    The first receipt is your original position in the queue, the second receipt is for your bundle.
    I have two receipts too.

    You're dead safe...no worries with that. They normally say that the new receipt replaces your old order and original receipt but you "DON'T" lose your place on the list.

    Well, did you have to put down a deposit with HN? if so it may be non refundable in which case you might not have a choice.

    Its paid in full online already. Was told I could cancel and get refund whenever.

    I'd say stick with amazon too,you'll know the week of the 29th if its gonna be dispatched or not and if its not just head into hn and see what the story is and if you get one in there just cancel the amazon order.

    I am slightly different to you 8all - pre-ordered Amazon, stuck with solus, no estimated delivery date, not guaranteed anything, while many, who ordered a bundle months later to my pre-order, they have confirmed release date consoles and been given 29 November delivery dates.

    I also have a pre-order with HN but opted for KZ bundle last week, guy said in shop "definitely pick it up on release day, you were in early" while showing me the list on screen (could have been his shopping list for all I know) so not sure what to do.

    I was advised deposit was fully refundable. Asked them to confirm it twice as I wanted to make sure but was it in writing? Nope.

    I ordered from Amazon at 4:14am on the morning of June 11th according to my email history. That was about 15 minutes after they announced the price at E3. If I'm not part of the first batch it will be a load of bulls*it! :D

    I put a pre order online with HN last week for the KZ Bundle. I got a call yesterday to say my order was received and accepted and I will be able to collect it in store on launch day. I paid in full but I'm worried now with all of the HN bashing here. I've never had a problem with them before...

    If I use the free Amazon prime trial can that be applied to an already ordered PS4, the trial is 30 days and it's a good time of year for it.

    Check with CS. If you change your order it might put you to the back of the queue. Better to let them change it for you

    Just doing the math an the Killzone bundle. To buy the lot separately from Gamestop will cost me €613.41 or Amazon €567

    I hope for some unofficial bundle from Gamestop but looking unlikely.

    I'm not interested in getting the PS4 straight away so I didn't pre order it, however I was told by a mate that they will be all sold out until May 2014 and it's gone to late to pre order one now.

    I was planning on waiting a bit but jesus I wasn't planning on waiting that long.

    However I have a feeling this is bull, this can't be true can it? He got this info off a guy who works in my local gamestop.

    By the way guys, you can also pickup an extra PS4 controller for €49.43 inc P&P from VGP! Seems to be the cheapest so far!

    Christ what utter bull**** from them, you could order weeks beforehand in store before they offered them online.

    Hi

    We are not able to offer the Killzone bundle online as directed. You can choose to except that or not. We understand there are a lot of upset customers who are upset about not being to avail of the offer as are we for not being able to reward our customers who ordered early with ourselves but there will be no offers for the console. your pre order for the PS4 console is still there & stands.

    Apologies again for any inconvenience
    Kind Regards

    What kind of customer care is that,Christ knows I've spent a fortune in their online store.Plus I had pre-ordered the minute the PS4 went up for order online:confused:

    I guess you are taking about Gamestop as well. They won't get any bundles at all because of the way their system is set up. We would lose our place if we make any changes to it. They said a while ago if any bundles were announced they will be able to change it. I have to try and find that comment and email it back to them.

    Yes GameStop and their constant BS.They also assured me way back when the pre orders became available,that I should also order my games early and I'd be able to upgrade to bundles if/when they became available.I have all this in emails and Tweets from them.

    Considering they do all changes to orders manually there is no reason they couldn't change it.


    The second I get a concrete order confirmation from Amazon I'm emailing Gamestop (the only way to cancel or alter an order) and telling them exactly why I'm cancelling.

    OK so I presume your dilemna is that you would prefer the Killzone bundle. I would wait until release date and keep an eye on your Amazon account to see if the delivery estimate is more realistic then, if they say they will be despatching within an acceptable time for you then cancel Harvey Norman, if not call into HN and see if they have actually got your console in stock and go with them.

    Had the price of your bundle just been £349 before that? My bundle hasn't updated pricewise yet.

    Got an update from Amazon, they're doing all the order changes manually (so there goes your excuse gamestop) and the rest should be done by the 11th.
