I just checked Amazon

My PS4 is marked as In transit

Tracking Information:
Status: In transit
Ship Carrier UPS
Tracking ID: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Latest Event: Parcel has been handed over to the carrier and is in transit - 28 November 2013 3:02:59

Does this look good for Friday delivery ?

Because just above that is says "Delivery estimate Monday 2 Dec 2013 "

Who is the carrier, hopefully it was shipped out of Dublin?

Did you pay in full? You should be getting one tomorrow if you did. Strange, I bought mine in BT Dublin and nothing was said about a phone call.

yes i paid in full on saturday and they said they'd be calling us this week and another boardsie said the guys in Cork will be calling us today. i was told id get it launch day but you never know for sure

Hopefully its with good news that the stock is there and advising us when to come in.

I reckon they don't want 100 gamers at the door at 9am so perhaps calling people to come in AM or PM. Thats just my guess

Yes I'm 100% sure you will have it tomorrow. Amazon want to say the worst case scenario to cover themselves.

Has anyone got the demensions of the outer amazon box? I've seen the Killzone pack and it's a fairly large box!

I contacted amazon about the outer packaging, it will fit in the medium sized parcel motel locker

Weres the best place to trade a few ps3 games in for a ps4 game??

None of the stores will give you a particularly good deal but if you are picking up a console in store, may as well try which ever store that is. If not, the usual suspects, gamestop, smyths etc

Chris369 wrote: »

What about cex are they better I guess they will have no ps4 games though

I heard they only give store credit.. and they might not have PS4 games in stock .. ( thats what i heard .. might not be true )

They pay cash, you can check the website to see wht they offer cash or credit wise

Ok sound might just cash a few games in

Its definitely worth cashing in some if you think you are not going to play them again, I got rid of a load of ps3 and wii games a few weeks ago but only got on average about €7 - €8 for them - even though some of them were still pretty new, enough to buy a PS4 game but when you picture how much they cost, it just felt kind of dirty.

Still not heard from Smyths about the launch tonight. and of course they arent answering the phone.

I wonder are they limiting the number they are inviting to the launch? I mean just a subsection of people that have launch day consoles? If they have 100 consoles (just as an example) will they want 100 people turning up at midnight?

Seems a little late at this stage if you have not heard by now. Then again, I suppose I only got that call yesterday.

They are offering 38 euro for Ghosts, seeing as I paid 45 for it in Super Valu I am trading it in tonight, along with a list as long as my arm. Will be a nice chunk off my PS4 tomorrow

Don't wait till midnight to be trading them in :P don't be THAT person ha

After a scary 12 hours, I found my pre order receipt!!

If this is gamestop, they keep everyone on record so all you need is some form of ID to prove who you are...

I'm sure everywhere else works the same way :pac:

I preordered in June, I'd be damned if I still have my receipt haha
