Just rang the 0800 number for NL. They took my cell number, checked my invoice, said i'll be very pleased to know that one is already in my store waiting for me to pick it up on thursday, anytime.

 

Bonus was it was meant to be delivered.

 

Long story short, they'll be available to collect thursday, shipped on thursday.

 

 

Hallelujah!





Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

Foose: Well this just came in on my Twitter DM:

Thank you for reaching us on social. We are glad to hear from you. I am happy to assist you about PS. With the latest communication from our team, all customers who pre-ordered their consoles will have it send to them for delivery/collection on the 12th of November. We will notify you immediately once the unit is ready to collect/delivery. Thank you so much. Have a nice day ahead.

 

From whom?

 

 

 

 

From Noel Leeming...

I just got confirmation from TWH online chat that mine will be delivered on the 12th Nov!

 

To open, to save for XMas (as was agreed with financial director and wearer of pants) - Or to scalp, oops I mean recoup costs and add a holding/order fee for paying for it ages ago and gamble that I can get another for xmas? and use additional funds on kidlets??

Treat yourself to an early christmas present, buy the wife some trinket to keep her happy. Kids are gonna get spoiled anyway, no need to take away your happiness. Problem solved.

This doesn't look very promising. Ordered before midday on launch. 

 

 

 

 

*EDIT* Just called NL and they can't provide me any more information and I need to wait for the 12th November to see if there's an allocation at my local store.

That's frustrating.

 

 

 

I ordered morning of 17th as well - my order has changed as below and they confirmed on phone it was awaiting courier pickup. Wonder if they oversold their allocation or if it is just a system gremlin?

New "Ultimate FAQ" from Sony on the PS5 - noting that games are Region free!

 


Also didn't realise that the UK didn't get theirs until the rest of Europe on the 19th...

I think the accessories were delayed?

 

 

 

To everyone concerned about the status of their orders with Noel Leeming, i just live chatted and got given a tracking number and told it was picked up. No email with tracking number like the others and this is the current status of my PS5. So no need to worry.

 

This is the exciting part "Service standardOvernight"

If I knew I could get another one before Xmas and someone wants to pay more to get it now, whats the problem?

 

Im not, and what you are describing is someone going out of their way to purchase or over-purchase with the initial intent of making a profit - I didnt.

But you couldn't sell it on until you knew it was coming on release day. Now that you know you will get it, it's time to take advantage?
