I’ve hit that and clicked on a few links and haven’t been sent back to queue yet.
Same here. But now I just hit the PS5 consoles link again, and it sent me back to the queue.

So let me get this straight, on Playstation's regular store website you can use AMEX cards to save/pay but on the "Direct" site they're listing everything except AMEX... What gives? I saved my Chase Visa card just in case on the PSX website, the direct one doesn't show what you have saved at the moment.. I want to avoid a problem later while trying to get the pro LE.

yeah, doesn't look like anything matters queue wise until 10AM EDT. That's when queue will open in earnest.
Yeah but if you join the queue at 10am ET you'll be in a large queue. Seems to me the goal is to time your queue to let you in as close to 10am (but no earlier) as possible. Which is freaking hilarious and a total cluster.

I could not get my payment method to save at all. So I gave up.

All gone, so much for "it's not gonna sell out at that price"

Just silly, and artificially increases demand due to the FOMO and when it comes back in stock it'll be another mad rush. No reason for Sony to play it this way. It's a PREORDER. You can't be out of stock of a PREORDER.

Could have gotten a "normal" PS5 pro, got greedy and aimed for the 30th anniversary ed.
Now i ain't got nothing.

It uses the same details as the Playstation Store & your PSN Account.
If you haven't got anything set up for some reason and the site won't let you set it up do it on the PlayStation or PSapp

Bah, got through the queue, and kept moving around pages to stay active, and it re-put me in the queue again with a 20 min wait.

It will only save on PS Direct if you have purchased something

What I did was add a standard controller into my basket, then go to checkout and input my address. Then close the checkout section. That way it will hold the delivery address as you still have something in your basket. Then when you're able to purchase the pro quickly delete the standard controller and voila you've saved a little time.

UK PlayStation direct both Limited and Pro editions pre orders are sold out completely now. So it took about 3 hours to sell out the pro in the UK, limited went in under 20 mins

It doesn't. At least in the US is doesn't. PS Direct doesn't talk to the PSN Account/PS Store page.
 
Lol so now you'll have to time it so the queue will let you in right at 10am ET? Or so that you'll at least be active during that te frame?

How long are people staying active for before it kicks them back to the queue?
