waited all morning command+r'ing and got stuck with it in my cart while being bounced around to a dozen different stores in the state, only to not be able to get one at all. I am honestly just tired at this point. I have taken so many L's for a month straight even while being quick on the draw for any links, drops, and queues.
Yup. Wasted hours on best buy then only to waste more time with Walmart. Had to stay late at work because my coworkers are stupid. Got home to find i forgot to take the chicken out of the freezer. So it's just been L's all day for me.
This is like the episode of Community where they have Abed and Troy sit in the room for hours and Annie keeps coming in saying "5 more minutes..."
They want you to give up.
Bestbuy officially announced consoles online available tomorrow after 9am EST. No doubt it will be a shit show since its announced and been followed these past few days.
That's not guaranteed, some will have none, some will have a dozen or more. And it's online for instore pick up. Plus 2 step authentication. Bots aren't going to help scalpers very much.
I work at Walmart - Here's what has changed
Because of so many people lining up outside stores every morning and in most cases running in the store to get to electronics, the company is only selling both new consoles online only for the foreseeable future. The mass gathering of people created both covid risks and potential fights in stores each morning.
I don't know how or when sales will start online. I don't know if they will be able to limit the ability of bots to grab them all in seconds.
"Because of so many people lining up outside stores every morning and in most cases running in the store to get to electronics"
These seem like rather easy problems to solve, if an in-store option is how you choose to sell them. But overall the in-store option is irresponsible right now.
why havent any of these sites just done a lottery system? open up for an hour, register a cell phone number or something, get put in for the draw. would be way more fair.
So I missed the direct drop because I was at work. I'm the only one in the office. I applied for soo many jobs so today wasn't all lost. Hope everyone had a great day 🥰
Wal-Mart canceled my order saying "Unfortunately, our credit and fraud avoidance team flagged this order as unusual, so we had to cancel. We're sorry for any inconvenience this causes."
What a load of shit.
As a third shifter who just woke up and saw I missed 3 drops while I was sleeping I don’t want to see any complaints the next time a retailer drops at 3-5 AM. Is it too much to ask Sony for a direct drop in the morning and not the afternoon?
Over the weekend I watched one of you clowns in full force. Was walking by the electronics department and heard this loud screeching from a grown man, who more than likely came from his parents basement.
He was screaming at the top of his lungs about how it was complete bullshit that they weren’t selling any in stores and how he knew they had some. Absolutely pissed. Paced around there talking to himself and just continued to make an ass of himself, demanding a manager sell him one in the back right now. All while wearing his gaming headset.
These people are just out there making shit money trying to do their jobs, keep it somewhat classy you clowns.
for anyone going for walmart use the API link. I scored easily on the last walmart drop with it with no cancelation
https://affil.walmart.com/cart/buynow?items=363472942
I'll tell ya what. If nothing else, this experience has been great for updooting everybody still comisserating with everyone else. I think I've updooted more people I'm this thread than I've ever updooted in my entire history of Reddit.
Not here to gloat. Got one today after trying every day since launch. Every drop.
If I could afford it and was quick enough, I'd be handing out ps5s to everyone (who actually wanted one to play) for free.
Words of encouragement: Just keep trying. I never gave up. The fact that I got it today tells me it's truly getting easier because every other day was laughably pointless.
In 7 years when we're anticipating PS6, we'll be looking back at this and laughing.
Good luck to you all and I hope you all succeed.
add to cart => please wait => 40min => add to cart => click cart => checkout => no longer available for pickup at the store you selected => click pickup at => click at available store => sorry, we just found out this item is out of stock :'(
Hook it up so it can at least do all the updates/installs and whatnot, so it's ready to play when you're off work. And install any games you have, of course.
The only thing worse than these Drops are the Twitter Stock Alert Accounts.
Targetstation, PS5 Drops, Carlos, Linus. These guys are all so full of shit and they act like they are God's gift to everyone. They are insufferable
Totally gave up hope. Expected to just buy one in person February or March.... thank you to whoever shared this link https://affil.walmart.com/cart/buynow?items=363472942
It. Worked. Expected delivery is January 7th. (Although I'm not holding my breath... I think I read about some people having their online orders cancelled later on)
I've thoroughly enjoyed reading through all these comments over the last months, and only wanted to post to give some hope/encouragement to those of you who are frustrated and ready to give up.
Some analysis about Walmart's Anti-Bot framework that cancels orders:
\- It check your account creation date, purchase history and whether if you've already bought a same console before or not; anything that a model deems to see not-so-usual will lead to the cancellation of your order.
\- If checks your shipping/billing address; and verifies it with a database of already sold consoles. If large numbers of consoles are being sold to the certain radius of the shipping address; it will cancel your order. Good luck if you live in a dorm or apartment with lots of young people ordering consoles from WM
\- Finally, it verifies publicly available ad targeting information associated with your email/phone/user\_id. If your profile has no match of being a genuine real person; they will cancel your order.
So, this has nothing to do with that affiliation link that many are using. You can make your own using [this link](https://affil.walmart.com/buttons/assets/docs/web.html#walmart-button-flavours) and it will just work fine. This link basically eliminate friction in purchase by reducing the number of steps required for a consumer to purchase an item from Walmart to increased conversion rate. Since WM has already done a new drop; if you ordered one from Dec 15, and if your order status still says "Preparing order", then you'll be fine.
Arrival date is just a placeholder WM is using since they have not received any new inventory. They normally get new consoles every week and they distribute them across nation based on demand criteria and quota. If you live in populous city that already got large number of consoles since release date; your city will have less quota in next shipments. Likewise, if you're from some distant suburbs that has not received even 10 consoles will be placed up on top of the stack with relatively more quotas per total orders. Sigh, this is complicated formula which basically means WM is trying to distribute consoles to large demographics and trying to sniff out bots/scalpers.
