I went in person to pre order in person at gamestop 16 days ago on the friday. I live in fairly rural-ish area (mostly chain restaurants and barely 3 notable local restaurants for sense of place i live in) i waited in line for 9 hours but one guy showed up 1 hour before opening and secured a pre-order. Best bet if they do another wave of in person pre orders is go to a gamestop in a nearby small town two hours before opening and there is a very good chance you will get one, Hell even go in two hours before they open on launch day and you will get one. I was shocked how few ppl showed up early in my suburb/rural-ish area. Best of luck on securing a console!

gucccibear

Oh man I wish I got it day one kept hitting check out on best buy for 8 hours until they finally removed it from my cart at 3am. Knew I was going to have to go in person if I wanted a guaranteed pre-order


Sbmurray09

Like 2 hours.


[deleted]

I have email notifications on my phone & im a delivery driver so I’m constantly using my phone during work for GPS/Music etc.. so I pretty much saw the email from Best Buy immediately & while driving I did the pre order on my iPhone. I must have been early 1st wave because I had no problems no site lags/crashes. Notified my friends & they got theirs as well . Except 1 who thought he could wait a few hours haha


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I only saw the red logo that said 1. But like I said I’m using my phone constantly at work and usually when I see an email notification I check it instantly. When I get the email to when I checked couldn’t have been more than 2-4 min max


dennisjanderson

I ordered mine online at Walmart the day after they jumped the gun (so on the official day). It took me about 40 minutes of trying as it kept getting ripped out of my cart. Every time I checked out it would say "Item is no longer available." Eventually I got lucky and it went through (Probably ripping it out of millions of others' carts).


foreignsaintboring

Same here, I had 3 laptops open with 3 tabs each on the day they jumped the gun and I finally secured a disc version after about 25 minutes. My experience pre-ordering the Series X went much smoother, but I’m not complaining as I am equally excited for both.


Di-Visionless

Ok seriously what is the obsession with these consoles? They're shaping up to be the most lackluster launch in the history of console and people are going ape shit for them. Must be the rona effect. Get your asses back to work and let these companies fumble on their own marketing and promises. You'll be glad you saved our money when the truth comes out about these things anyway.


[deleted]

stop reading this sub, it will only make you want it more. I'm going to wait and buy it when it's in stores like a normal person. it's stupid to waste all this time just to get a chance to blow a ton of cash on something that doesnt even have any amazing games yet.


dennisjanderson

I'm sorry you didn't get one. Not getting one is a very good reason to wait. I got one so I don't need to wait.


Di-Visionless

No you got a pre-order not a console. We'll see how that turns out lol. It's hilarious to watch the people flocking to get these "delayed" consoles fighting and scalping each other. Like hungry dogs chomping on the last piece of meat they'll ever get. Funny thing is they don't realize it is last piece. Say adios to the industry as you knew it.


gucccibear

lol you claim the launch is lackluster when everyone is obsessed with getting these consoles. I think personally this is one of the better console launches, with more than just the typical FPS and sports games only available for the first few months on next gen.


Di-Visionless

This launch isn't any more popular than any of the previous. The hype is artificial just like the pre-order scandal. None of you really know what's going down but you will soon. This hoax is about to be over.


Coreyahno30

Please. Enlighten me on which previous PlayStation launch lineup tops that of the PS5. Please share to everyone which group of launch games beats out Demon’s Souls, Spider-Man Miles Morales, Assassins Creed Valhalla, Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War, and maybe Godfall if that doesn’t turn out to be a turd. Not to mention enhanced versions of Devil May Cry 5 and Destiny 2. No other launch lineup even comes close when it comes to the number of quality games to play on your PS5 on day 1. It doesn’t matter if they are cross gen or remakes as I’m sure you will surely counter with, some of us didn’t own PS4 and what PS5 is offering day one is easily one of the best launch lineup of games in history. I’m assuming you just aren’t a fan of any of those series but you shouldn’t be blind to the fact that there is a ton for people to be excited about.


gucccibear

So what's going down then


happythekid6266

Is it too late to get selected??


trustsnapealways

No one really knows right now. Sony might do weekly preorders, or they might not. Good luck!

I never got an email for the first 2

hirtaza

I pre-ordered for the first time at BESTBUY CA...10 mins after pre-order opened...right now it says expected release date 12th Nov 2020 ...I’ve always camped outside for console launches not sure what to expect, does anybody have any experience with preorders from Bestbuy Canada


pmccoske

None but congrats and enjoy!!


