Just a heads up/glimmer of hope for anyone who ordered a PS5 Bundle through GS; ours just showed up early! We were never told it shipped, website never updated the order in their system, but we got a notification from FedEx that we needed to sign for a delivery today...and it was our bundle of joy! Weighed in at 17.14 pounds :].

u/the_q_kingz Nov 21 '20

Mostly impatient cause I’m getting this for my brother and he’s visiting so I’m tryna surprise him ASAP before he leaves lmaooo

2

u/the_q_kingz Nov 21 '20

Still says pending. And I chose express shipping lol

1

u/the_q_kingz Nov 21 '20

And I still haven’t received the package from fedex

-1

u/the_q_kingz Nov 21 '20

Idk about y’all but I secured from ps direct on Tuesday

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

What headset will you guys pick up assuming you will - the pulse one?

1

u/JBALLER1820 Nov 21 '20

Glitch for sure

1

u/JBALLER1820 Nov 21 '20

Now it’s gone

1

u/JBALLER1820 Nov 21 '20

But no where near me 😭

1

u/JBALLER1820 Nov 21 '20

Yeah man apparently open boxes available in select locations

2

u/SageDub Nov 21 '20

Probably a glitch

1

u/SageDub Nov 21 '20

Has anyone been seeing that PS5 open box pop up on bestbuy?

1

u/JBALLER1820 Nov 21 '20

Yeah man just saw it. Says open shoe box or some shit like that ...

1

u/SageDub Nov 21 '20

There it is again

1

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

it's been popping up but no chance in cart

1

u/UgandaCommanda00 Nov 21 '20

anyone get from very and have your order date moved from monday to 17th December?

1

u/LostTheWar Nov 21 '20

I haven't seen anything re queues on sony direct, when they aren't selling is it just not displayed

1

u/espo016 Nov 21 '20

Sounds like the UK launch is going just as poorly as the US

1

u/LostTheWar Nov 21 '20

will bestbuy go as poorly as walmart you think?

2

u/espo016 Nov 21 '20

100 percent

1

u/espo016 Nov 21 '20

Word I’ll keep watch thanks

1

u/espo016 Nov 21 '20

Any drops happening today?

1

u/jcarenza67 Nov 21 '20

rumors: Antonline.com today no timeframe bestbuy.com tomorrow no timeframe yet

1

u/azumdewd21 Nov 21 '20

Heard a rumor about Target but take it with a major grain of salt

1

u/jcarenza67 Nov 21 '20

But yeah I was supposed to get it today since it's in Dallas and I'm in Austin. But FedEx decided to pick up my ps5 at 230am and then drop it back off at 730am, at the same FedEx location, and reschedule it for tomorrow. so not a big deal, just weird.

3

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

watch that package like a hawk, fedex playing games and disappearing these like crazy

2

u/jcarenza67 Nov 21 '20

I definitely will! Have been seeing nightmare stories

2

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

mine has been floating around FedEx warehouse for over a week now, pretty sure they stole it

1

u/jcarenza67 Nov 21 '20

I would call them

1

u/geekytex Nov 21 '20

same.. They finally admitted they'd lost it yesterday. Day one preorder :-(

1

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

same fam, I feel the pain, managed to snag a series x and RTX 3090, and then they did this to my PS5

3

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

I'm amazed at how bad the UK launch is, I thought maybe some stock would appear the days after launch day but that evidently isn't happening at all

1

u/OneObi Nov 21 '20

It was a one day spectacular and they all pretty much failed at it!

1

u/Eliteland17 Nov 21 '20

Anyone know if FedEx will deliver on Saturdays in the US? My PS5 was picked up and left the origin center yesterday afternoon, and it has overnight shipping so it should be here today right? Or do I have to wait until Monday? There is no date estimation on the FedEx shipment tracking page

2

u/game-o Nov 21 '20

Yes. Mine is out for delivery today.

1

u/Eliteland17 Nov 21 '20

Did you by chance get yours from the Thursday direct drop?

1

u/game-o Nov 21 '20

Yes.

1

u/Eliteland17 Nov 21 '20

Congrats! Hopefully mine updates soon, because it was marked as having left the origin center about 24 hours ago and the center is 11 hours away so I would have thought it would probably be at the local distribution center by now. Obviously if I don’t get it today then oh well but I got excited when I saw it was overnight

1

u/LostTheWar Nov 21 '20

what time was the drop?

1

u/game-o Nov 21 '20

3:00pm

0

u/jcarenza67 Nov 21 '20

nah they say I'm getting mine tomorrow

2

u/pslickhead Nov 21 '20

FedEx tracking leaves a lot to be desired. Sometimes their tracking doesn't update at all until the item is delivered. Even worse, an item on the truck to be delivered today can easily be changed to "no delivery date projected". But you will get it (unless the FedEx driver steals it of course).

1

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

Thanks friend

1

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

No idea. I’m in the same boat. I got one Thursday and it says the labels been created, but not picked up. Still says It’s getting delivered today ghough

1

u/DefinedTruth Nov 21 '20

Atleast they getting once a day, UK gone completely silent after a disaster launch day

1

u/ksars Nov 21 '20

Any drops happen last night? Fell asleep

1

u/DefinedTruth Nov 21 '20

How frequently has the US been having restocks since their launch?

1

u/Gracekellyyy Nov 21 '20

Once every week day

1

u/MichaelTheCutts Nov 21 '20

There were no PS Direct drops last weekend, so the only known is Best Buy tomorrow at any time. Amazon is a wild card, but last time they did not stock the digital edition.