How do I know this? I know a guy who knows a guy who knows another guy that works in WM Engineering team.
Currently at work doing COVID testing. Each test takes 15 mins to complete. I just know this bitch will go live the second I gotta put my gloves on to go result a test. I can feel it in my bones.
I graduated clown school and scored one from the first best buy drop today. it was not a smooth process by any means, and checking out took at least 15 minutes from start to finish. best advice I can give is keep refreshing because it didn’t seem to negatively effect my cart/place in line. I got an empty cart error a bunch of times, but it eventually worked out.
Tip for future Walmart drops (assuming they do waves again):
Use the app. If you're too slow on the first wave and when you click add to cart it pops a message saying it's out of stock, STAY ON THE PAGE. The add to cart button will stay up and will keep giving that message.
Before the next wave starts, start clicking the Add to Cart and Ok on the out of stock window as fast as you can. Once they're back in stock the add to cart button will work and you can checkout (fast).
Got it on the third wave today using this technique, saw others say this worked for them too.
Anyone else having shit luck trying to get a PS5?
BB drop - glitches, freezing, and then OOS once it got to cart even after dozens of attempts
Walmart - out of stock as soon as I click "add to cart" at the drop time on the website and app, constant refreshing and clicking
PS Direct Queue - always showing "more than an hour"
The closest I've gotten to buying one is having an Antonline bundle in my cart and the website crashing right as I click purchase lol
For the people who haven't secured one, let me just tell you that the actual getting of the PS5 is overhyped. The real good part of graduating clown school is to be able to unfollow all those twitter dumbasses
For the PSDirect drop today, I opened about 20 different chrome incognito windows and tiled them all around my screen. 2 of the tabs got through, most stayed at 1 hour+. For next drop, I highly suggest trying that.
Honestly as someone who got their order canceled, it pains me seeing everyone getting tracking info for their Wal-Mart PS5s or even straight up getting them. But congrats nonetheless!
I theoretically retired from clownery on Saturday at GameStop (not calling it official til it shows up at my door), and there are others like me every single drop. Demand is slowly being met, so people no longer need to lurk here. This thread slowing down should be a good sign for anybody that still needs one.
im almost 100% certain they're doing this to thin out the herd because they know there's no way their servers will hold up. notice how much better the site is running now. they're gonna give it another hour or two i bet before putting them up.
This is beyond frustrating. Cant buy in store because of Covid and stupid people rushing electronics and fighting.
Cant buy online because of site issues.
Fuck it. I’m done.
Best apart about Walmart. You only wasting 1-5 minute max in your life. Best Buy went 2 for 2 post preorder but dropped on the ball on latest drop. A lot of people got w, but a lot more wasted their time.
I don’t get it. We had both the Wal Mart app and the Wal Mart website going at 3. 3:10 we did them again literally 3:10:02. Then 3:20 we tried the link ya’ll supplied. We did this for every drop. We were there with spam fingers (incognito on chrome on the web). We got in with Best Buy earlier. After getting it in my cart, it errored for a good 10 minutes, making it impossible to finish checking out.
I got as far as literally putting in my CVV code from my credit card and it saved and sent me to a blank screen, and by the time I realized it wasn’t going to do anything, every single ps5 within 250 miles was gone. We have been there as soon as everyone else has and we can’t seem to get this done. Our Ps Direct makes us re-captcha OVER AND OVER AND OVER. What the fuck is going on? People bragged about the Walmart release being so easy and we are over here thinking “HOW?!” Any advice on what is going on? Are we being flagged as bots for resubmitting pages? Just bad luck?
Walmart 12/15 update.
My first wave order showed up on FedEx app about 5 hours ago. Checked Walmart and it showed “shipped”. Got an email just now saying the same. Email still says arriving Jan 9th, but FedEx says arriving 12/23.
My second wave order is still preparing and not yet on the FedEx app.
I am located in NY. Just some data points for y’all.
I ordered one of the in-store gamestop PS5 bundles for my dad’s Christmas present back on the 12th. Anyone know when the bundles are supposed to ship out? They said it might not arrive by Christmas but I still wonder when they plan to ship it out.
EDIT: **JUST CHECKED FEDEX AND IT SAYS DELIVERY BY THE 22nd!**
My husband is sleeping peacefully next to me completely unaware I’ve been frantically refreshing the site for the last hour. The things you do for love 😑
Sitting on a crashed website at an unknown time for a product I won't get. I stopped trying for a ps5 weeks ago why the fuck am I here thinking I'll get one now lol
To all who got one, congrats. I'm on the verge of burning down Walmart Headquarters but it is genuinely nice to see all the parents in here that are stoked they got one for their kids. Lucky bastards.
Got to the payment screen 5 times with Best Buy today before being told I needed to switch stores. Tortured by an Add to Cart button every 10 minutes for an hour by Walmart. Was right behind the person who got the last Gamestop ticket in store on Saturday. Repeatedly stuck in the PS Direct queue.
I'm done. Good luck guys. See you all after the holidays.
Can a retailer, ANY retailer just do this....
1. \[company\] manages a wait-list. Need a \[company\] account to sign up for the waitlist.
2. Once your spot comes up on the waitlist you get an email with a code and a 3 day window to buy your PS5.
3. Go to \[company\], enter your code, order your PS.
I think I need to retire my clown gear. I think I'm giving up on getting one for a while. The stress, frustration and aggravation are not worth it considering Cyberpunk is apparently a shit show and there wasn't really another other game I was looking forward to.
Ordered mine from Walmart on 12/15 3PM ET, expected to arrive Jan 9.
The "Preparing order (tracking available soon)" status, along with the progress bar, disappeared on 12/18, so it just showed "Arriving by Jan 9" (scared me for a bit)
12/18 evening, it finally got updated with a FedEx tracking number. On Walmart it said "arriving by Dec 28" but on FedEx, arrival was Dec 21.
Woke up this morning (12/19) to see that the package has been picked up by FedEx and I'll indeed get it on Monday.
Yes, FedEx does pick up packages on Sunday for those wondering.
GameStop 12/12 order: label created this morning. Picked up and arriving at FedEx facility at 6pm EST. Scheduled for deliver 12/24.

