    just ordered here,

    http://www.homeandgardengifts.co.uk/sony-playstation-4-ps4.html

    a tad more expensive than other places but guaranteed for launch, plus used parcel motel and p+p worked out cheaper.

    only 4 left

    Have they taken the funds straight away or do they wait until its shipped ?

    When you paid for it did the number of items in stock go down? I'm looking at the kilzone bundle but it seems like it has said that 4 items in stock all day. If they didn't take money straight away I would have done them but I'm just weary in case something else comes up.

    Just called xtravision in Finglas regarding my non launch day preorder with them. I asked them about bundles they're offering and one of their staff told me that they're offering the console + killzone + 2 controllers for €440! My bull**** alarm went off as it sounds too good to be true (for that price anyway). I asked him was he sure about that. He was very adamant about that price...

    That was said to a few others as well awhile back, but nothing came of it in the end.

    I just placed backup preorder in Limerick HN for killzone bundle after GS inform me that I probably get ps4 in third wave after xmass.
    HN stuff confirm they get few extra KZ bundles from sony ready to go by November 29 but these are nearly sold out in system, so today/tomorrow is last chance to get one.

    Slightly off topic but for the extra coverage of 500€ with parcel motel for 14days should you buy it when your item is shipped?

    Seems to be a bit of confusion on amazon uk for overseas people who upgraded their ps4 to a bundle whether they will receive it release time.

    Surely that's not correct? People here have stated they've ordered much later than August 24th and have received release day estimates (or in some cases +4 or 5 days because they went for free shipping).
    If you go by all the posts about pre-orders on the Amazon forums, there's a heap of people who've ordered very recently with bundles who've got release dates, I've chatted twice and emailed CS to get them to confirm some sort of delivery date but they re-confirmed no release date by email today. Not sure what else to do.

    I don't particularly care about release date but did want it for Christmas and I'm worried it might even be too late for then.

    I wouldn't put too much stock in what Smyths say. I pre-ordered the console in May, and got the option to upgrade to the kilzone bundle in early October, which I did. Last week I got a call saying that Smyths couldn't stand over the bundle offers (despite what Sony said), and the put me back down to a console only. Apparently the store in Swords, only got 13 of these bundles! They also said they may have some offers on the day, but to be honest they are a joke, and I will not be shopping there again!

    Sony confirmed that this was Smyths fault.

    In what way was it Smyths fault? I had the same thing being put back to basic bundle but they said they just didn't get the number they were told.

    Of course this is Smyths fault, they should have confirmed the numbers before offering them to customers. Either way the understanding from Sony was that all pre-orders were to receive the offer of a bundle, and if they wanted one, then they would get one. All Smyths had to do was order them when they knew what they needed. There was a screw up somewhere along the line.

    Example; There was supposed to be a watchdogs bundle, the game is delayed, but anyone who ordered from Amazon can change this to another bundle - go figure! How can this be done if there are no bundles left?

    Essentially what did was sell something, then take it back saying they had no right to sell it.

    I have written to them requesting that they honour the price of the bundle for the individual components. I don't expect them to do this, but it is on record for when I contact the ombudsman.

    I really wish xtravision would get the finger out. My local store still doesn't know what's happening with bundles. It's really frustrating.

    I *may* have an extra pre-order for the basic console in Harvey Norman (Limerick) going spare. I have two pre-orders on one receipt - ordered August 22nd and I was told I was 7th & 8th in the queue and it is expected I would have it on release day. The order was supposed to be for two friends but one of them looks like he is going to wait for a while.

    Not sure yet, but I'll post back here if it is going spare.

    Spoke to mine yesterday, he told me I would get mine on launch day and wanted to take down contact numbers to call people about changing to a bundle when he had details about how many they would have next week or so

    Not sure was this 17 for Limerick HN or all stores.

    Are HN still accepting Killzone bundle preorders in store? I've a preorder with Smyths (late August, non launch) but if KZ bundles are still going in store, I'll choose that instead. Based on my late August Smyths preorder, I've no idea if that's second batch or third - before or after Xmas.
