They didn't have Xboxes in store as of yesterday. Don't know if they got them today but I'd assume they did.

So seems like they won't have the PS5 till the day before either

Ya i guess every product is different lets hope An Post has nothing to do with anyone s machines anyway or we will never see them! :pac:

Did most of you trade in your PS4's for your PS5's?

I missed the CEX offer of €260 for my Pro, but got €220 for it on adverts about a month ago.

I had another second hand PS4 that i had got hold of cheap couple years ago that i messed around with hoping the jailbreak scene would be as good as PS3!


Decided to update it and sell it during the lock down earlier in the year got 400 euro for it!

Re: 12 hours MM campaign- I know it's definitely short for some but personally I prefer shorter games. I only have a few hours a week MAYBE where I can play games due to a 9 month old so it's quite daunting starting games I know will take me months to finish so I actually target shorter ones.

I know that's far from the usual and most would prefer longer beefier games but I'm happy anyways haha

I replayed Spiderman on new Game Plus and just smashed through the story, no side missions and I can't say it was a lot more than 12 hrs.

Are we expecting the headsets to arrive a week earlier or on the same day as the console?

I think all games and accessory's are the 12th?

This guy selling xbox series x mentioned he took deposit for 23 PS5s already and still expecting more for sale near launch

That guy is always scalping on items and I've a feeling they are a Boards member.

There been loads of bargains posted here over the years and within a few hours he has the items listed at a markup over RRP but we'll above what he paid for it.

It'd be great if Revenue caught up with him as the way he operates and the volume of items he sells I'd be 100% confident they'd see him to be carrying on a trade.

Revenue dont care, there are several sellers who sell alot more than him on Adverts like of Gshock and Armani Versace selling 10-20 phones a day worth thousands. Both of these actually have registered VAT numbers but do they pay any tax, nope.

Also there are genuine businesses on Adverts who sell off the record from Dublin 1 shops without tax, that's why they will never give you a VAT receipt.

If you have a VAT number you're more than likely registered for Income Tax unless they are using a VAT number from a different business.

Both Gshock and Armani had shops to sell phone accessories but then they continued to sell phones of the records. Gshock sold that to someone but he still uses the VAT number to get stuff cheaper. If you ask him for a shop receipt, he will get you one from that shop.

Both of them are selling phones worth thousands a day and have been doing it years. Also as I said there are dozens of phone shops from D1 on Adverts who are selling the phones off the record. They give you a hand written receipt with no mention of VAT etc.

We weren't talking about those shops though we were talking about the scalper Cornered Tiger. Most of the shops around D1 sell phones cheaper than can be gotten elsewhere.

My reply was in context to Revenue - not the sellers.

Quick question on digital only PS5

Does anyone know if I re-download a digital game I own on PS4 onto the digital only PS5, can I still play it on PS4, or is it only PS5 from then on (i.e. do game saves stay on PS5 version only or can you cross play across both machines?)

Am I right in thinking if I own a disc based PS4 game and not the digital version, I won't be able to play it on the digital only PS5 without purchasing the digital version (in other words, is the digital only PS5 smart enough to know I own the physical media or is Sony forcing you to buy the digital version?).

I'm keeping the PS4 Pro so not a problem, but just wanted to check.
