    man JB sucks, the pricks, had one in my cart all morning but was unable to process the order and it tells me to check back, i refreshed the cart and then it told me it was out of stock.

        had one in their cart since 9:15, unable to complete checkout

    This has left a bitter taste in my mouth. F PlayStation. I tried every bloody store and got stuck in JB’s checkout for 45 mins - constantly refreshing and got nothing. I tried Amazon and kept trying to add it to my cart and got nothing.

      amazon are just so unpredictable with their release though.. they seem to be releasing a number of consoles randomly!

  • SleekDMC on 12/11/2020 - 12:28

    I have been an Amazon prime member for a few years, should I change the shipping from expedited to priority, isn't the later faster? I don't need the PS5 this month but getting it by Dec 9th would be very nice.

    Any other amazon prime members in here who managed to get a disc version pre-ordered let me know.

    Also my order went thru at 9:06am AEDST but the notification email from Amazon that it was available to order was not until 9:38am, lol

      someone mentioned earlier that they changed their shipping from expedited to priority and it got pushed back a couple of weeks, best bet don't touch it tbh and play the patience game , I got mine (disc) preordered for 18th like most of the Dec people I think..

      • gangstacoder on 14/11/2020 - 12:40

        I changed from expedited to priority and went from Dec 17 to not having a date at all

    • WheresMeDeal on 12/11/2020 - 12:32

      I saw previous posts mentioning that Priority shipping changes the delivery date to one day earlier than Expedited. Unless if something has changed, would be worth paying a bit extra to get it by the 8th though! Might have a look and see if I can change it.

    • nguyes08 on 12/11/2020 - 14:13

      I changed shipping from expedited to priority. Went from Dec 22th to Dec 17th

      • bird380 on 12/11/2020 - 13:45

        mine has changed to "delivery date pending"

        • smarter_fool on 12/11/2020 - 16:18

          When did you order yours. I made a big mistake by linking my gift card to my order and it changed form expected delivery 17-22 Dec to delivery date pending. I hope paying by gift card will not push me down the queue. I ordered around 9:07AM.

          • bird380 on 12/11/2020 - 16:25

            @smarter_fool: Received confirmation email at 9:08AM. Originally used my debit card as a payment method (Arriving before 17 Dec), then I have applied full giftcard amount for this order, then realised the status changed to "delivery date pending" :((((((((

            • siraulo23 on 13/11/2020 - 05:38

              @bird380: Hey mate, did yours ever update from delivery date pending to an actual date?

              I changed mine from expedited to priority and now also says delivery date pending

              • gram on 13/11/2020 - 16:25

                @siraulo23: If you read comments a few pages back someone did what you did at their date changed into late December. There was also a warning comment above not to do so.

                I think you might've gotten a little greedy.

                • siraulo23 on 13/11/2020 - 16:28

                  @gram: yea lol true, tried my luck, just wondering if @bird380 had his update since or if it is still delivery date pending

    • alo1234 on 12/11/2020 - 13:10

      My guess is that their server/app that handle the delivery/address lookup API crapped out/overloaded and won't allow you to checkout, but it started working intermittently when the load/traffic goes down a bit as people were giving up/stopped refreshing the page like a maniac. Some people were lucky enough to get through including me so happy day!

      • qzcbmo on 12/11/2020 - 13:16

        • Greenandblue on 13/11/2020 - 11:19

          Worth checking again now as it was the same for me but the option suddenly appeared for me this morning (may have been because I contacted amazon support to query it though). Also worth noting that after applying my gift card balance I have gone from a estimated delivery of 23rd December to "We will email you when we have an estimated delivery date."

          • smarter_fool on 13/11/2020 - 11:30

            @Greenandblue: Yup thats what has happened to most of us who tried to add gift cards. At least I was going for the OzBargain badge of honour by using my HCF discounted gift cards :(.
            This is what I got back from them: -

            Greetings!

            This e-mail is form amazon customer service regarding your contact with us related to Playstation 5 console.

            I have reviewed your account and I see that the shipping status was changed due to some technical listing error, I would like to inform that the stock for your order has been secured.

            I can assure you that we will ship your package at the earliest. Once it is shipped, we will send you a confirmation email to keep you updated.

            Thank you for your patience and understanding, we really appreciate it. As always, for any further concerns or queries, please call us or email us >and we will be happy to help you. I hope this helps.

    PlayStation 5 has no limits… Provided you buy the console from scalpers at twice the cost. Joke of a tagline, giving up seen one too many Cloudflare bad gateways and empty carts for one day.

      I didn't buy from a scalper at double the price. I'd say only a tiny portion of people did. And if they did it's their own stupid fault.

      • LowRange on 12/11/2020 - 14:16

        Well aren't you lucky, so many of us tried all morning and got nothing. Hard to compete against people here ordering multiple consoles, groups of people working on fast fiber connections running bots with multiple computers, accounts and browsers scooping up loads of consoles for resale.

          How can it possibly be worth double the cost. I really want to play Demon's Souls but there is just no way I'd pay extra.

          Don't encourage the scalpers. Cancel on him/her.

          Probably be cheaper if you signed onto two Vodafone services and ask for the PS5 disc on a payment plan.
