Kane99 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Pre-orders were set up for the PS5 the other day, and it sold out pretty fast. Many were upset, because Sony promised to start pre-orders the next day, but instead opened them up the night before. Most places are sold out and currently I don't know of anywhere that has pre-orders open. Did anyone here get a pre-order in? I am waiting a while before I purchase anyway. People are already selling pre-orders on Ebay for like $1000+ right now. I hate scalpers, they suck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Anything that is in demand, especially something that has been anticipated for so long like the PS5, is going to have scalpers trying to rip gullible people off. As for the night before part, they most likely went on sale at midnight, which technically is the day they promised the preorders to be sold. I can't say, as I didn't bother keeping up with it, since I have no intention of buying one for a few years at least. I always do that if there's a system I'm interested in. Bugs not initially caught will be fixed, price will be lower, more games will be available. It's a win-win IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARx182 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I'm not fussed about pre-ordering but I considered it; every store I looked at was sold out by the time I got there. As for people selling for ridiculous prices, it's a shame, but you'd have to have a very low IQ to purchase one for a ridiculous price. Pre-ordering is not the end, lol.

Heatman Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Well, even before Playstation 5, I have never been into pre-ordering any video game console for any reason whatsoever. It's not my thing till date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I didn't go for any pre-order, I simply hanged on to see the game release before triggering any purchase option. I am not in any haste when it comes to playing any video game because it will surely come and go too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 There are some people who are actually did get PS5 on pre-order. At least, I know about 3 people who did but it's not really advisable in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I do not pre-order, why pay more and still get it at the same price when it's released. Yeah, you do get bells and bombs with it. But not into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also prefer it's official launch time and not pre-order when it isn't officially launched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people would tell you that when the money isn't a big deal for them, why wait when they can afford the game even if the price was doubled.

I wish I can be like that, Able to buy the game that I really want and not to worry about how much it's going to cost as I have the money. But for me, Not simple as that. I look at games that cost $50 and it's hard and most of the time I reject and wait for it to go even cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
