anyone know if you have to pay a deposit to pre-order in smyths? or do they take full price up front?

No deposit and they do not take the money upfront. They will take the money on dispatch or a few days before for delivery; or the day of release or day before for click and collect.

The answer to this question should be in a sticky!

and the rest.... some people on this thread put down money last year in gamestop

They've taken on way more than they can fulfill, it's going to be a mess.... Also given their financial situation, I'd say they simply won't care about the negative impact that the impending backlash will have on them because in the short to medium term they're history....

In short, i'm not saying don't go with gamestop, just be cautious because the warning signs are there

I am 100% saying don't go with Gamestop

There's also the fact that they have been taking pre orders for 6 months before they were official. Gamestop is the last place I would try to pre-order a PS5

They’re charging 50 euro to have the idea of a console at some point in its life cycle

There is No chance they have any more preorders, certainly not for receipt in the near future

They haven't said but then again Gamestop are such a huge company globally they should get a further allocation. Maybe they don't need to bother advertising it because they'll be nabbed within minutes as there are so many people who are following stock levels like PS5sales on Twitter.

are game stop doing pre orders today aswell

Doubt it, they were taking pre-orders without being sure of stock to fulfil the orders so they already have a backlog to fill.

They've said that they cannot guarantee people who pre-ordered from months ago they they will receive a console before Christmas, they've sold way more pre-orders then consoles they will receive I believe.

Most would be absorbed by the 'virtual queue' they are running.

They have a list, any new stock will be already allocated, I'd imagine.

Dublin maybe, but in Mayo anyway it has never happened in over 5 years of using them.

Only time in Limerick seeing a Sunday delivery was a few years ago when the lockers were so busy before Christmas they couldn't get parcels into them fast enough because of so many online ordering, otherwise nothing.

Anybody else remember that sh*t show when Parcel motel just gave up on the Talk to us forums after that.

More confirmation on PM sunday delivery here

Are many people planning on upgrading their TV at the same time?

Dublin maybe, but in Mayo Sunday delivery has never happened in over 5 years of using them, it will always arrive on a Monday if it is in the depot on a Saturday.

After midday the site will go bananas or whenever lunch is in the Smyths office.

Best be safe and get back from your lunch at 11.30

I think the main thing is upgrading from hd to 4k. Would be nice to get the 2 together if you had an old tv.

Pre-orders at lunchtime must be a cushy job to have lunch at 11
