Got Demon's Souls and CoD from shopto today. They sent them with DPD wierdly rather than royal mail.

But it's happening boys, not long left now.
 
Btw shopto sent me an email 3 days ago saying:


We would like to inform you that your order has now reached our warehouse! We will soon package your order, ready for the next collection.
You will be notified shortly when your order is packed and ready to go! Unfortunately from now we will not be able to cancel your order!

Hey Argos GAF - your DPD tracking number, shouldn't it be alpha-numeric? It's 10 numbers, I'm sure there's more for DPD reference numbers.

Amazon has lost mine, but are completely uninterested in giving me any kind of update or anything. The package was delivered to a warehouse on the other side of the country by "mistake" and now completely gone missing after 4 days. I was confirmed via phone call that I wasn't delayed and had a shipment planned for the 10th.

Stop apologizing to me and look into it! Horrible service.

They also sent a text saying you can only track it on the 19th, but yeah I tried tracking with the number they gave and it doesn't work.

Same here. Am not concerned yet maybe that’s the consignment number passed to DPD and we’ll get a full tracking version Wednesday or something. I was hoping to see a usual ‘we’ve got your parcel’ Wednesday at the latest to be honest with you. Wait and see I suppose.

Five more days!!!

So my bro pre-ordered a PS5 from ShopTo and a Pulse 3D headset back when we had the original reveal.

They cancelled the PS5 and denied that there was ever a pre-order. He later cancelled the headset, at least 2 months ago.

Now he's been sent the headset and charged for it. Wtf, kind of trash.

They did the same with me, I registered interest in the charging station which I cancelled then suddenly got it yesterday. Anybody had the same?

All I've ordered is the charging station from Shopto.. and it still hasn't despatched 🙈

smyths charged me for ps5 this morning saying dpd will have it in the next 24 hours. i also have the option on dpd app to deliver my console on another day and it gives me the earliest on tuesday 17th. did anyone do this with an xbox and it came earlier?
 
Just crumbled and brought Dirt 5 as well. Seems enough mindless fun to pop on for half an hour bursts. Anyone played it? The reviews are mixed to say the least, but most just seem to complain its not dirt rally, which isn't really a complaint tbh.

I just bought a Sabrent 2tb NVME for £150 on ebay brand new. Theres some great deals there at the moment. Going to put it in a 15 pound case and store my PS4 games on it (which run as fast as the Internal PS5 would run them, give or take a few seconds).
 
Got my pre order with VERY.

They sent my Spider-Man MM on the 12th as expected.
Console on schedule for the 19th but scared checking the order to muchas Sod’s law I’ll jab the “cancel” button and be gutted 😂😭😂

Yeah little update from Smyths and Shopto.

Smyths processed payment on Sat morning and have provided a DPD tracking code which I swiftly upgraded to morning 8.30 delivery. This console is for a friend but if it turns up earlier I'll nab it.

Shopto is my actual order and have a situation where the ultimate Spider Man edition has been bundled in with the console however I Haven't recieved the game as of yet, which is a worry. The order is sat in my orders and processing...hoping they confirm dispatch tomorrow and I can upgrade the delivery on that one also.

Anyone have any experience with the upgrade option maybe on XSX orders?

Not much news from Curry’s yet either, but as you guys say, probably won’t hear much until Tuesday at least. Fingers crossed!
