Xbox Series S/X Preorder Mega Thread (Worldwide Preorder Details in OP) - Starts Sep 22nd

[Fawz]

Managed to get a XSX from GameStop (EbGames here in Canada). The Checkout kept failing but then I got a order confirmation email and it showed up in my account history page

Wallmart sold out right away, even though it was in my cart it didn't work.
Amazon the store page kept giving errors
The Source had web page issues and then it sold out
Newegg I never saw any listings
MSFT Store gave me the most issues with the page not loading for the longest time and then giving me stupid errors like no shipping in Canada before just failing at the payment page

 

[msdstc]

got one through best buy!

 

[Urishizu]

Uhh just got back to the computer. BB page was up in my cart with a Series X. Pressed checkout and just got my dad a unit. No fuss. No muss. Wtf?

 

[karmaforgotme]

Keep spamming add to cat button on BB. Took me about 15 times, but once in cart it worked perfect.

 

[Deleted member 9857]

the fact Microsoft Store shows out of stock on the product page despite the fact I'm still trying to place my order makes me think I'm screwed :(

 

[nihilence]

Awesome day.


Can't order.
Fridge that just got fixed at work is broken after 5 days.. There goes $1000+ of food.

 

[Lighinthedarkness]

I got a Series S through Best Buy.

 

[GoldCartridgeGamer]

I got an order on Best Buy using the app.

 

[Hippopuncher12]

Wow Best Buy app worked! Got a 2nd one from there in case my Amazon one falls through.

 

[FunMouse]

I ended up getting one with Amazon. But I would rather get it with All Access (if approved). Just sitting here refreshing bestbuy all access lol.

 

[PinballRJ]

Got in on Best Buy, I'll cancel my Amazon order when I know this one is gonna stay

 

[haklong]

I was able to put in an order at Best Buy, go for it before bots ruin it.

 

[Brinbe]

glad people are still getting through!

 

[HonestAbe]

oh snap. Best Buy just worked - and it allowed curbside/in store pickup.

 

[Witness]

Well i got Best Buy to suddenly work for a X. No all access though but I at least wanted to secure one in case AA is fucked until launch.

 

[Tommyguns]

Wait holy crap. I gave up on Best Buy like a half hour ago but I left the page open in the background. Decided to try one more time and was able to checkout, switch to store pickup, add some rewards certificates, and done. Wow, I feel like I just won the lottery given how difficult it was earlier.

HOLY SHIT

Read this. Swapped over to my app-continued to checkout-selected store for pick up and payment. And BOOM. IT IS DONE

 

[JonesXlv]

BestBuy app worked. Finally

 

[ostrichKing]

Best Buy secured...I was right about them not blowing their load earlier ha :)

 

[GrandHarrier]

So what happens if you already have time of Gamepass Ultimate and purchase All Access. Does it put your remaining months at the end of the 2 years?

 

[msdstc]

protip on best buy add to cart- click build a bundle, you don't have to bundle anything and you can mash add

 

[tapedeck]

My buddy just got his Series X through Best Buy also, sounds like that's the place to try.

 

[TooBusyLookinGud]

Ummmm, I was just effing around and got a Best Buy order for instore pick-up. Go to Best Buy now.

 

[peppermints]

really? I tried to add ASAP and did not work

at elast I got on at MS and amazon

Click to shrink...

It was my last ditch attempt.. Had banked on Microsoft and they were a cluster, and Best Buy and WalMart were no gos. Seems like luck of the draw for everything.

 

[Vilifier]

Got an XSX from BestBuy just now!

 

[Montresor]

PRAISE THE LORD

My brother got me an extra Series X from The Source in Canada.

Nice! I forgive you Phil Spencer

I'll etransfer my brother the money for the Series X!

whew. See you guys November 10th!

 

[Tap In]

Yep, and I've been at it so long that it's had me sign back about 5 times now as I keep trying

Click to shrink...

Crap
Sorry. Sending luck
Did you try another browser? Others said using chromium Edge worked

 

[Landy828]

[AgentOtaku]

Oh wow, I actually got a Best buy order!

[PhotogDoug]

[F34R]

Still not able to add to cart with BB.

 

[Darknight]

I just can't get Best Buy to add to cart at all.

 

[Mr Eric]

So what happens if you already have time of Gamepass Ultimate and purchase All Access. Does it put your remaining months at the end of the 2 years?

Click to shrink...

yes it will add up, but still with a 36 months cap (so if you have more than 12 months remaining you will lose those above 12)

 

[AgentOtaku]

Still not able to add to cart with BB.

Click to shrink...

Keep tapping, that's what worked for me

 

[GrimGrinningGuy]

Got one Best Buy, in store and PayPal exactly what I wanted!!!

 

[Hound]

What voodoo is getting everybody past the "too high demand to add to your cart" error?

 

[Courtyard Jackal]

Just got one through the best buy app

 

[georeaper]

Just got it through Best Buy...after 2 hours of trying.

 

[Booker.DeWitt]

It was my last ditch attempt.. Had banked on Microsoft and they were a cluster, and Best Buy and WalMart were no gos. Seems like luck of the draw for everything.

Click to shrink...

so it was in stock for you?? and you did not try first ?? shit, maybe it came back in stock after I gave up

 

[Necrokey]

Got a second one on bestbuy, still hoping for a series S on amazon though.

 

[cyrribrae]

the fact Microsoft Store shows out of stock on the product page despite the fact I'm still trying to place my order makes me think I'm screwed :(

Click to shrink...

Are you on the cart/checkout blankness? I just came back to it after a while, and it was sitting there waiting to be bought. If you're trying to add it still, that might be a problem.

 

[Indy in the Fridge]

Best Buy app doesn't work

website doesn't work

fuck this shit

 

[Beer Monkey]

So what happens if you already have time of Gamepass Ultimate and purchase All Access. Does it put your remaining months at the end of the 2 years?

Click to shrink...

There's a 3 year limit on how far out your sub can go.

So hopefully they add the months to extend your sub as you go.

 

[EBomb]

Just got one at Best Buy

 

[Loud Wrong]

What is with Amazon's reticence to put up the S?

 

[RPG]

Just got the Best Buy order to go through.

 

[GK86]

Got one through BB. Finally went through.

 

[NowhereFaded]

Holy fuck just got one at Best Buy In store pick up!!

 

[TooBusyLookinGud]

I tried on both Safari & Edge on both my Mac and iPhone but I never got further than the place order button sadly

The app. Website did not work. App worked perfectly.
