Would Gamestop be the best trade in option at the moment then? Was planning on hanging on until October but not if price is going to drop like a rock like that.

What a pack of scumbags. Buying cheap and selling high

I don't know if this is any good to you as it is for the Xbox S, but this is the relevant part of my email from GameStop:

"Your reservation is at the store:

You can pick up the product in store from the release date 10/11/2020"

thanks, they are defo more cryptic with the word 'Release' but who knows, just wondering how much they know about their console allocation.

all the sudden Irish retailers are sooo quiet about more stock so the above is the only thing left to hang on

I've just noticed that my Gamestop order page has a date on it:

PlayStation® 5 Queue
Release: 27/12/2020

now, I know its not guaranteed at all but wonder if anyone else can check and see if thats a generic date or maybe they do have some idea when will they fullfill the orders for people in the queue.

thanks in advance!

Temporarily though? There will be more coming into them in the next few weeks and probably less going out as people hold off with PS5 coming.

I suppose it depends on what price they are selling them at, €340 is pretty scandalous considering what they are paying.

I think CEX got so many in such a short space of time that it temporarily cratered the price.

Feck it anyway, I was hoping to trade in my OG 500gb PS4 to CEX at some point before launch, but not for another month or so, and that's down to €124 now. Wouldn't be surprised at this rate if it's below 100 by PS5 launch, almost wouldn't be worth it at that stage and might just put it in another room like someone else said.

Yeah, gonna just enjoy Mafia 1 now, never know, the price might start going back up. I see they are going for 250-270 on Facebook so might even make out better. I will check CEX 1st week of October and if still the same, will throw it up on facebook.

Yeah they said that alot of people were probably going to wait until mid October before trading in. Could it go back up in a week or so? Madness that they buy for 163 yet sell for 350

I was gonna do start of this week but thought, ah, will play Mafia 1 for a week and take a 40 quid hit. My own fault but was really hoping to go the CEX route.

What if somebody buys a launch console and then sells it at a vastly inflated price to help fund Tiny Tim's leg operation?

Tiny Tim is a dickhead.

Thanks for the headsup. My GOW Pro, boxed went to €240 from €262. The only reason I still have it is the lad wants to play it.

To add to this, I still have blu-rays as well from some of my favourite films. Sure, some of them have ended up on Netflix or Prime but some haven't. So if I want to watch Indiana Jones (and dno't want to wait til Christmas), I can break it out and watch it. Same with a number of quality films.

I'm of course not buying films as regularly as I used to on blu-ray, but I still pick up the odd one if I love it. And then it's mine forever.

There is also the far superior audio and video quality to consider. For most people streaming is the way forward but for a/v enthusiasts there is no comparison right now.

Was going to trade my own Pro at the weekend. Should have done it the weekend gone.

I didn't think the drop would be that drastic! Was hoping for at least 200. Feck that, will try sell on Facebook marketplace so.

Can't imagine many others knew. They were all taken by people either on this forum or friends of people on the forum. I pre-ordered one and clued in 3 friends.

Haha everyone with a remote interest knew,more so than outside this forum.

Someone already posted this link- But I think most of the UK are following it as well. When the alert went out for John Lewis . I had it in my bag paid and when Bank sent the alert text to verify put it in AND then the dreaded sorry no stock . That was within 1 sec of the alert .

The alert sound is great . Has most of the major retailers.

Can get one of these consoles reserved anywhere..

I guess this is the year the young lad finds out there's no such thing as Santa..

Go onto hotukdeals and subscribe to preorder thread there. Better chance of getting one from UK them here as more retailers. Use Parcel Motel/Wizard if they dont deliver to Ireland.