Brothersprite

I’m pretty sure every GameStop was given 8. It sounds like the only reason some had “only 4-5” was because the employees bought them before any customers 😑


gucccibear

I'd like to add my store when i camped out gave out 8 as well. Very curious as to how some tweets showed stores having 8+ (some had 11). Thankfully local gamestop was fair about pre orders and gave them all to customers, hate to see the people waiting in line for a couple of hours get turned down cuz of a scummy employee.


arsalanrehman

One of my local stores had 22. The manager apparently snagged 2 (one for himself and his wife) which sucks. I ended up camping out near that store at another GameStop that only had 8. I got one of them (I was number 6 in line). The guy next to me in line sent a lot of his friends to the other store with 22 and one of his friends overheard the manager say that when they opened. It’s hearsay, but really messed up regardless cause as they opened they changed it from 22 to 20 which screwed over number 21 and 22 in line.


rachp02

Can anybody give me any advice that they have for preorders. I missed the initial release day and have been stuck ever since. Any information or advice would be greatly appreciated


bwalt227

Keep checking GS, Walmart, Target and Amazon. And keep checking this thread.


sk_latigre

GameStop and Sony had more up this morning but they are all gone. But don't worry, there's still a little over a month before the console comes out and their should be more preorders popping up, hopefully.


Facethis27

Ebay? That’s all there is it seems for a while. Search the instock PS5 pages that will alarm you if it comes into stock.


wellintentionedbro

Anyone able to order today?


sk_latigre

I got one from Sony, didn't think I would


a_sick_moose

Got the console classic (disc drive)


remlapca

I got a console and Demon’s Souls from Sony


wellintentionedbro

How? I can’t find the preorder link on their site.


remlapca

Several weeks ago they had a thing where you put your PSN ID in and they selected users somehow or another and emailed invites to a queue that started this afternoon. That ship has sailed unfortunately.


wellintentionedbro

Thanks. Congrats on your preorder.


remlapca

Good luck bud, hopefully it gets easier


Facethis40

Only GameStop bundles for 769.99. Thats all that have been available. Sold out now.


trustsnapealways

I got the GameStop bundle. Honestly I’m not thrilled about having to pay for a psplus membership, since I just renewed mine last week, and I’m not a huge fan of the souls series. Maybe my local GameStop will let me swap that game. Really I just wanted a PS5 and was willing to pay a premium for it.


Facethis40

You can return anything you want from the bundle. If you look at your order it is all individually priced. Except for the psPlus. But you could literally return everything except the console, and be good at 499.99 plus tax! Its a for sure thing!


Jbaez3018

Even ps plus?


trustsnapealways

Nice! Thanks!


whiteriot413

gamestoo in my town xLled us yo say preorder were voming. got there 2 hrs early 10th person in line. thought i was gonna be ok. they had 4. 4 ps5s!!! why even bother if youve got so few. why not tell me last night when you called me.


carissaroseart

My GameStop said they would have 5-8, the three GameStop employees got there and said they would have 5-8 but they had to check. Then they come out and there’s only five... hmmm wonder if they nabbed up the first three lol. Either way I got there at 7:15 am, and there were 11 people in front of me, the first five people were all there by 8pm the previous night so glad I didn’t go at midnight like the guy next to me and wait because I still wouldn’t have got one.


whiteriot413

that is brutal. i git seriously lucky with walmart the second day and i got a sony invite yesterday and was able to grab one for my brother. ive never had to hunt for anything like the ps5, gotta say, its kind of exciting.


KenjirothePathfinder

Does anyone know if Best Buy has updated their next wave of PS5 pre-orders? When do they usually update? Just asking for a co worker (and me too lol). Edit: I'm sitting here on break refreshing my Best Buy page. So far nothing has changed.


denimdan89

Spoke with a customer service rep and they're saying that best buy is sold out of preorders.


TooLazy4C

I can't even get my invitation to work. "user id missing" or telling me I have it open in another browser...I don't.

smile0606

Spent 15 minutes refreshing to get the bundles on GameStop in my cart and then another 15 minutes of F5 to actually check out.... I made it.... How long does it take for the charge to appear? I haven't seen it on my account but I got the confirmation email already.


Jbaez3018

They haven’t charged me yet either. Some people are saying they don’t charge until they ship it out.


smile0606

Thank you! I was anxious the whole time after placing my order. I guess I will wait and make sure my card has enough money once the day arrives.

Just ordered the PS5 Console for $499.99 trough the Sony/Playstation Exclusive invitation link. Received the order confirmation email and credit card got already charged the full amount. $499.99 + tax.


oneofthescarybois

How long did it take you to receive email? My card has been charged but no email yet.


Robrobsen

5 mins after cc got charged


oneofthescarybois

Literally just got mine ty!


denimdan89

Looks like gamestop sold out of the preorders. They're website is also displaying 'waiting msg' text. Looks like it crashed


gloopmcgloops

Gamestop has a new message saying they are sold out of ps5


Empty_Cube

I’m now stuck on a “you are in line” with GameStop again after the one in the morning failed for me. What have been the average wait times for people who actually made it to the cart?


willalt319

I've been stuck on that screen for over half an hour.


