For the first time ever, my purchase went through at Gamestop, and then Bank of America flagged it as fraudulent, and by the time I confirmed it was me it was too late. This is such an endlessly miserable experience on every level.

I really don't understand why websites don't just take a infinite number of orders and slowly send them out as they get new shipments.

Honestly they could have force people to pay all $500 outright months before they send out the system and people would still be willing too.

You'd have people cancelling orders left and right when they got one sooner somewhere else and it would be a big headache for them. I agree, though, there should be a way to do it that makes sense.

Some places use paypal such as GS and that is what I'd use if possible.

The best scenario would be Sony only doing backorders since they are the manufacturer themselves.

Trying my luck with Walmart for a Digital Edition here in a few. For a family member who's son just told her a couple days ago that he wants a PS5.

Edit: Should I refresh the page at 3, or just let it appear?
