Guys there's no stock as others have already said. I just let my queue finish and got in and can corroborate, the Sony Direct purchase site has no stock right now.

Got through the queue and as expected no PS5s in stock. Was hoping the Pulse 3D was re-stocked at least. Oh well.

But again, the queue didn't start until a bit before they came in stock.
Someone knows something we don't or they only activate it when it's time.

From what I recall reading around here, the queue is dictated by site traffic, not inventory of the console. So if a bunch of people are hitting up the site, the queue starts up.
Yeah, that makes sense. It's not like the site can read minds and know what people are there to buy... although they could venture to guess. LOL

It seems like they put everyone in a queue and then order it by like, IP address or something, instead of chronologically. /s

I was sour on Monday that I slept through it. But even being here pretty much right as it happened and still no luck stings.

You need to be very careful with your punctuation, and our hopes...

Yeah seriously the queue only starts when traffic hits a certain point, then how are people finding out these random drop times in the first place. Someplace has to be leaking or giving the word out. I wish Sony would bring the check back or stock info messaging back at least. The worst is the awful communication.
