Wait so people ordering in store pickup for Walmart tonight expect they'll get there's on black friday? Considering people who ordered yesterday for Walmarts in store pickup don't get to pick it up until December 2ndish that would be weird.
So a local GS had for-hire security guards/bouncers show up and try to money muscle their way past everyone/pay to have "first dibs", while also getting the cops to enforce a no-loitering "policy" for everyone else hanging around the store until 5 a.m.?14.5 hours down. 9.5 hours to go.
Reports of security guards attempting to "secure spots" for $300 for two PS5s at a nearby GameStop. The guards managed to get police to stop people from parking at that lot until 5am, at which point, presumably, the hustle occurs and everybody else is fucked.
Definitely gonna report that soon.
Meanwhile, my chosen store has zero PS5s but six XSX. I remain first in line. We've done a steady, decent job of convincing folks not to bother waiting now; especially for a PS5. Still, we do have a couple of people already who just... don't believe me, so hey.
Going off a stock website, all the GameStops in the Valley only have literally 2 PS5s in stock, and I assume they all already got people camping out :/ otherwise I'd be down.
once this pandemic is over we gotta do a SFV era meetup!
Isn't Walmart only selling PS5s online?
Master strategy is to go in camo paint
But Best Buy could also be doing one and we knows when that'll go up.
No sleep till PS5.
Last one was 4-5am est.
Last Best Buy stock went up at 5:15 AM eastern.

Seems ultra-sleazy, if that's accurate, but I also don't really get it. If someone's going through that effort/money just to nab what seems to be a super limited allotment at a GS, then why don't they just pay a scalper their troll toll?
Mine was ready for pickup yesterday. But I wasn't able to get it yesterday.Anyone "know" anything about the Best Buy pickups ready for tomorrow? Since they open at 5, I... I kind of want to be there at 5. But I doubt the "preparing for pickup tomorrow" message will already be full...

You can use popfindr to check, but all Gamestops were supposed to have at the very least have 2 PS5's and 6 Series X, though a few Gamestops in my area do have 0 stock.So are all GameStops supposed to have stock? My area doesn't seem too crazy but I'm hesitant to go if there isn't a guarantee of having stock.
Honestly, Gamestop should've just kept them in their warehouse and sold them online if stores are only getting 2.I still think it's insane that most GameStop's have 2 PS5...maybe they got more yesterday before closing and Popfindr didn't update?
But the thirst hasn't been stronger it appears.On my way from Thanksgiving I was driving home and made a quick stop to my local GameStop. I saw around 2 dozen campers.The dream is still so very dead.
Thanks, just looked and it looks like 2 at most. I'll give Walmart a shot at 11 and then run by a few closer ones and see if there are lines yet.You can use popfindr to check, but all Gamestops were supposed to have at the very least have 2 PS5's and 6 Series X, though a few Gamestops in my area do have 0 stock.
Yeah, it's a bit out there. I had planned to check it out as soon as I heard about it with a friend and he was going to stay in line and I knew days ago as soon as people here siad they saw one in line that this was coming.Yikes. Unfortunately I think someone is going to get hurt at one of these stores in the morning.
I'm confused at what Walmart's plan is. I'm hoping it's simply 2 online drops. One at 12 am and one at 5 am for same day in store pickup at your local store?
I'm gonna get a PS5
I'm gonna watch the new episode of Mandalorian
I'm gonna pre-order Cyberpunk 2077
Friday will be a good day, I believe.

Oh my fucking god. Meijer.com already has a Sony Direct-esque wait queue.
Edit: Oh shit, it IS "Queue-it" I'm fucking doomed.
Santa is coming and with all his oh deer,I'm gonna get a PS5
I'm gonna watch the new episode of Mandalorian

I think we are definitely gonna see at least one PS5 fight video come Friday afternoon. Probably not at a Gamestop but I can see it happening at a larger store.Yikes. Unfortunately I think someone is going to get hurt at one of these stores in the morning.

I'm going dressed as bushes. This way I can sneak in front of everyone.

But why? "Well if you wanted one earlier you should have ordered later." ??? I'm just asking if that's confirmed because it sounds completely stupid?The ones for in store on December 2nd pickup are being shipped to the store. The ones for tonight, Black Friday, are already at the store.

ROFL.
For the hell of it, I went to Meijer.com (not planning to buy anything since i'm in Canada) and the queue is insane.
31 minute wait and 32,658 users in front of me.
Dammit I didn't know they were doing a queue. When I asked in store a few weeks ago they just said they wouldn't be selling them.Oh my fucking god. Meijer.com already has a Sony Direct-esque wait queue.

LOL none, I just went to their main site and got instantly into a queue to just enter the site to look at stuff. Didn't even hit their main pageWhat page are you on? Are you signed into your account and an MPerks Member? I cannot find this line system on their site.
