It's a reasonable price at €460 considering, still cheaper than buying separate if you did manage to get one.

Your missing the point .

He accepted an offer of €575 from an Adverts user yesterday . If the user on Adverts paid a deposit then why is it on eBay ...and so on . I have my suspicions that this seller is trying it on to scam some cash at this stage. If you win the bid on eBay and pay by paypal then he has your cash before the release date.

Question : Is there a midnight opening for the PS4 ? I've one pre ordered at XtraVision and wanted to know if I can pick it up Thursday night ?

not really, 460 is only the current bid, plus it is the killzone bundle, not the megabundle, add the cost of postage (€50 !!!!!!!!!!)

It is possible he has access to more than 1 console but you are right if he sells on ebay for anything above what he buys it for he has the money to pay for it on launch day with no risk. Pure profit.

You can only hope that whoever is bidding is using it as a safety net and gets a console somewhere else and leaves people like that in the lurch.

It's easier for the seller to be scammed with paypal than the buyer.

That is 33 countries which is not far off 45, plus another 15 two weeks after, the launch window ends in March, so what are you trying to point out ?

You seem to have a chip on your shoulder about something, and should try counting that out again, tell you what if you get one without a pre order before Christmas, stick up a picture of it with your username on it.

Told guaranteed KZ for release in HN but realistically looking at pre-order with Amazon, just hope it's there before Christmas.

jvrk · 12-11-2013 12:15AM

Heard argos may not be getting them at launch when I collected cod ghosts today.

If you think that, fair enough. Was told by guy in Smyths tonight that unless you have pre ordered, you won't get it with them till new year. GameStop are saying the same thing.

Yeah, you might get lucky in Tesco or Argos, heck maybe with Amazon also.

While there may not be as big a shortage as is forecast I'm prepared to say there will be a shortage of some description. Sony have a finite capacity to manufacture everything that makes a PS4. That capacity will be stretched and some will be disappointed come Christmas. I will update on friday about my gamestop experience once I've played with the PS4 for a wee bit. Hopefully it will say PSNID : Scooobie_3e3 is currently playing PS4 - Killzone sometime between 12:45 and 1:30am PST.

I need a bit of advice

I have just moved my Killzone pre-order to Amazon after all the grief with Gamestop. Banning people from their facebook for complaining was the last straw.

Other than a saving of €12 but I may not get the game at launch. I decided to use parcel motel to get it the next day. It then leaves we with no games to play on launch day. I am trying to decide to pay the €70 and get it launch day or wait and get it the next day. I think the hype is getting to me.

I also moved my AC4 Buccaneer edition to GAME.

Now I have to cancel my gamestop pre-orders but I am afraid if I do that they might do some deals and I lose out.

It is wreaking my head.

I really can't see them doing any deals for those of us,they screwed over.They are
in a position to not give a damn about their online customers(in Ireland),they don't deserve the business.

Varik · 12-11-2013 02:13AM

Amazon UK are now saying the PS4 bundles will update by the 15th.

For those who've lost track, it's gone 4th, 11th, and now 15th.

Its a load of crap to be honest.

I ordered a PS4 on its own September 27th and am still waiting on a delivery date. I realise they are in an awkward position but if they say you will get a date at a certain time you should get one.

I presume I will be safe enough to get it for Christmas which is all I want anyway.

There are a few free to play games available at launch. They might keep you ticking over for a day or two.

Where did you pre-order mate? I pre-ordered in swords about 3 weeks ago as well. After been told I was def getting one on launch day, I have now been told im not:)

Some amount of bull going on. Where did you pre-order?

cloud493 · 12-11-2013 10:34AM

I'd like to change to amazon, but my gamestop order is secure, so I think I'l stick with it.

I never bothered.. a bit lazy.. but I was wondering if it was a late opening in general.

I see Sony will demo the PS4 in Dublin on November 20th for a while

I will be there.