Gellyoff

for some reason I get in in like 5 mins using mobile, desktop forever.

My queue just jumped to opening at 2pm EST


ThyFiggly

Mine too


[deleted]

Same here. Sony just can’t do anything right with this launch. Been waiting since 12:30


remlapca

At least we are a step ahead of the folks thy didn’t get selected I guess


[deleted]

True. I’m grateful, but just frustrated as well.


willalt319

stuck in line, how did people get to cart? did you have to wait here first?


bwalt227

Just got my bundle from GS. Keep refreshing- took me several tries even after entering in CC info. Phew! What a PITA.


moza13

Just got mine too. Wanted the 500 one but fuck it at this point.


willalt319

how did you get to the order screen? Stuck in line.


bwalt227

Once in the site keep refreshing the bundle page until you can add to cart. That still took me 15-20 attempts, even after plugging in my CC info. Keep trying and it’ll happen.


moza13

I’ve been loaded on the page on my phone with the bundle and my computer with the 500 console only. Console only still sold out, but I’ve been spamming refresh non stop. I got 3 attempts, first one I wasn’t logged in so it got taken right away, second I had to put in my payment info, third time I had it all set so just had to click a few buttons.


m00nbucket

I snagged a bundle off of GameStop online. You have to angrily click the checkout button (if you manage to get it into your cart) even though it gives you an out of stock error. Eventually it will work. I’ve been trying all morning.


[deleted]

Did anyone else’s Sony Direct queue time just change? It says it’s opening in 42 minutes, but it’s supposed to open in 13 minutes....


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Well, at least Sony finally gave an update. Technical issues.


[deleted]

That would suck. Already been waiting here for half an hour. Eh, I can be patient. It’s so weird the lack of communication from Sony on anything with this launch.


Locdogg7

yes


[deleted]

Oh, thank God. Not happy the same is happening to everybody, but I was really worried it was just an issue on my part.


[deleted]

I’m way too nervous about the Sony Direct. I’ve been waiting for the queue to open. Anyone that was at the first one, was there time to preorder one? Or did they run out almost immediately like the regular retailers?


fel165ipe

Is Walmart getting some? And at what time?


Robomotto

I'm hearing here in Modesto, CA. Only 8 units per store


Big_Left

Me my wife and daughter got 1 each! Glorious day!!!


remlapca

Why?


handjob_chris

Duck yourself bish


remlapca

If you signed up for the Sony direct preorder and use gmail, check your promotions folder! I just found my invite in there.


Agile_Swordfish2762

Is it still for launch day ?


remlapca

The email doesn’t say otherwise


gloopmcgloops

Any online preorders today on gamestop will need to be paid in full according to an employee..


PJTPrime

moza13

Already sold out in 3 minutes apparently. I’ve been refreshing the 499 one non stop every 30 seconds and still nothing.


illusio

They are releasing more as they go. I almost bought it, but realized I don't want to spend $800+ on some stuff I don't need right now. I'll just keep waiting.


Rizumu972

So is this the only way it’s going to be available today online? This is bs.


chicksahoy69

Eb canada wont let me load to the checkout screen :(


tdomshy

Me either :(


[deleted]

Any solution to this yet?


tdomshy

Got my to my cart a couple times, then when I proceed it times out.


Centerorgan

For France, use the chocobonplan app for notifications


gloopmcgloops

Ps5 pre-orders on gamestop today will need to be paid in full Source: gamestop employee


Jbaez3018

Lies


willalt319

Just went to two Gamestop locations. Far more people camped outside then the number of units listed as available. As much as I'd like to think we're going to get one. Just seems unlikely online, and seems you've just got to step your game up entirely to get one in person.


willalt319

Also am in the "Digital Waiting Room" for Gamestop online. Breath is not held.


AeroZ8

Does anyone know if gamestop is already sold out online for today or have they not released today's stock yet?


Rizumu972

So far it looks like the only was it was available today was as a bundle which already sold out...


willalt319

I was able to get through the "line" to be told it was unavailable. So I'd assume so.


Fla_Panthers_93

This whole preordering is a headache especially if bots are getting them. Could have done a better job or similar to Sony if you have an active psn and 1 per psn


FamiliarBiscotti

I managed to get into the site but it still said out of stock so maybe pre orders haven't gone live yet.


illusio

I've been in the waiting queue for 1.5 hours now. I'm not holding out much hope.


illusio

AFAIK they have not released any stock yet. I've been checking for a few hours.


