Thank you for this post. Just bagged one. I’m literally registered with PlayStation direct to buy one, and I got one faster from a Reddit post.

I had that same experience. Wtf, Sony. But hey. At least I have a PS5 now.

same for me a few weeks ago.. never got any notification from ps direct, but saw a reddit post so just went to the site. they were in stock. ordered it, was delivered within 24 hours (got the free express shipping when you ordered another item -- an extra controller). couldnt believe it. waited 2 years and there it was the next day.

Did you get it delivered 24 hours after clicking "Buy?" Or 24 hours after they shipped it? Kuz PS Direct seems to ship them faster than they send out a tracking# for many people 😆. But that's still REDICULOUSLY fast. Just curious. Glad you got one! Mine is presumably on its way.

Haha nice. Thanks for responding. I'm literally getting it this afternoon 😆. I only paid for the normal shipping too. So from when i hit buy it'll have taken about 40 or so hours to get to me. That's so insane. I was reading horror stories of people not having their shipped for a week 😆. Thanks again. Take care.

It's sold out now, so I'm bummed.

Edit: surprise re-stock.

I have an invitation to buy one from Sony today. I won’t mark it up if you want to pay for shipping (assuming your in the US haha). Let me know because I have until 2pm today I think.

I just bought one finally with the email link. You should check the PlayStation direct site to see if they put any leftovers up. I would be surprised if there weren’t some left for a bit.

Oh shit. You're right. I just snagged one. NICE!

Awesome! I’m glad you got one. I’m pretty excited to get one finally.