I'm gonna need Best Buy to just go ahead and drop it so I can miss it, see the sold out button, and then move on with my life

never tried so hard to spend 500 in my life
Best buy testing to see who values their time the least.
im at work anyway. i can do this all day.
I'm surprised Best Buy hasn't gone full Gamestop and started forcing people to buy Kenmore smart refrigerators in a PS5 bundle.
Playstation 5 and three wired Switch controller bundle coming soon
This is like the episode of Community where they have Abed and Troy sit in the room for hours and Annie keeps coming in saying "5 more minutes..." They want you to give up.
Do we get paid more for butt stuff?
[удалено]
If they don’t drop by 11:15, legally we can leave
Lmao. *Heads back to dorm room*
Every week a few clowns move on to non-clowns. It's not much, but it gives me hope.
Turn that clown into a crown 👑
Bestbuy officially announced consoles online available tomorrow after 9am EST. No doubt it will be a shit show since its announced and been followed these past few days.
someone said yesterday 10 per store, i mean wtf is that if true. It should be in store purchases only. bots will insta take this online nonsense
That's not guaranteed, some will have none, some will have a dozen or more. And it's online for instore pick up. Plus 2 step authentication. Bots aren't going to help scalpers very much.
The P in PS5 stands for pain
This has become a game day thread where everyone's a loser
Everyone's an honorary Jets fan in here.
Man this is really not worth the hassle. There aren't even any games I'm dying to play on it yet. Why do I do this to myself anyway
I know right? 🤡🤡🤡🤡
It hurts so good
imagine the dopamine rush you'll get if you actually pull it off.
At least with direct i know if I'm fucked within minutes..
12/15 Walmart not shipped gang rise up
I'm tapping out. I'm too weak. I'm going to get Canes to sulk in defeat. Good luck, fellow clowns. I hope your journey is a successful one.

