I sent off my original controller to Sony at the start of January because the trackpad was faulty, and I've only just had confirmation they received it today. Bought another controller in the interim, and there's definitely something loose rattling around in there.
I know it's a remastered ps3 game. The one im waiting for is horizon forbidden west, that looks amazing and will be out this year. I'm starting to think I bought this thing a year too early cost me 750 aswell. Although I did want to play the assassin's creed games and at least I've now got the console.
They returned it in a week or received it in a week?
It's a proper pisser having to return it because me and the missus play a lot of coop games.
10 days turnaround give or take...
Not too bad. Yours may have got caught up in the Xmas post @littlepeasoup

Argos don’t give a feck. It’s not difficult to chuck a captcha on the checkout.
captcha, does nothing but help bots.@Pexbo is a scalper don't mind him...
Ordered Sackboy so me and the mrs can play together, excited for it.
I’ve bought the PS4 version, so I assume the ps5 upgrade happens automatically?

Is FIFA worth getting?
So silly question here but if I eventually buy a ps5 will all the digital ps4 games I own just be available to re-download on my account or is there any way to bring over all the save data from them too?
Yep, it’s all there waiting for you
Ah perfect, thanks.Yep, it’s all there waiting for you
Retailers don't really give a damn, I really wish people would stop buying off scalpers, it's the best way to stop this.
Finally managed to bag one of these today from Very. Doesn't come until Feb 19th but so glad the torture is over
Just started playing ezio collection is the fan supposed to be so loud??
Wtf is with the scalpers this time round? They're loving the limelight too absolute dickheads, think they're some kind of genius business people , while also thinking they're a criminal king pin at the same time

Mine goes off like a 747 for about 5 seconds every hour.
You would hope that Argos will do what Game did and limit it to 1 per person.
Not to get you hopes up but Very said mine would come on the 10th of December and ended up arriving late November which was a miracle. Could be the same for you if you get lucky.Finally managed to bag one of these today from Very. Doesn't come until Feb 19th but so glad the torture is over
Yea but why would they? These companies don't care. I'll admit and I didn't want to but I recently got scammed out of 500.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sony-Pla...-/174610342581?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292
And look its still on there. If you guys no how to stop this or shame it on social media I dunno. But it's a scam and has taken 500 of my and others money.
We complained to ebay, tried to stop the transaction by my bank and tried to stop it going through, through PayPal xoom but they didn't stop it. And that was over a week ago!
It gives a WhatsApp contact of 078 8193 6690

So I've spent 500+750 for my ps5. I'm shocked it's still on there I'm hoping one of you guys has the know how to put them to the sword because we don't.
Report him for fraud.
£500 for a PS5 on a fresh eBay account. You can bet he’s had multiple accounts banned.

I hope you paid by PayPal? They normally are good at getting your money back. In future; a) don't buy from scalpers b) if you do, don't buy form accounts with 0 feedback.

Unfortunately that doesn't stop them as they buy from multiple accounts registered to multiple addresses.
This idea may not stop it but will make it a little harder for them is to do click and collect only, and you have to bring proof of address to collect, otherwise no PS5. At the moment it's too easy with home delivery.
In the long run it's going to hit Sony as they've sold loads of consoles that aren't being used, meaning less revenue from game sales.
Ok that is good advice. So with this one, when you enquire through WhatsApp the person says to set ut a PayPal (xoom) account which I left my gf to do because she just said it was through PayPal so I thought ok, sounds legit. But there was no way back from there....someone stop them! I just think there must be a way especially as the ebay listing is still up there now.
Wait, what have whatsapp numbers got to do with a ebay transaction? The more you talk about it the more it feels like a scam which you should have caught onto . I would forward the messages they sent to you to eBay and PayPal. If you buy somethig over ebay don't give money directly through WhatsApp requests do it through the website.
If the price seems too good to be true it normally is.
If you actually made the payment with paypal via the ebay listing you should be fine and they'll reinburse you. If you sent it as a 'gift' payment to him or similar then you're probably fecked as far as getting the money back.
Just saw the exact same thing on reddit -
Safe to say, it's probably best to steer clear of buying a PS5 on eBay (though I would have said that before).

Bought a PS5 from Amazon on release date and have now recieved a 25% off code for PS Plus, Strange timing.
I got this, thought it was a scam at first. My PS plus goes til June but I guess might as well use it.
No offence mate but you should NEVER be buying anything off of somebody through EBay that is directing you to Whatsapp, that’s just common sense I’m afraid.
There’s plenty of legit sellers on Ebay and almost all of them are selling it at ludicrous prices so if you came across one for close to retail price telling you to contact them through WhatsApp then you shouldn’t even be looking any further, close the fecking page and move on. Right now you are not going to get one at retail price from anywhere like EBay. Don’t fall for terrible scams like that man.

Same. Had to check if the order number matched. Anyway, I won't be using mine so if anyone needs it PM me.
In more positive news mine got dispatched yesterday from Game, hopefully here tomorrow and I’ve got Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday off work, buzzing even though I know the missus is going to be sniffing for attention as soon as it gets here and the kids will be on my case too haha
Especially if the seller has no feedback and the account is brand new.
I do find it hard to sympathise with people buying, or attempting to buy from scalpers. They're as much of the problem as the scalpers themselves.
I got two codes
Didn't redeem the one sent on the 15th until today after they sent the second code through.
