    You've more playstations and xboxes than anyone here. Don't be scaremongering people saying they wont get one. I've seen at least 70 xboxs pop up in smyths today alone. It's been similar last few days. Playstations will pop up and hopefully demand will be met.

    May help if you actually read posts and what they mean.

    This is what my post said to make it easier for you.

    1.PS5 demand is higher than Xbox.
    2.It is harder to get than an Xbox.
    3.Probably will be harder to get by Xmas compared to Xbox
    4. There will me more stock for sure but people will need to be quick and on the lookout. (Xbox sold out in mins every store is showed up on , so you had to be quick for that also)

    All are facts.

    Which part is scare mongering?

    Sony has said that stock will be, low. I think Covid has affected production. Hopefully another batch before x-mas, but will probably be low numbers.

    do you have a source for this info from Sony?

    Thanks for the update, the hundreds of people watching this thread to get a ps5 really appreciate it.

    This thread is a disaster to be honest. Full of nonsense and the odd bit of help and even when that’s provided, it’s shot down with scepticism. Yes I get the irony in my post but it needed to be said.

    I googled it. Sony are denying it saying no production problem.

    It's ridiculous people coming on here scaremongering. That'll cause people panic buy at crazy prices to people with loads of consoles

    Just an update on Littlewoods. They emailed earlier to say they will deliver mid December. I got one off them yesterday.

    You can keep this attitude but it's not going to help you get one. It's widely known Sony haven't even managed to fulfil their pre-orders so expecting them to have that much stock produced and with retailers in 4 weeks is unrealistic when they've been preparing for months for launch.

    Presume it's to be seen not be enabling scalpers. Focus is only ever on high profile items though.

    So why are CEX allowed to do it?

    I'd say that is down to Distilled Media not owning CEX and therefore not having a say in how they operate.

    Yes, I ended up with two confirmed. I got one from tesco, but didn't get a confirmation email until tonight. Then I got one on harvey norman that was cancelled, but they called today and told me they have one for me to collect tomorrow.

    And I nearly met with a lad from Facebook today for €1400. Delighted I didn't now.

    Harvey norman said they got about 30 in Swords for release day, but they had 45,000 on their website.

    That's cause he's selling them all for massive profit!!!

    He only talks about hardware and their prices in places like cex and adverts.

    Rarely if ever mentions actually playing games!!

    Mod note: Folks please keep this to stock updates only.

    Please note: nobody knows for sure yet when there’ll be more PS5s available, or where. Unless there’s official confirmation or actual stock available continue to take everything as speculation. There will be more, of course, but we have to wait and see when. That’s the current situation, hopefully we can keep this thread solely for proper updates as they’re announced.

    Did anyone manage to place an order on Amazon, based outside of Dublin for a PS5 and it's still not dispatched?

    No change on mine outside of the order confirmation at 13:03 and their support said they would "try help speed up the dispatch"...

    So for anyone desperate enough to try...

    Click save for later instead of adding to the basket.
    Setup an account with Curry's UK
    Use Parcel Wizard or whatever as delivery address.

    It might not get past that stage (I can't Checkout Securely but I'm iffy anyway so I didn't try on a laptop etc.).
    The failure is possibly due to the address or something but people on HUKD have said they've got the full way through.

    Good luck if you try it, I think its too risky.

    https://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/gaming/console-gaming/consoles/sony-playstation-5-825-gb-10203370-pdt.html

    EDIT: Tried a non NI address and it worked so maybe Address Pal Would work, think they're in England.

    Thank you so much man, got dpd tracking link today with delivery date of monday at address pal uk address.

    You are the sole reason I will have a ps5 within 2020 (In my country we dont even have a release date, my sister will bring it from ireland for me)

    Also special mention to @brainiac @Lilith Gorgeous Designer^
    Because only after I saw these guys order it I got the confidence to order it myself and take the risk.

    Hopefully chat here will die down so when there's stock people will actually see the link or announcement and not have to go back several pages to see something.

    I stopped reading the thread yesterday night after nothing was happening and didn't know Tesco had stock today until it was too late!
