    And Argos do not allow you to enter without an online reservation.


    They don't actually check and if they did its free to reserve something, change your mind after you go in

    Jesus lads series x then haha ok you will see

    Troll elsewhere.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,752 ✭✭✭Mr Blobby


    Argos will be updating there system at 9.01am due to the website crash last week over the one x so your best bet is the site will crash at 9am so get your arse down to your local argos and you will be able to get one as the site will be down , I only know this because I work at argos and my regional manager told us as I want to get one too lol

    Interesting because my GF also works in Argos and heard no such thing....

    Why don't Sony or Microsoft ship these things in their 1000s to countries. Or is the demand so great?

    I'd like a disc version ps5 and for some reason had it in my head that it would be easy to get. How wrong was I lol


    Its part of their marketing strategy

    They dont but they ask you at entrance. My point being you cannot buy anything instore has to be reserved online

    The system uses cobalt in batteries. Cobalt mines shut due to covid so limited stock availability

    Dan your really sour over it I'm just giving a heads up but on the actual kiosk there is the option to type in the product you want to see if it's in stock and what I'm saying is have the ps5 code on hand that's all

    I doubt you'd have a chance to get into a kiosk and type the number in before one of the thousands online trying get one.

    Highly doubt you work there as outside every argos there's a person asking have you a reservation, if you don't, you don't get in.

    You can reserve on the self serve when you get to it. I suppose if 50 people are queuing outside for Argos to open they might clamp down and start checking but if your the only cute hoor ye will be grand

    The Argos's I've been lately have the kiosks sealed off and turned off and only the touch screen to redeem an order, so do you even work for Argos :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8 WexfordLad11


    Yeah and if you actually say no but I know the code the person at the door will tell you to either use the kiosk or the till as we always have one person on the tills, I'm sorry but we get OAPs in all the time and not all of them have the no how to use smartphones.

    If site is supposed to crash how are people going to know the product code?

    Mods kindly ban this troll.


    Product code should be 6795199 as its listed on the UK site they cross over. Its a great idea. Or product search on the in store till


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8 WexfordLad11


    Haha that's what I was trying to hint at but everyone here is deluded and think they work for sony and I was going to be nice and give you guys the code to give you the heads up but that Dan fella is the world's smartest man so he will steer you in the right direction :)

    The Series X had a different preorder code last week on UK site and then once released was a completely difference one.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,213 ✭✭✭utyh2ikcq9z76b


    Argos also have a Sequential order system so you could actually order something if you miss out at 9 and try a few 1000 numbers around your order number till you get kicked out of the store lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28 TheJockster


    haha Niceeeee!

    Mod note: WexfordLad has been banned for trolling. Obviously no way to tell yet whether Argos will have any stock tomorrow (signs point to no), but the poster in question was obviously trying to get a rise out of some posters.

    It goes without saying to take anything but official word / availability from retailers with a pinch of salt.

    Will Powercity have any? I know they sell the last gen, can't find any info

    You can on most things, but it depends on the stock in each individual shop.
    Their website is very basic, very old almost. But it's really good at showing stock.

    Chances are the Playstation will be delivery only though. Again depending on numbers
