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.

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.

jontr · 25-09-2020 01:00PM

I think they're all gone now.

Denisoftus · 25-09-2020 01:00PM

Now stuck in basket, clicking on checkout does nothing

I think its over

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.

Home delivery pre order bagged after much frustration.

Will that arrive around release date?

Ya should do. Estimated date is given in the email confirmation as 19th.

Agree game over on this end

:mad: FU Smyths.

martyos121 · 25-09-2020 01:02PM

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.

el Fenomeno · 25-09-2020 01:02PM

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.

Denisoftus · 25-09-2020 01:02PM

I have entered card details 5!!! times, and got nothing, so back user experience Smyth

"We have now filled all pre-orders on PlayStation 5 consoles."

Right that's me done with this ****e.

mcgrailg · 25-09-2020 01:03PM

my order has been stuck in my basket for over an hour now, have been onto customer service to see if they can help but they are saying they cant even access the site. He said thats as its in the basket there might be a small hope but he cant guarentee anything

The Ayatolla · 25-09-2020 01:03PM

What a farce. Not even gonna bother anymore until they're in free flowing availability.

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.

Do smyths deliver on release day ? anyone have any experience of preordering from their site before ?

Denisoftus · 25-09-2020 01:04PM

Bots are still trying thought, getting 502 all the time

Liamo_mu · 25-09-2020 01:04PM

Is anyone able to edit their payment details? The auto fill in my computer filled in a different name that isn't on my debut card.

iamtony · 25-09-2020 01:05PM

My missus was finished ordering the disc version and then went in and got a disc less version and checked that out at about 12:45. Then she went in and got a headset and controller first order was swords but the others were blanch which seemed to work faster for some reason.

There is a good chance that they have different stock allocations, when the orders went up last week they were available at different times. Maybe send them an email or something.

Everything I pre-ordered with them has arrived either on release day or the day before, they are fairly reliable.

jontr · 25-09-2020 01:06PM

Smyth's website is back up, but when I try to go to checkout I get this:

The following items are out of stock:
PlayStation 5 Digital Edition Console

So it's game over.

Denisoftus · 25-09-2020 01:07PM

Still have it my basket, but nothing when I click on Checkout

Damn I was at checkouy, hit the place order button, nothing happened. Disappeared from my basket, no email. Do you receive an email straight away?

circos · 25-09-2020 01:08PM

Ive had better experiences with ticketmaster....that's saying something.

Payment timed out, same for me, tried 5 times - nothing. No email - no order I'm afraid.

If you keep trying, you can get another 502 error. That's about as close as you'll get :pac:

Markitron · 25-09-2020 01:09PM

'We have now filled all pre-orders on PlayStation 5 consoles'

On the main page, its over

Yeah you can edit on the order page. I'd give it a couple of hours before trying as the website is still hit & miss. They won't be charging until close to dispatch anyway so lots of time.

Usually takes a couple of minutes, but the same happened to me about 20 min ago and haven't got anything. Presume that you missed out.

Finical · 25-09-2020 01:11PM

Message on their site saying they have filled all pre orders now.
