PS5 & XSX Pickup: The Struggle Continues |OT|

The 3 o clock was never given by anyone than by people hoping it was 3 so it will either come now or whenever today.

EternalWinter · Nov 13, 2020

Out of stock messaged has disappeared and reappeared a few times now but no button to add to cart.

works fine for me, sometimes the "out of stock" doesn't load in for some reason. who knows, maybe bots got them all.

Lol, exactly what I've been thinking.

SRTtoZ · Nov 13, 2020

Remember if it goes up and you're a PS+ member to select express shipping for free. If you forget maybe chat support can help but do not cancel your order to change it lol.

More likely they didn't go up. I never had the site not load like some people, and it never shifted from out of stock.

Shoichi · Nov 13, 2020

~~aww whatever happened with the website removed the PS5 that was in my cart...~~

edit: never mind, it appeared again just OOS

Fox318 · Nov 13, 2020

I feel like at this rate the only way to get a PS5 is to sell your kidney to somebody on ebay

Sign up for this: https://www.fedex.com/en-us/delivery-manager.html

And opt into SMS delivery notifications. Literally right after I did that I got a text with a tracking number saying it's arriving tomorrow. I looked up the number on the FedEx tracking website and it said "shipping from SONY PLAYSTATION" in big bold text. I'm in NYC and it's coming directly from Dayton, NJ.

Damn, nothing yet.

It was the time of the drop yesterday, so people just kind of assumed it would be the same deal today

KakesuSora · Nov 13, 2020

What has the quantity been like on PS Direct? Seems like it's been a significant amount more than everywhere else.

nilbog · Nov 13, 2020

Isilia · Nov 13, 2020

The site crashed on my end

MrNelson · Nov 13, 2020

Site getting hammered now

Yeah, getting that as well.

jukeboxhero2396 · Nov 13, 2020

Site working for me, still OOS

Same

MrRob · Nov 13, 2020

Site is ded for me

fluffydelusions · Nov 13, 2020

working here too but oos

SolidSnakeBoy · Nov 13, 2020

dead for me

Snake Eater · Nov 13, 2020

Sony never said it was 3pm, many just assumed it would be again

netguy503 · Nov 13, 2020

site crashed? so just keep refreshing I guess

EternalWinter · Nov 13, 2020

Alive here, but OOS

jukeboxhero2396 · Nov 13, 2020

welp I guess it'll be later

If you are on the site currently, does that mean you have no queue when you refresh and there's stock? I have been on since this morning with an auto refresher.

Shoichi · Nov 13, 2020

we really don't know when today its dropping. yesterday was at 12 so people assumed the same was today. maybe they changed it to not be so predictable

Dr J · Nov 13, 2020

It is working for me. Hasn't crashed yet.

Hale-XF11 · Nov 13, 2020

still oos

Spasm · Nov 13, 2020

Man it's freaking me out when the Out of Stock button disappears.

dralla · Nov 13, 2020

The one I ordered yesterday from PS Direct is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. Just got a message from Fed Ex. My order details still says Preparing For Shipment

Musubi · Nov 13, 2020

Would be hilarious if everyone is crashing the site thinking its 3pm but its not 3pm at all.

pretty sure this is what happened

god

this waiting is unbearable

WeAreStarStuff · Nov 13, 2020

Blah. Put my auto refresher on 25 seconds. Sigh. I want off this crazy train.

Isilia · Nov 13, 2020

Guess we gotta mash the button at 4, 5, 6, 7...

Ricky_R · Nov 13, 2020

Site works now. Seems the wave stop trying when stock wasn't available.

random time helps normal people or bots though?

Xandalan · Nov 13, 2020

Sony has not said anything thats the problem. Wal mart was a travesty but at least I could wait not feeling like a fool for guessed times.

fluffydelusions · Nov 13, 2020

Hope it isn't too much longer. Would be cool if it could ship out today.

Yeah real laugh fest over here /s

Ricky_R · Nov 13, 2020

Random time is definitely better I feel.

Ocean · Nov 13, 2020

I tried to buy a Dualsense on the Direct website earlier and it said there was trouble with my credit card info, even though it was all correct :/

Colasante · Nov 13, 2020

Hopefully enough people leave the site after realizing the 3pm re-stock was a bust that when it actually does drop out of nowhere those of us who've been sitting on the page all day will be able to purchase it smoothly.

jukeboxhero2396 · Nov 13, 2020

it's better than announcing when you drop, because when they announce drop times you get a shitshow like walmart.

God I am such a fuck up, I can't believe I did this.

Just reading through the thread now. I can't believe you did this! Hopefully you scored another one by now.

Riddler · Nov 13, 2020

Up at Best Buy

and it's gone that was fast.

I would think normal people. Setting a time gives the bots an exact time frame to start doing it.

Soi-Fong · Nov 13, 2020

They're trying to throw off the bots. lol

Shoichi · Nov 13, 2020

PS5 up for open-box

Only open box for me

hunnies28 · Nov 13, 2020

I think people have started to calm down, I can actually refresh the page now

Krakatoa · Nov 13, 2020

dont the bots just keep running 24/7? I mean its just a script so there's no reason not too.

reKon · Nov 13, 2020

Mine arrived from Amazon an hour ago. Ordered September 16th with free shipping.

It showed arriving November 23rd - 26th until yesterday evening where it suddenly just showed as shipping arriving before 10 PM today.

Will be setting up later today after getting through work.