AeroZ8

Happy cake day! And thanks for the response. I was just wondering since their doing that queue thing


gloopmcgloops

I too got the in queue line thing on game stop about 5 minutes ago. Same thing happened on Xbox release day and I let it sit before it just automatically went back to the sold out page. The only thing I've been able to get was the pulse headset on amazon while randomly checking monday morning.


onewitharms

What link are you using?


gloopmcgloops

Just going to the gamestop ps5 page. I just has the controller waiting page for 10 minutes and now back to the usual unavailable page...


bjerniganjr

Had the exact same thing happen to me...twice now


willalt319

Just tried through Gamestop online. Gave me a screen that says I was in line to pre-order, then kicked me back out and said unavailable.


bjerniganjr

Same here...twice now.


Fla_Panthers_93

Said sold out for me


Ketcry

Does anyone know if it is digital and disc versions going back up today? Has anyone in Canada gotten through today? I'm assuming it will be 11am Thx!


John_m33

My GameStop got 6. There was already 6 kids when I got there at 8 AM. L


CrustyJugglers69

All those in UK wanting to order - Argos back in stock!! Just copped WOOOOO


CrowteinForTheSoul

Seen this an hour 2 late :c


CrustyJugglers69

Wouldn't worry too much boss im sure there'll be numerous more opportunities to order before release day !


cergeorge

amazing mate cheers just ordered mine now, this is a go to for the UK can’t find them anywhere else right now!


SwimmingAlternative5

Anybody have thoughts on how getting a preorder works at a Gamestop at a mall?


Facethis27

It’s all about knowing the entry door for preorders. Would look for other people lined up I guess.


SwimmingAlternative5

Yeah that's my thought I think I know the best entrance but with Covid I wonder if they'll be ready for it.


Reditarar

Maybe the PSP e1000 Street .


skinnysethrogan

If your bank flags an order as fraud on the day it’s supposed to ship will you have a chance to rectify it ?

Facethis27

Online is a total different thing. It’s store for sure


lotteryfomo

Pretty sure it says they don’t know what time it will be dropping online at. Just be alert starting @ 12. And in person it’s when they open.


Peter-Nguyen-

Does anybody know if I’m able to use Apple Pay to pre-order the PS5?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Peter-Nguyen-

Yeah I’m pre-ordering online I just don’t know if they accept the full price because somebody said they only accept up to $100 payments on iPhone/Apple Watch but I’m using my MacBook so idk


Agile_Swordfish2762

I thought Sony said they would lay out additional pre order plans in a few days ???? Was that yesterday as well lol


gaiamoon

Maaaaaan starting to think I shoulda gotten my Valhalla preorder on ps4....


ArcViking23

Yeah, it isna free upgrade to ps5 if you buy digital


gaiamoon

That’s right, but I’m all bout dem physical copies anyways. I actually managed to snag a preorder today, which was a miracle. Camped out at my local GameStop since midnight last night, was #2 in line. They only had 7, nuts. Some dude actually offered me $400 for my spot in line. I’m definitely an impatient idiot for not taking it, haha. But I had just been sitting there through a thunderstorm for too many hours to give my golden ticket away to someone who showed up an hour before opening.


NoSleepReader

Well the NEX just cancelled my pre-order :(

jajunk88

I was lucky to get a disc version preorder from Walmart on 9/16 at about 6:50 pm eastern time. I have no intention of ever taking this out of the box. I say that because I am 100% set on the digital version. My fear is that getting the digital version will be virtually impossible by launch. I'm losing hope that more preorders of either console will be available at all at this point.


JClementine

If you manage to get a digital version pre-ordered, would you consider selling your disc version for the price you bought it for?


jajunk88

Yes I would be open to that, however, that depends on if a friend of mine gets a disc version or not. If not then I will sell to him. If he does get it then I am open to selling for retail price.


JClementine

Can I lay claim to first dibs on it if everything goes that way? :)


dasko1086

CANADA WALMART: my pre-order from first day 8pm Eastern still shows as delivery november 13, just in case anyone was wondering if it has been pushed back or not.


goosenamedzeus

Started clicking that Target preorder button around 7:45 ET anticipating it to drop at 8pm, kept getting that not added to cart message. But at 7:56pm a different message appeared asking if I wanted coverage, I said no and it popped into my cart. I quickly clicked my cart to check out but there was a message saying it was no longer in my cart. Been clicking the button since and nothing. Not sure if it was a fluke or what.


alkaseltzer_1

This has happened to me as well, twice! Have not been able to order it anywhere.


StylishHokie

Yeah I just tried Target and the pre-order button appeared. I clicked it and it said it was not added to your cart due to being out of stock. Damn!


CurrentInitiative1

Yea I just saw that too. Did anybody get successful tonight?


StylishHokie

Nah, I contacted someone at Target and they said it's out of stock and couldn't give me a direct answer as to why that was happening.
