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.

UK is going on lockdown this week so that's going to be a whole other issue for pickup and possible deliveries not happening.

Amazon always do this. You'd have to be a clown to pre-order a PS5 with them and expect them to deliver it day one. They rarely deliver games on time. They're unreliable. If you want a reliable service for consoles, use a company whose bread and butter is actually video games i.e. gamestop, GAME, Shopto, thegamecollection, etc.

Definitely not Amazon for consoles. If Shopto say you're getting it day one, it's nailed on. Cancel Amazon and don't worry about it.

I tried to warn y'all. Never ever use Amazon for consoles.

FedEx just updated to say my Nov 10 delivery date from Microsoft should arrive on by. Oh well, at least it's Masters week I guess 🙃🙄☹️
 
Finally got an update from amazon canada

Your new estimated delivery date is:
Friday, November 13, 2020 - Tuesday, November 17, 2020

Oh well, lets see if the ps5 comes thursday
 
Best Buy let me know a week ahead that my controller was on its way, and it came in the day it was planned, Oct 30th

However, aside from the fact that they took my money early last week, there's absolutely no activity whatsoever on my console order, 2 days before launch

When I chatted with some BB customer service dude about it, I had the general bullshit PC answer, sooooo...

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

This gives me hope that my ps5 with FedEx that says hold until 11-12, will indeed arrive a day or so 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?

Same thing here...my charge was pending on Friday and it also shipped with Playstation Direct. My pending disappeared over the weekend and is still not posted to my account. It should hit tonight around 10pm or so depending on your bank...then again, maybe we are getting it for free for being loyal plus members 😂
 
Brace yourselves. Looks like Best Buy Canada fucked up. I'm seeing a bunch of people pissed off at their notification (seeing Nov 16th, Nov 18th and even saying Nov 20th as ETA)

While mine's still In Progress...

At least you two got word from Amazon. I'm still waiting for them like the cuck I am. WTF Amazon, just tell me if it's coming or if it's delayed. I don't care which, just tell me already.

Not only am I getting mine I changed shipping addresses just last week.

Amazon haven't charged me and the XSX still hasn't been despatched. But latest arrival time brought forward to 8pm tomorrow. They'd better not fuck me!

Fuck Sony I was hurt I didn't get that email...
Why do think you got one if I may ask?
What do you think the criteria was?

I have been a plus member since the beginning, and I also have an extensive playstation store purchase history, and at the time also had ps now. I have 148 platinum trophies too, if that helped or not I am unsure. It is probably because the time I have had plus and the money I have spent on the store if I had to guess.
 
My ps5 shipped from Sony Mexico 3 hour ago, yay!! It says it will be delivered on the 12 but DHL will have my ps5 in my city by tomorrow, so who knows, maybe I'll get it earlier.
 
im getting pissed off seeing all these 2nd wave walmart preorders getting fed ex labels meanwhile i'v gotten nothing but a possible delay email as a first wave person

I knew Amazon was fucked, their preorders were available for WAY too long (many time longer than any other retailers).

Not getting the console at launch sucks but on the bright side at least you got a pre-order in which means you will get it sometime this year.

Just think about all the people who couldn't get a pre-order in, especially PS5 fans who didn't even get a fair chance to pre-order because of sony's fumble. They will most likely not get a console this year and maybe not until march 2021.

I will be a happy man if I can at least get one of these consoles this year because I understand how limited supply is for both companies right now.

Its completely random

we'll see what happens tomorrow ig. that's when walmart said it would ship for me.. but I was told that before the "possible 1 to 2" day delay email

Honestly, I don't think they have a clue. They got 1 million boxes to ship, are probably understaffed and hoping it just disappears.

Too true. These poor bastards are just trying to do their job and a thousand people are calling them every two minutes telling them how incompetent they are and that if they don't receive their console on launch day they're going burn down their warehouse and then commit suicide.
Have a little perspective people.

He has 148 platinums... As much money as I spend I don't think I even have 148 games including plus games since ps4 launch.

Ive been a PS+ member before there was a PS+, owned every PS console, and I just don't chase trophies. I also don't usually buy digital. I never get those random credits for store or anything and I have promotions turned on.

It may be random, but it's never randomly me. Lol.
