So is that all she wrote? Sold out everywhere?

Best heckin Buy you son of a gun

 

[sixamp]

This is what the Microsoft store was doing to me

 

[quickwhips]

i didn't get one guys. I failed. I hope they get more in stock soon.

 

[DerFuggler]

Almost got one from the MS store, but got stuck in an infinite basket screen. Fuck this. Amazon Canada is just not posting the link.

Same, but I managed to get one. Had to reload during checkout twice.

 

[MatrixReloaded101]

That Smile link told me it was purchasing off someone's gift list. Might want to check your orders.

I placed mine through the main link instead.

.....

Says it's shipping to my address so I think it's fine

I am getting the same message so I guess my order should be good.

Try Amazon. I got one there and some others have had good luck with them.

Looks sold out to me.

Amazon never opened up preorders for the Series S...

Anyway, I give up. I was going to buy the S as a gift, but oh well.

 

[Nikana]

Still have one in my cart at BB but it wont let me check out.

 

[CatLady]

Pretty much. Plus I'm thinking a lot of scalpers are going to get cold feet around the beginning of November and that's going to loosen up supply quite a bit. Looks like I'm going to try just driving down to BestBuy on release day to get one.(No luck with any online order.)

I hope there is a shit ton available and the low-life scalpers end up having to sell at a loss.

 

[Poop!]

I'm on BB and it won't let me put my credit card info in.

They are popping up on MS store

 

[Nerd Strangler]

Probably be be coming back in stock at various places as bots get their orders cancelled and people change their minds. Wouldn't give up yet.

[MISTER INVEIGLER]

Good job for MS at least giving me a chance to preorder.

I had absolutely no chance with PS5 complete randomness.

 

[Nikana]

Maybe they think you're CIA?

 

[DigitalScrap]

Oh well. I had a conference call that I actually had to run, so I couldn't begin to try until noon. No luck anywhere, so I'll wait until they come back in stock somewhere.

I know Amazon usually reopens several times during pre-order day as they know what allocations look like. So we'll see.

if not, I'm fine with just picking one up later.

 

[JLMC469]

Walmart, BB, Amazon, Gamestop...all gone.

MS store isn't working properly.

 

[Nerd Strangler]

Just be patient, and let it load. Had that too.

 

[John Mullins]

So the cheapo isn't getting much love?

Thought that was going to save Xbox?

 

[CatLady]

Gutted that MS managed to screw this up and allow bots to scoop up practically everything. Especially after their stupid jab at Sony's preorders.

Maybe they referring to their own site, while it's buggy and crashing under load they limited sales to 1 per person and people (me included ) were able to get a console there. I don't really know what either Sony or MS could do to control how other retailers control preorders.

 

[Night.Ninja]

Plenty on time until November

 

[CAB_Life]

AMAZON.CA IS LIVE NOW GOGOGOGO!!!

(Got mine.)

[kingwingin]

Got one on lock down from Microsoft store. First it kept giving me an error saying it can't ship to my country, site crashed for a bit but when it came back online everything was golden

 

[NoMoChokeSJ]

I was able to pre order an s off of MS store a couple min ago.

 

[Bladed Thesis]

That's the loading screen. Gotta wait it out, it is loading the address information but the servers were slow.

 

[McHuj]

Ordered an X. I'll say this, the $70 price on next-gen games has me re-evaluating whether I do want to subscribe to gamepass. It's looking like a better and better deal.

 

[Nester99]

AMAZON.CA IS LIVE NOW GOGOGOGO!!!

(Got mine.)

Thanks buddy,

Got one.

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

What a gigantic shitshow these console preorders were lol

 

[Bladed Thesis]

Because casual adopters are waiting to buy new products the minute they release for preorder?

Right.

 

[dolabla]

Don't think the Best Buy site is ever going to work. Will keep trying, but glad I was able to at least get an order in on amazon just in case.

 

[CatLady]

This is what the Xbox store did to me after finally getting one in the cart

That happened t me a bunch of times.

 

[dV8tR]

Success at last @ MS Store !

 

[M.W.]

I went back to the MS store, the X is still in my cart but it gives me an error when trying to checkout (which i can finally do). I assume they are sold out.

 

[Classicrockfan]

I was going to cancel my amazon order but bestbuy is too fucked up so I'll keep it and the 2 day delivery fee wanted the free release date delivery but oh well.

 

[sixamp]

NOW MS SITE SAYS UNABLE TO PURCHASE ORDER AT THIS TIME

 

[Xaero Gravity]

Maybe they referring to their own site, while it's buggy and crashing under load they limited sales to 1 per person and people (me included ) were able to get a console there. I don't really know what either Sony or MS could do to control how other retailers control preorders.

I think a captcha could at least down bots a bit. Luckily Amazon.ca finally put it up so I was able to get one. Still a shit show all around

 

[SuoGrey]

Got an X from Amazon

 

[dolabla]

Best Buy, lol. Come the fuck on

Sorry, we're having a system issue, but it should only be temporary.
Please wait a little while before trying again.

Guess I will have to cross my fingers on my Amazon order but I fully do not trust it.

 

[Sleepwalker]

Amazon wins. This was way more stressful than the PS5 one for me.

[cireza]

Pre-order secured

 

[MatrixReloaded101]

Same here... this was a complete mess.

I am just fortune that I got a amazon order in
