PS5 Stock

The bloody morning 'briefing' at work went on for a fecking hour this morning, i came out of it to find stock alerts for Amazon that i'd missed. Some of my colleagues can't stop themselves wittering on, the bastards. Last week, when Game re-stocked i was waiting in the queue which said "more than 1 hour" to wait, so i went out to the warehouse to berate some halfwit for a cock up - came back in less than half hour to find a message flashing saying it was my time and i had 15 mins to complete the order...clicked the button and it was already out of stock.

I'm kind of resigned to waiting until early 2022. Might be some decent dedicated games out by then too mind.

Might be 2023 before you can walk into a shop and buy one at this rate.

Slightly off topic. I’m on my 5th controller since release, and my 3rd in 2 weeks. First and second the R2 buttons went, the first controllers went after a couple days, the second a few month. Then, I get one where the buttons don’t work in game, but do in the menu’s, then I get one where the circle button stuck after two days. Getting my new one today, word of advice, insure your controllers.

I've had no bother with mine that I got on launch day as yet but it's had relatively light use so far.

Stick in mate. I felt the same. Just need to eventually be in that right place and time. Managed to get one from shopto but it was a package at £609. Going to sell the two PS5 games that come with it and the extra controller. Hopefully make £80-90 back.

Probably going to want to keep that extra controller...

Got two with mine, second one came in very handy when the first was returned to Sony for a replacement. Took about a month for them to send it. What two games did you get?

I get it loads on Quest, I don't in real life though. It's put me off a bit. Unsure if the Quest 2 is any better.

The ISS experience is the worst, floating in zero gravity, I swung myself from one side of the space station to the other and couldn't stop myself. I put the headset down, went upstairs and had a lie down :lol:

Hardly played on it since, I get more enjoyment seeing other people marvel at it who have't used VR before. I think some of the documentaries are fantastic mind, especially the Everest experience.

I like just watching films or even sport on the Quest 2. Got my Iptv installed on it.
 
Other than being f***ing massive I love it. Nice to have a console again. I had backed up my PS4 to a USB Stick but the PS5 would only allowed a straight to PS4-PS5 transfer so I've lost a lot of my videos and screenshots from the PS4.
 
Never fear lads and lasses of the SMB, i have great news.

Just been through the town and CEX have not 1, not 2 but 3, yes 3(THREE) ps5s in stock at the bargain price of £750 each, second hand.

I thought about selling mine to them when I got it. They were offering 800 quid at one point.

£750?! Probably one of the many reasons the shop f***ing stinks of sweat and an essential quality in an application is a ear hoop and or a shite sleeve tattoo.
 
Bt have stock now but you need to have registered your interest with them and received a code through an email, just got another for a lad at work
Shopto just got them in again now
