    Anyone who has got from smyths with fastway.. how long has it taken? Was collected yesterday and in their depot scanned at 2am this morning.

    Picked up yesterday and delivered this morning, I would worry about having the console on launch day if it comes by Fastway as my other items from Smyths came on Tuesday morning from UPS and DPD.

    went c&c for the console myself.

    Fastway will always deliver, just the 'fast' bit isnt ever accurate

    Lads, has anybody been able to get an answer from Gamestop?

    I've a mate who pre-ordered and paid his console off in full back when the price was announced, he's not received any communication from Gamestop since and they're not responding to the emails he's sent. Anybody know a better way to contact them?

    Haven't heard a tap, have open tickets on their Zendesk and no response too

    Edit:

    JUST GOT GAMESTOP EMAIL TO COMPLETE PURCHASE AND ARRANGE DELIVERY

    Has anyone changed their delivery address on Amazon? I want to change it from Parcel Motel to my work address, the option is there to do so but I'm hesitant to click on it in the small chance it screws my order
    You won't be able to, I tried to change my Amazon console preorder from Parcel Motel to my house. It won't switch to an ROI address. (I was able to switch some of the accessories)

    Only thing that is good in regards to ps5 if getting it from gamestop that the console is out on a Thursday so if they send them latest on Tuesday should hopefully get it launch day or day after. Problem with xbox release date was a Tuesday so they probably only posted them out on Monday.

    Anyone having an issue where when they go to the cart, their voucher value isnt taken off the price of the console?

    EDIT: I was just being stupid. Missed that the gift code and pre order coupon were separate things

    That's one reason. Other reason is local multiplayer games.

    Most of the time I have one controller charging, playing with the other. Swap out as needs be. But then also if I have someone over, quick game of Fifa or something.

    I like to have a second to alternate between them and minimise wear and tear, waiting for a full black one this time though.

    Controller seems to be in stock, wondering if I should get myself a spare too :)

    Yeah I tried and it wouldn't let me. I'm just going to have Parcel Motel deliver it directly to me instead of a locker.

    For anyone hoping to snag a PS5 on launch day, what's the strategy?

    When do you think they might become available to buy online, midnight of the 18th?

    What websites will be your focus? Smyths, Harvey Norman, Currys?

    Gonna be refreshing a few different sites like Game and Smyths.

    I’m happy enough waiting until after December for myself. But been trying to snag one for the little bro since it’s probably his last year for Santa.

    Just don’t be shocked if there sold out in minutes

    Edit: I’d suggest making accounts and setting up card and address info on sites now so you don’t get slowed down trying to buy one.

    Anyone hear any word from Gamestop about the in store collections considering it's a week away now. I got the text end of October saying I'm in the launch day allocation. Then start of this month I got a text saying my store will contact me with the rest of the fulfilment but I've heard nothing since. I pre-ordered in store and also my store is currently open for click and collect, tried ringing them past week but no answer, just so confused??

    Smyths have already said they won’t have any more stock until December anyway

    Picked up a controller and NBA 2K21 via click and collect in Smyths just now.

    Very quick and easy.

    Queue outside the door of about 5 people when I arrived but they had 3 staff members going along the queue scanning the barcode you receive via email when the order is ready.

    Said staff member goes and gets your order and brings it out to you.

    I was back sitting in my car in less than 3 minutes.

    Cheeky. They don't have to price match now either as it's sold out everywhere else.
