I woke up at 5am and preorders where life for Amazon Germany. I think they were up since 1am. I could preorder without problems and could even fuck about with some promecodes. Shame though that I couldn't use my Amazon points. Now they are sold out 😅

Is 80 Euros a Game confirmed? That´s 94 USD (With VAT but still.....)
Whats the general VAT in the US like 10%. Means. 77$ for the US, 94$ for EU. Ahm? what?

Oh well, I give up. Neither ps5 or xbox isn't too hot anyway and if Sony doesn't want my money, I'll go with Xbox instead.
 
Just received the Sony invite email. They have a certain time for you to pre order starting Friday at 10am PT. The URL they give you can't be used by another without you specifically being locked out. Everybody check your emails, for a painless order. Good luck!

You could just wait a few months, lauch games aren´t uber hot anyways. Now that no hard genereration cuts exist anymore anyways. Ah well, but when i wanna buy a PS5 i won´t buy a Series X just becouse i have to wait a few weeks longer.

I'm up super early here in UK to try snag a pre-order and I better receive this email as they've sold out instantly looking at other countries.

I'm feeling too old to play this game of trying to fight others to secure one lol
 
Just checked the CAD price.

Disappointing.


$629 and $499.

The Xbox is the same price as the USD one.
Sony has zero incentive to take a hit for the region. They could just bring that stock elsewhere instead of pricing it that way.

So I have 2 PS5s preordered (Best Buy.ca & Amazon.ca). I'm prime on Amazon; would that be my safest bet to receive it on Nov 12?

Also, should I try my luck at scalping one of my preorders? lol, there's so many listings of people doing that
 
Just picked the full version ps5 up at BEST BUY.(US) What a shit show that website has been all night. They should be ashamed.
 
Secured BB order.

2 hours.
50 clicks to get to 'continue to payment'
Hundreds of clicks, 2 site crashes, and one complete restart to get to enter info.
Probably another 200 clicks and one site crash [i hit back and luckily skipped to finalize order page] get the order to process.
2 hours or so, easy.

But order just went through.
 
Man, I've been trying to order one at Best Buy for two and a half hours with no luck, yet you and several others have been able to do so. WTf?!
Oh man yea, i was right there with you with the stupid payment wall sever bombing non stop. I opened up multiple different browsers, logged into my accounts and then soon as I would get enter payment confirmation, wil keep spamming this till it gets to the next screen and so farth. It doesn't alway work but i just managed to get lucky that i got to choose my financing choice and then submit the order. It actually submitted after a few tries but it did go through and now i got my order confirmation email.

I just want to add, that felt like pure bladestone levels of bulllllllshit. But i guess i got a platinum for my effort.
 
Some how my Best Buy preorder finally went through after trying for 2.5 hours. Hopefully it doesn't get cancelled. Keep at it friends.
 
Scored another disc version for my brother from BestBuy. I had to change my payment type to PayPal. I think there's just too much tango going on between BestBuy and their card processor while their server is being hammered. Offloading that to PayPal seems to have done the trick for me, although I had to press the payment button several times so maybe it's just luck.
 
Just got mine from bestbuy using my bestbuy card ,I still have my amazon order aswell might cancel the amazon order in a couple days to see if my bestbuy order doesn't get Cancelled.

The Xbox is the same price as the USD one.

Finland got fucked up as always on electronics

it should be 499€ and 399€. but it seems to be 529€ and 429€ which translates into 629 USD and 505 USD

I guess that is the price to pay to live in safe country without homeless gangs to rob my brand new ps5 when I carry it home :messenger_beaming:
