    What will happen if Smyth's try take the money and you don't have it in your account ? Have the ps5 and spider man pre-ordered so should I just keep 600 in my main account at all times or am I safe to just.move it from savings about a week or two before?


    They don't take payment right now. Payment upon collection.

    They take the payment the day before collection, there is no transaction in store

    Home delivery pre order bagged after much frustration.

    Will that arrive around release date?

    Once it is in the basket it should be held for you and if you don't check out in 15 mins it is put back. That's the way most stores work. So you have time to log in and type out credit card details.

    I got disc version reserved, but would prefer digital only - is there anyone from Waterford with preorder for digital that would like to swap for disc version?

    Anyone know the best way to transfer an amazon preorder to someone rather than cancelling? Have a digital ordered to my parcel motel. Not looking to scalp.

    I'm on the site about an hour at this stage.

    Got it added to my basket seconds after it went live.

    Crashed dozens of times but eventually got to the payment screen.

    Filled in all the details but 'Place order' button greyed out and it eventually refreshed me all the way back to my basket.

    I've been stuck between this screen and the 502 error screen for the last 30mins.

    I don't think I'll be getting on at this stage and I'm fine with that - only my stubbornness keeps me hitting refresh.

    What do you mean by transfer exactly? You could change the payment details and delivery address certainly but it would have to be someone you trust/trusts you.

    If you cancel it it will go back into the system and someone else will have a chance at it. Unless you have a mate looking for one the nicest thing you can do is to cancel it.

    Probably better to cancel it so or sell it at cost. Would be nice if any excess orders could go to the people here that are still stuck.

    Any possibility that Smyths would switch a collection order to home delivery, anyone ever managed it before?

    We should start a poll to see who managed to get a pre-order today and who didn't!

    I managed to get one for pick up. Didn't think I would. Absolute nightmare.

    Got as far as green button but it did nothing when pressed. Errors in chrome console only. Didnt get order through - eventually showed cart empty again.

    “Roll it back”

    If you change your delivery details AFTER placing a pre-order, will SmythsToys deliver to the new address? I have no interest in the one I got but was trying for a friend. Rather than being delivered to me, I'd rather it get delivered to him if he wants it.

    True but there is no safe way to do that. You could go to the hassle of selling it at cost to a stranger but cancelling it is effectively the same thing with a lot less hassle for yourself.

    If I was you I would just hang onto it until the first or second week of November and see if someone you know could use it.
