Well we will see how Kohl's goes.. it's unlikely it had many bots? Did they sell it before? And it's late, a lot of people didn't know about it as well so let's look at the possibilities.

While there's a good chance these will get cancelled, there's also a chance that there just weren't bots set up. There are thousands of bots fighting for Target, Amazon, etc.

Snagged one from Kohls, literally finished a hunt in MHW and checked my phone. No email yet but I have an order number on the site.

That Best Buy employee is now saying 3am. He is live streaming on twitch. So I am wondering if he did this for clout or is really being honest.

I just got a Kohl's bundle. It changed from the original controller and charging station bundle to controller and Spider-Man so it might be legit.

Did it tell anyone it couldn't process their payment? It seemed to switch between that and telling me the SKU was out of stock, I'm assuming the former was it just being buggy though.

Got one at Kohl's. Checked out as guest and card was charged. Honestly probably 5 minutes behind everyone was just getting ready to go to bed and refreshed this.

seems too good to be true and the lack of an auto email is concerning.

I'm in a bit of shock. Bundle was perfect for me. Only full price game I'll probably buy all gen but want a show off game.

I'm seeing people on twitter say they ordered 10 and it went through. A ton of these are getting cancelled tomorrow

No email confirmation but got a Chase email that my card was charged.
Too easy.
maybe can use for kohl's cash or a GC once they inevitably cancel lol.

No email, just a pending charge, this shit's getting cancelled guys

Any PS5 allotment that doesn't go out of stock in less than 4 seconds is pretty suspect

It told me about 3 times it was not available and around the 4th the order went through, could be that as orders failed etc that they were put back on the site.

Is anyone besides bots getting Kohl's? Like, who the fuck is actively checking Kohl's except for bots?
Can't believe this but... I managed to snag one at Kohl's. And it was on my wife's phone so I didn't have any addresses or card info set up beforehand, it was slow and clumsy. But the website was smooth and I checked out super normally. Looks like this wasn't on bots' radar?

That, or they just oversold and I'll be crushed with disappointment once they email me saying "lol oops".

I hope all our orders made it though. Even if all of Kohl's only had 2,000, honestly how many people would be checking? I thought they only sold clothes. Also, bots tend to stay away from bundles. Also, it's past 1am EST; lots to be hopeful about.

Kohls is going to be the same case as with the infamous rtx 3090 for $500 glitch, everyone ordered, no one is getting it.

Yeah, my order "completed" and I got a confirmation number, and a text from my card company asking if it was a valid charge, but no email confirmation of the order yet (it's been 11 minutes)... fingers crossed it actually worked and doesn't get cancelled...

Shit, I got a Kohl's bundle, got charged, but I accidently lost the order confirmation page. Any way to get it back? History just takes me to the home page.

I feel like some of these are going to get cancelled but I hope some of you actually got through!

The site not crashing is a good sign that bots weren't aware. it's late, it wasn't on anybody's radar in advance, and the site didn't lag at any point. Walmart, Best Buy, and others were brought down hard. I have a hard time believing that Kohl's has that much better of a website than the others.

Kohl is probably getting oversold at this point. Or they have so much stock they can get past with all the orders