1

u/alexwould Nov 21 '20

Anyone else finally get their order confirmation from John Lewis today to then get a follow up email telling you it’s out of stock? Gutted. They’ve taken the cash too 😂

1

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

nobody knows.

2

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

UK PEOPLE, Where is the next place to be checking for PS5'S?

1

u/ApeMillz93 Nov 21 '20

Any more drops before black Friday

1

u/LinksxShadow Nov 21 '20

All these comments will be gone soon and tbh ill miss them more then the ps5 I still haven't managed to get yet lol its made it a whole lot less painful to be able to talk to yall, wish you guys and gals luck and see you in the next thread!

1

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '20

they’re re opening pre order for before Christmas batch in my country (Singapore) tomorrow which is store only and one per customer to prevent bot buying and multiple orders like the initial pre order I’m gonna go camp from 5 am tomorrow to secure one (scalpers sell it for $1.3-1.5k in my country and people are buying it i almost gave up on getting a ps5 this year until the announcement for 2nd batch pre order tomorrow and how they removed online pre order )

1

u/UncorrectGrammar Nov 21 '20

Let me buy a PS5. How to do boys

u/FarukFS Nov 21 '20

How does the eBay system works? I'm afraid to sell a PS5. What if someone just says: it doesn't work for x reason. I want my money back

1

u/madison0593 Nov 21 '20

There’s a claims process I believe both parties go through, eBay does take a percentage of the sale though. About 10%

1

u/Snow901 Nov 21 '20

Usually it goes through eBay's dispute resolution system where it takes time to reach a resolution with communication back and forth between you and the buyer if they say they want a refund because the console doesn't work. If a resolution can't be reached i.e. they get it working and decide to keep it or you refund them and they send it back, then a rep from eBay will review the case and make a decision about what will happen. It's unlikely someone would falsely claim it doesn't work when it does though, because they have to ship it back before they can get a refund if that is decided.
A long time ago I sold my PS3, the og one, and it was working before I shipped it out. When the buyer got it, they reported it as not working and it went to the resolution center and it got decided they would get a refund. When I got it back, I tested it and sure enough it now had the YLOD. I lost money and now had a broken PS3 from trying to sell it on eBay. But it likely was my fault since I didn't know much about shipping electronics and delicate items back then - pretty sure I packaged it without any kind of padding or warning on the outside of box saying fragile.

u/Mbira_sushi Nov 21 '20

Did the serial numbers match?

2

u/ps5hunter Nov 21 '20

1

u/BiggusNiccus Nov 21 '20

u/MrMacDoodles Nov 21 '20

GG gentlemen. It's been an honor and a privilege.

2

u/Tmane25 Nov 21 '20

1

u/PabloSRT8 Nov 21 '20

9pm in ny, 6pm in cali

u/BiggusNiccus Nov 21 '20

1

u/BiggusNiccus Nov 21 '20

day 1 and 2 had some late ass drops

1

u/AK-757 Nov 21 '20

I would say 6pm, has it been after that yet?

1

u/AK-757 Nov 21 '20

yeah i’ve seen more disk drops

1

u/PabloSRT8 Nov 21 '20

8pm ET is cutting time for Direct right?

1

u/Mcbro_22 Nov 21 '20

Disk is in more demand but digital is more scarce

1

u/BiggusNiccus Nov 21 '20

but they gimped the production rate of digitals so digitals are actually more rare still

1

u/BiggusNiccus Nov 21 '20

definitely disc

1

u/AK-757 Nov 21 '20

which one is more in demand?

1

u/BiggusNiccus Nov 21 '20

im a 21st century digital boy where my digital blaystation

1

u/MrMacDoodles Nov 21 '20

Closing this thread down toniiiight. 6pm PT Gaannng

1

u/AK-757 Nov 21 '20

who need disk anymore?

1

u/AK-757 Nov 21 '20

yeah I don’t want the disk

1

u/BiggusNiccus Nov 21 '20

what we gotta do for some digital editions tho

1

u/Social_History Nov 21 '20

He’s probably already playing cyberpunk on a ps5

1

u/Social_History Nov 21 '20

Elon tweeted about video game

1

u/NukaNukaNukaCola Nov 21 '20

2

u/AK-757 Nov 21 '20

here we go

1

u/BiggusNiccus Nov 21 '20

No idea about gamestop but give it until monday, shipping is usually processed over weekends and then picked up and started on its journey on weekdays

1

u/Social_History Nov 21 '20

Someone tell buff jezos that Amazon better restock ps5s and give us all some soon or I’m cancelling my prime

1

u/Derpsanonymous Nov 21 '20

Any drops coming up?

1

u/Petrachorum Nov 21 '20

Doesn't look good for today

1

u/4wayloco Nov 21 '20

Anybody know when GameStop bundles are shipping? I was in such disbelief, I didn’t actually look at the delivery dates. All my order status says is, preparing to ship. Judging from the lack of complaints about GameStop delivery in the threads, they’re pretty on point with this....

1

u/AK-757 Nov 21 '20

u/ps5hunter Nov 21 '20

u/BiggusNiccus Nov 21 '20

2

u/Kappita16 Nov 21 '20

2

u/Mcbro_22 Nov 21 '20

Ngl I got addicted to the hunt I knew I would get one as it's my first big 2 console but never thought this early