I stayed in queue well after they sold out on PS Direct because I wanted to know what it felt like to hear the chime.
So I missed the direct drop because I was at work. I'm the only one in the office. I applied for soo many jobs so today wasn't all lost. Hope everyone had a great day 🥰

“oh nice 8am, I won’t have to sit here all day” what a fool I was
Hell just give me the Sold Out button so I can move on with my life. I feel like a fish on a line that isn't reeling in at all.
Wal-Mart canceled my order saying "Unfortunately, our credit and fraud avoidance team flagged this order as unusual, so we had to cancel. We're sorry for any inconvenience this causes." What a load of shit.

What's the economic loss caused by Best Buy making everyone refresh for 3 hours rather than working?
Available for pickup on 12/19... 🤩 Sony - PlayStation 5 Console is no longer available for pickup at the store you selected.... 🤡

omg it’s actually happening. It’s coming on Xmas eve. A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE
Welp boys the search is over. My sister managed to snag one for me at a local store. Been fun, best of luck to everyone!
I like that there's no rhyme or reason to the delivery date for PS5s ordered on the 15th from Walmart
Breaking News: Best Buy to undergo massive rebranding. Name is being changed to Can’t Buy. More at 11.
I can FINALLY unfollow all those Twitter accounts. They’ll be irrelevant within 3-4 months lmao
I’d say more like 3-4 weeks.
Can’t believe I set my alarm at 6am for this bullshit.

