I preordered a disk version for myself, if I could have ordered another I would have gotten one for my brother, but alas, limited to one.

 

[Barakov]

I wanted a disk version but couldn't pre-order one.

 

[Darko]

1 disk from amazon and 1 from best buy

Old fashioned is camping out at the local electronics store for days before console launch. Then the mad rush to pick up a console when the store opens, fighting your way through hordes of people.
THIS makes you a man.

Makes you a dumbass

 

[Spaceman292]

I'm judging everyone who bought more than one. Juuuudge

 

[PsyEd]

I always get 2....I have on in the living room and other in the man cave. Same will happen for XsX

 

[Xenon]

Just one, I never bought a pro, so this is kinda more of PS Pro kinda thing for me. I just wish Sony was more clear on BC.

Two - one backup in case the first order (with Very, whom I do not really trust with these things) falls through. Will cancel whichever ships last, or failing that sell it at cost to anyone who wants it.

 

[Geki-D]

One, though I've got a few alerts so I'll grab a second if I can just because I don't fully trust only having one preorder. It says it'll ship 19/11 but I don't doubt it impossible to get an e-mail a day before saying that they can't make it. Wouldn't mind another just to have my pick, then I'll cancel when the other looks like it'll ship.

 

[Bo_Hazem]

Tried to preorder in many places, but here they force you to pay full price to secure one in the shop. But they guarantee you 100% getting it in 19-Nov. Good way to avoid bots and empty multi preorders:

Got PS5 + Pulse 3D, my friend paid for me for now until 5 days when I get my salary, haha!

1 OMR = $2.6 USD

 

[MH3M3D]

This made me laugh. Have you done this before with success?

Nope, but its still a 0-risk investment. Either you sell it higher online or return it to the store unopened and get your money back.
I need some extra cash to buy like 4 games at once and those new PS5 prices aint cheap.

 

[Kupfer]

So, two of my three pre-orders have already been cancelled because the dealers don't get enough consoles. This is exciting.

 

[LordCBH]

673. 672 of them are on eBay. (Just one. Fuck scalpers.)

 

[turtlepowa]

This made me laugh. Have you done this before with success?

It's super easy. Let's say a friend of mine paid nothing for his PS4/XB1 and X thanks to PS4 and the 500 Million Limited Edition.

 

[Razzy-]

Got 3 sets of em. All for the fam. Nearly missed out cause the damn online store webpage didn't load.

 

[nowhat]

I'm not judging either - but to those that replied 5 (or over), I expect to see a "I have five PS5s" video on launch day, otherwise you have failed.

 

[SlimySnake]

3 but one is backup, the other is for my brother who wasnt able to get a preorder.

i might sell the backup on ebay if they are going for a $1000, but i hate selling stuff on ebay with ebay and paypal taking separate cuts, the shipping costs and the time spent going to the post office. eh, i will likely just end up returning it or selling it to my friends or cousins at cost.

 

[Garani]

One, and 3 days later the shop decided to cancel my order.

So should I say none probably?

 

[Kupfer]

There was a second wave here this morning and I was able to preorder another diskversion.
So, from 3 preorders in the first wave to 1 preorder after cancellations to 2 preorders today. This is fun somehow.

 

[T-Cake]

None. Even though I've been waiting 87 years, I feel like I'm not bothered now. Waiting too long and the enthusiasm has drained away as we get closer to launch.

2

One for me and one to sell. However if the selling price is way above retail price I may be tempted to sell both and just get one in January.
