Walmart just shipped my Series X via FedEx. I got a delayed message last week but it still said it would deliver by the 12th. The FedEx tracking says it will be delivered by the 16th. Luckily, Amazon has the date for the Series X I ordered from them as being delivered tomorrow.
 
In case helpful (mentally) to those waiting on their XSX from Target (I'm not):



So, shipping label created earlier, shipped today, arrives one day late. I'd be alright with one day late at this point.


Confirmed. Target just updated my order to 11/11.
 
My Walmart Series X was saying "preparing to ship" up until this morning. But now it says it shipped Saturday and is 10 miles away at the fed ex facility. Assume I'll get it tonight or tomorrow.
 
Uhhh...my Walmart order said my Series X would be delivered on the 12th and said "preparing order" last time I checked then I received an email saying it was delivered.

If you ordered from Walmart be on the look out you never know, it might show up.
 
Confirmed. Target just updated my order to 11/11.

Now, if you create a FedEx account, you should be able to confirm the proper status before even their site updates status.

I've been watching the XBOX Series X Target Pre orders. Seems they started processing stuff within the last several hours and shipping via FedEx, arriving for some one day after launch. If PS5 follows suit, they would ship around now on the 11th and arrive sometime on the 13th. That's hopeful for those of us in the Target PS5 boat.
 
As an update regarding my XBX order from Amazon. I live literally 5-10 from a fulfillment facility but my XBX shipped from Macon, GA. I live in central Florida.

PS5 charge dock arrives tomorrow
PS5 arrives Thurs by 8 on Amazon

Target- no update
 
UK, Shopto
Just changed to
Processing

How did you find out this information. I pre-ordered a ps5 from Walmart and I have no status update or tracking number yet.
Check the app (or the website) and look at the details of your order.
Xbox status just updated with a FedEx number for me. (Ps5's still in limbo)

Xbox reddit is full of people with no update at all on their amazon preorders, with Customer Service telling them everything from "We will ship it to you once we get it" to estimated delivery times ranging from a week to early next year. Amazon clearly dropped the ball here.

Time to start looking at which stores will have them available to order to pick up tomorrow. I've heard Microcenters are getting them in for in-store purchase only and heavily considering going there super early and waiting.

Ouch, well.... there it is. At least now we know to try out luck w/ other retailers tomorrow.
 
Got an email confirmation Friday that my PS5 will be shipping this week and will get tracking details when it ships. So close I can feel the haptic feedback!!!

That sucks. Amazon dropped the ball this launch after really smooth PS4 preorders last time around. The preorders didn't go up at the right time and now this.
 
Very strangely, I got shipping confirmation (it's in NJ now) and final invoice and they charged my card . Then put they money back? I called bank and asked if it was declined and she said no she doesn't even see the transaction and if it was declined she'd see a security note . But nothing . Ummm...
Who's the outlet? It's not uncommon that a pending charge posts, albeit it's nothing more than a test by the retailer and serves as a hold against your credit limit without an actual transaction occurring.
Hopefully it works out for you. If gamers don't get their consoles on release day, the election results will pail in comparison to the hell that will be unleashed on the net.
Received my email, best part is it's literally sitting in the warehouse about 10 miles away and awaiting the scheduled delivery date. Now I gotta figure out how to coax them into giving it to me early....

Sony direct itself . that's what the bank said to . Thing that's confusing me a bit is that Sony said they would charge when shipped, it shipped last week and is just sitting in NJ so I'm like umm..well when?

Good question. I'm in the same boat, the shipment has processed but no charge has been made.

From my understanding .. Sony Direct shipments through FedEx are Future Shipment, but should arrive on launch date.
 
Prediction: We won't see any PS5 movement on Target orders until Wednesday.
Probably not. It's fine though, if mine arrives at any point before the 18th I'll be excited.

I've got Thanksgiving holiday starting on the 20th so if it can arrive by then I won't complain.
 
Payed GAME a tenner for postage on my XBSX preorder and it won't arrive until Wednesday. Argos were two days late on my Quest 2 preorder and they have my PS5 so I'm not holding out much hope to get that on the UK release date.

This is true. Future shipment for the 12th. Mine shipped Friday but has been sitting in New Jersey since then. I expect it will move tomorrow night and be at my local facility on Wednesday, and on a truck Thursday morning. I will update on this thread when I see movement.
 
It is bad.
I was getting xsex today but amazon payment failed (changed credit card after psn account was stolen) I fixed it before 1h had passed.
And now the eta is the 17th or 18th
Ps5 is end of the month...

Same here, but having to see a bunch of people talking about how awesome Demon's Souls is will likely prove to be too much for me to handle. I'll have to quit GAF for a little bit.
 
Wife said my Series X showed up at the house, i'll be home in like 2 hours. Interesting shit is the Fedex label from Microsoft said hold until 11/10, yet they still dropped it off today and I aint complaining

PS5 is paid off and waiting Thursday morning @ 10am for the pick up at my gamestop thats down the street..wish they would let us grab it early since i already have sack boy, demon souls, and spiderman preordered.

The other 2 PS5's and extra Series X we got for my brother in law, and my older brother @ Amazon are coming this week too, with the Xbox Series X already charged and shipped. Guessing the Amazon PS5 will charge tuesday or wednesday
 
Just got this from Amazon:

Fml and everything in between... I pre-ordered 30 minutes after pre-orders went live... FUCK
 
fuck, that they actually only now tell people that their system will be that late...

I'm so glad that mine is sent out.

seems that this is specifically a north american issue tho.
