on PS4. It should be the same in theory.

Hopefully, it's a simple setup. I still have few games I want to finish so be nice to just carry them over from my library.

Just off chat with them and they cant change the delivery address due to date issues.

Here's hoping.

I might trade my GOW Pro with extra pad into CEX this week. I can get €304 cash. I think it's too good to give up at that. I'm not really playing anything at the moment and anything I'm interested in can wait :P
