    box.co.uk (where I preordered), scan.co.uk and I think a couple of others seemed to do the exact same thing. Their preorders were open for about an hour, a lot longer than other websites, and they are computer sites that don't traditionally get a lot of stock for consoles.

    Box are acting the same way, very vague, won't give out any information, sent the "first wave" and "sorry" emails at 5:30pm on a Friday evening when support was closed. The "second wave" is apparently around the 9th December for them, but I wouldn't trust either company to have enough stock for everyone until wave 5 or 6 at least.

    I could be wrong, hopefully I am, but that also seems to be the general consensus on Twitter.

    Yeah I'm starting to think same. I'm gonna keep looking anyway and keep my place in queue. If I can pick one up in Ireland is better tbh. Hopefully refund process will be smooth

    I actually had a preorder with Scan before I got one with Box. The refund request was processed the day after I sent it, and I had the money back about 5 days later. No hassle at all. They are a very trusted website, just not good with console launches.

    Yeah, my plan is pretty much the same, I'll try the few possible places on Thursday, and then just wait and see what happens in early December.

    I got the gamestop email last week and sorted out the ps5 delivery. Never received one for the extra controller I've paid off. Anybody in the same boat?

    I'm still waiting to hear how I will collect from one of the click and collect stores. So frustrating. Been waiting two weeks on the "call"

    I got my "voucher" for accessories last week, I'd be on to them about that if I were you

    There are a good few of us on here and it's a small enough country. I'm sure if we pull together we can figure out where the warehouse is :pac:

    Not yet, I'd hope it ships tonight to ensure delivery for Thursday. I had Controller and game shipped at 8pm last Tuesday. Controller arrived Friday, game arrived this morning.

    Did this come in as an email? Obviously two of you posted it so I don't doubt it, but I'm on the watchlist and got nothing and last I checked chat support had no information.

    Yes was emailed. Will sell out quick though as its been posted on UK sites also so there will be thousands ready at lunch time to grab one

    I wonder if they only sent it to people on watchlist from very early on. A few places to keep an eye on anyway, so there's at least some hope. I wish they did a prime early access on it.

    Thing about Amazons website is that It doesn't crash. You either snag it fast or you don't.

    Did you have the online PS5 Queue order placed or in-store?

    Follow a guy on Twitter talking about Harvey Norman now listing the PS5 for the 19th November at 8am.

    Says UK&Ireland in a recent Tweet

    He goes by PS5 Stock Updates

    I checked mine earlier today and it still says Unshipped. Last email I got from them a week or two ago said it would be shipped on Wednesday (for delivery on Thursday, though given it's going through Parcel Motel could push it out to Friday).

    For those wondering about GS ps5 store collections, you have to have it paid off. They won't be doing payments on the day. I managed to get through to GS Santry and they said I can pay over phone or pop down (as it's open for click and collect.)

    On the day it's literally the console being handed to you, none of the typical GS sales speil. Was given my collection time. Happy days

    Oh and they aren't accepting cash either! I had cash put aside for it but I'll just lodge it to my account now!

    I got a mail on Saturday to say it was being processed and a few mins later the money left my account.

    Got a separate one saying they are going out Wednesday to arrive Thursday. I've fingers crossed PM gets it to me Friday.