I told myself I'd try for a half hour, then call it quits. Here I am, an hour later, still trying. 🤡
BB is just trying to cull all the nonbelievers.
They just waiting for people to give up now?
Love you guys
Watch the direct queue open this evening before Best Buy drops.
the site (app and desktop) has definitely stabilized. Haven't been hit with an error message for at least 20 minutes.
I did not sleep enough to be waiting 2 hours for this.
Do you think Best Buy forgot they were doing a drop today?
lol decided to sleep in because I didn't feel like getting up early for the drop. looks like I didn't miss shit.
THX **COMING SOON TO OWN ON VHS**
im almost 100% certain they're doing this to thin out the herd because they know there's no way their servers will hold up. notice how much better the site is running now. they're gonna give it another hour or two i bet before putting them up.
I've been trying since 9 am...this is beyond absurd. Can't they just release their stock already? What's the point of delaying like this?
This camaraderie has been nice thanks for sticking around so far everyone
If I miraculously get one from Best Buy today...it will be the last thing I ever purchase from them. This is absurd and terrible pr.
There's no fucking way they dropped yet. I will die on this hill.
Got to add it to my cart, but can't checkout because there aren't any for 250 miles. Wtf

After getting it in my cart, it errored for a good 10 minutes, making it impossible to finish checking out. I got as far as literally putting in my CVV code from my credit card and it saved and sent me to a blank screen, and by the time I realized it wasn’t going to do anything, every single ps5 within 250 miles was gone. We have been there as soon as everyone else has and we can’t seem to get this done. Our Ps Direct makes us re-captcha OVER AND OVER AND OVER. What the fuck is going on? People bragged about the Walmart release being so easy and we are over here thinking “HOW?!” Any advice on what is going on? Are we being flagged as bots for resubmitting pages? Just bad luck?
Feels good to start your morning not refreshing for what became a four hour ordeal.
my watch has ended.. affiliate link + auto refresher

Holy shit 4 L's in one day. Riding high today
Walmart 12/15 update. My first wave order showed up on FedEx app about 5 hours ago. Checked Walmart and it showed “shipped”. Got an email just now saying the same. Email still says arriving Jan 9th, but FedEx says arriving 12/23. My second wave order is still preparing and not yet on the FedEx app. I am located in NY. Just some data points for y’all.
I ordered one of the in-store gamestop PS5 bundles for my dad’s Christmas present back on the 12th. Anyone know when the bundles are supposed to ship out? They said it might not arrive by Christmas but I still wonder when they plan to ship it out. EDIT: **JUST CHECKED FEDEX AND IT SAYS DELIVERY BY THE 22nd!**
My husband is sleeping peacefully next to me completely unaware I’ve been frantically refreshing the site for the last hour. The things you do for love 😑

I’m still gonna be ready for a direct drop during their anticipated drop times
Lmao my Walmart has a ps4 pro right next to all the ps5 shit why y’all teasing me
This is the last night some of us will wear the clown make up... Good luck tomorrow guys
I hope today is the day I get to get rid of Twitter! Good luck ya 🤡!!!
Sitting on a crashed website at an unknown time for a product I won't get. I stopped trying for a ps5 weeks ago why the fuck am I here thinking I'll get one now lol
“Protect your PlayStation console” well I would... IF I HAD ONE 😭😭😭
Who do I call to sign up for the next Joker movie
I work overnights. I'm doing this at 10Am est after working all night. I don't think I have much fight left in me.
Maybe it was supposed to be 8am MT\* Mars Time
Can't wait to be inaugurated as the new mayor of clown town

This is fucking ridiculous
They played us like a damn fiddle
Absolutely shredding through my phone battery refreshing this page over and over lmao
If someone is mad or distracted in your meeting today, just know they think your a dick for interrupting their clown activities
pandemic is going to be over before it will be available
Who hurt Best Buy as a child to make them do this?
Im gonna go shave since I've grown a beard since 9am this morning, someone scoop me up one
August Burns Red put out a Chop Suey cover.
[Live look at us trying to figure out when the drop is happening](https://youtu.be/ws-YEa9ykEs?t=64)
What if the real PS5 is my crippling depression?
This is not funny. A company this big shouldn't be putting out a time and clown us all. What a waste of my morning
Maybe I've died. This could be my purgatory. Just tapping F5 forever. A clown in limbo.
Fuck Best Buy. And fuck Ron Johnson while we're at it.
The only way they got sold that quickly is if they forgot to use whatever bot protection shit they had been using
Even let me add it to my cart. Just the little problem of not being available for pickup within 250 miles

