Haha, my ebgames.ca order went through. Gonna be delivered to my door but now I'm gonna freak out thinking it'll get stolen.

There's no way to change my order from delivery to in-store pick up is there?

I know this is times of COVID but god damn Best Buy just let me go into the store to preorder, ffs. Had no issues in previous years doing it.

This was way worse than PS5, MS's smarmy ass Twitter clap not aging well at all. This was 3080 levels of bullshit.

Got an S from MS store! Key is to be patient. If you gives you an error, click again. Would have rather done All Access but it wasn't loading at all.

I was at checkout and it kept saying it couldn't complete the process due to the error. Just kept clicking submit order until it finally went through.

For anyone in Canada, both the S / X are still available on Best Buy. The checkout is working too, at least for me.


Good luck trying to actually compelte your order.. I tried for an hour. And now apparently I keep getting access denied message to bestbuy.ca

Couldn't complete my order on the Microsfot store either... in the final steps at the source though.

All Access finally works.. but sold out. Are you kidding me.

This is ridiculous.
I don't think this is true. It could be but Walmart changed their All Access from Sold Out to Coming Soon and there's zero people in this thread that actually successfully got an All Access console. It's more likely to me that All Access is just not working and they delayed it to fix the issues.

Tried pre-ordering a Series X at my local Wal-Mart (right at 11am EST), they said they're not accepting pre-orders in that district. Which makes no sense, I live in Central NY and Covid cases are below 1%. They said they might do pre-orders in October and to try pre-ordering online (ha, yeah right) or GameStop. Well, they wasted 15 minutes of time waiting for an associate to come to the counter. So, I go over to my local GameStop and they sold out of Series X pre-orders and only had Series S left (no thanks).

If their reasoning was to not have a line, well then that is flawed logic. There will be an even bigger line on launch.

Part of me thinks no consoles were allocated for All Access anywhere. I don't think anyone in here was successful with All Access on any site.

At the very end of the MS Store and getting an "Unable to purchase at this time" and the error details say its something on their end - do I just keep trying or am I fucked?

Best Buy changed their Xbox Series X and their Xbox Series S listings to "Coming Soon" now after no one was able to purchase it due to "high demand" and it not being added to their cart, what the fuck is going on. LMAO.

Apple only sells their products. Amazon/Best Buy/etc sell a bunch of products, and they probably (rightly) don't consider building up a bunch of extra capacity just to sell the occasional console pre-order every few years worth it.
Also, allocation for mobile phones is way higher than consoles. It's just a more mass market product. Apple's supply chain is also world beating.

Got a Target order and an Amazon order for the series X. The temptation to scalp it is heavy but I'm gonna sell it at cost to my buddy who didn't get one.

Good luck today everyone

Throwing it out there (haha), but if anyone got an extra Series X and they aren't going to need - I have a good home for it at my place. Message me if so.
