    Just got email from Gamestop with a gift card number worth 299.99 to order the Series S online and get it delivered to my home address.

    Guessed this was how they'd do this. They did the exact same thing with the FF VII Deluxe Edition back in March.

    I'd say the only people at risk of not getting on Day 1 from MS are those in rural locations.

    I've a feeling i'll be one of those but it's not the end of the world if I have to wait an extra day or two. I think UPS are doing the deliveries, my past experience with them is not great, half the time they don't show up for the allocated slot delivery time and they try again the next day or the day after that.

    When I ordered the OG Xbox One through them, I ended up getting it at like 10pm on launch day, I recall there being some issue with the trailer full of xboxs getting from the UK to Ireland which led to the delays but that was 7 years ago now

    Let's blame Don Mattrick for it. Whole launch was a disaster.:D

    Not yet, and am paid up etc so it’d be the postage paid and done. Possibly a separate wave tomorrow? Wonder what the split for X/S is actually...

    I'd imagine most people can't run an ethernet cable to their living room tv all that easily. Would be far preferable to have a console that doesn't require you to make significant home alterations.

    I'm with Virgin Media so feed comes from TV point so router is close by so it's easy to do ethernet. So I get 360mb on the Xbox.
    I appreciate that not everyone is with VM though.

    Argos and GameStop do. It seems you can now convert them to Microsoft credit as well.

    Strange but any sign of payment has disappeared from my Credit Card account. Up to today it showed as reducing my available credit by €499.99 and now that's gone. Weird.

    My order is still swing as pre-ordered on MS website and shipping next week.

    I assume all is ok and it was just a pre-authorisation that will go throigh fully when shipped.

    Got the GS email, but when I add the code it fails and I get this message:

    "Maximum quantity has been reached"

    Anyone else get this?

    Same as me, won't allow me to select my credit card as payment. Getting an error that there is an issue on their side and waiting a while might resolve.

    The series x is in my cart, so close.

    You have any luck completing the transaction?

    Same here with the issue. Guessing it's their systems going down? I'll be fuming if I missed out on my 'launch' console because they sent an email at 8pm and I spot it two hours later.

    I went to edit cart and it has now accepted my credit card and the buy now button is green. But on clicking it again getting an error that issue on their end.

    How long will the item stay in my cart is what I'm wondering!

    How were you able to add it to your cart? I keep getting a popup saying you are leaving MS but I never leave the MS website.

    Don’t know if it’s really even in the cart as if you go back there’s none available. Possibly a glitch.