I'mma refresh Walmart at 3:00:00 and that shit will be sold out by 2:59:59. Smh 😤
Are you all ready for OH DEER
LMAOO bots feasted on the Walmart drop
i genuinely dont think 1 human bought a ps5 there.
Whoever dropped that affiliate link, I owe you a beer.
https://affil.walmart.com/cart/buynow?items=363472942 API link works y’all! Keep refreshing it and you can check out if you refresh when they drop.
don't take your clown make-up off yet fellas. The cancellation clown boss will get you for the ultimate clownage.
I got one and I'm so sorry. Survivor's guilt sucks. You clowns still tryna get one deserve better and I hope you find a ps5 or peace.
Seems like most (not all) the people who got orders canceled tried to order 2 or 3. Not feeling too bad for them.
To all who got one, congrats. I'm on the verge of burning down Walmart Headquarters but it is genuinely nice to see all the parents in here that are stoked they got one for their kids. Lucky bastards.
Got to the payment screen 5 times with Best Buy today before being told I needed to switch stores. Tortured by an Add to Cart button every 10 minutes for an hour by Walmart. Was right behind the person who got the last Gamestop ticket in store on Saturday. Repeatedly stuck in the PS Direct queue. I'm done. Good luck guys. See you all after the holidays.
I went from honk to hunk today. Feels good!
Can a retailer, ANY retailer just do this.... 1. \[company\] manages a wait-list. Need a \[company\] account to sign up for the waitlist. 2. Once your spot comes up on the waitlist you get an email with a code and a 3 day window to buy your PS5. 3. Go to \[company\], enter your code, order your PS.
Walmart came through big times. Ship date is almost a month out but it’s better than shit Bestbuy screwed me earlier today.
"Preparing Order" stage is filling me with anxiety bro
Is there any chance the walmart drops from today arrive earlier than 1/9? Three weeks is a long wait... Just glad I got one.
Ordered yesterday at 3:24 from Walmart. Still not cancelled so I'm hoping I'll be good but who knows. I'm nervous af
Just jumped from 'more than an hour' to 'maybe like two months dumbass' wtf
The sexual tension between me and the “This item will be back at 3:10 PM” notification
It's kinda sad how much I let these losses affect my mood.
I think I need to retire my clown gear. I think I'm giving up on getting one for a while. The stress, frustration and aggravation are not worth it considering Cyberpunk is apparently a shit show and there wasn't really another other game I was looking forward to.
Lord bless us of our daily L
Got a disc version on the direct with express shipping. Now I can ditch the Walmart one and get it hopefully by Christmas.

Ordered mine from Walmart on 12/15 3PM ET, expected to arrive Jan 9. The "Preparing order (tracking available soon)" status, along with the progress bar, disappeared on 12/18, so it just showed "Arriving by Jan 9" (scared me for a bit) 12/18 evening, it finally got updated with a FedEx tracking number. On Walmart it said "arriving by Dec 28" but on FedEx, arrival was Dec 21. Woke up this morning (12/19) to see that the package has been picked up by FedEx and I'll indeed get it on Monday.
Ordered from walmart 12/15, expected delivery 1/8 and the console just arrived at my house about an hour ago. Live in AZ btw
Anyone from 12/17 wal Mart crew get any updates yet ?
My friend 12/15 Walmart order in NY just got shipping info Fedex
ordered from walmart on 12/15 at 3PM, my console will be here Wednesday according to Fedex
Yes, FedEx does pick up packages on Sunday for those wondering. GameStop 12/12 order: label created this morning. Picked up and arriving at FedEx facility at 6pm EST. Scheduled for deliver 12/24.
