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’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

Maybe they can a DFS Couch offer on it "Guaranteed Christmas delivery" when Christmas also occurs in January

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

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

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

The answer to this question should be in a sticky!

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.

Well that was easy, now just to wait

When did you pre-order? If it was today, I am almost certain you will not get the console on launch, and most likely not before Christmas either. Unless a hell of a lot of people cancel their pre-order, which some are.

You do realize that you bought the place in the queue and that you can get console around Easter?

Notice the word "queue"

padair · 25-09-2020 11:53AM

It's live

kitten_k · 25-09-2020 11:53AM

Go go go

Zero-Cool · 25-09-2020 11:53AM

I know people are giving out about multiple console orders but if my order was in GS virtual queue, I would definitely be trying to get one somewhere else and then cancel GS if I found one. GS virtual queue should be last resort.

jontr · 25-09-2020 11:53AM

And Smyths is on and is down.

breakfast roll · 25-09-2020 11:53AM

They have been taking them longer than 6 months, a friend of mine has a pre order from last year.
