Well got an email at 8pm saying my card had been declined phoned the credit card number, they told me it was probably because it was a large amount. The lady then said i have now authorised the transaction and it should go through second tikme round, so i went back to the retailer and just went to edit card details and put the same ones in again, my order is now in the packing stage, so it should be shipped either tonight or first thing tomorrow morning, which means it should be here first thing friday morning, i have uni and will be working until midnight straight after uni and working all day saturday and sunday so the first chance ill have of even setting it up will be monday.

anyone else had their console shipped or packed ready to be delivered?
 
A number of the online retailers are saying that they will guarantee delivery on Friday for all their pre-orders.
Read an article today from one of the biggest online stores stating that they have the PS3's in their warehouse ready to be dispatched. Busy few days for the delivery guys. :)
 
I have read in a couple of places that the ones that are despatched, shipped to couriers,will have notes on them saying not to deliver till Friday (i.e. they will sit at the couriers warehouse and go out on Friday's delivery runs).

I have no idea if this is true. Do couriers even offer this kind of service?

They do and i would they they prefer it, then they know how much delivery they have in advance. Instead of loads of giant boxes turning up at the sorting center on thursday night.
 
Lots of places had the Wii orders noted as shipped days before the release day. The shops simply had them sitting in the warehouse ready for the delivery companies to pick up and deliver on the correct day.

Good for you. I really have no interest in the PS3, but I can just imagine how excited people must be getting waiting for it. Honestly, just leave. The thread, forum, even OcUK if you would. We really dont need people around making posts like that.
 
I haven't preordered one, I am on the 'wait 6 months' bandwagon but I am jealous of you guys waiting for them because I know how exciting it must be for you right now :)

I hope some of you get them tomorrow, and when you do, post some piccies :)

I feel exactly the same. That day before I got my 360 I was pretty excited. I know it's just a console but so what... my dad gets excited about new golf clubs ;)

You can't beat shiny new toy syndrome. I have no interest in one as it stands but I sincerely hope, and I'm sure you will, all have an excellent, fun time come Friday.

Amen,

Don't see enough posts like this on the forum these days. People who accept they don't want one, have stated why, but are still happy for those who are getting them.

Considering trading my 360 for a PS3.

Only for the blu ray player and the odd bit of gaming (F1) on the side..

What to do :confused:

If people have a 360 and havent had any trouble with it then i am not sure why they want a PS3 , further down the line 2 years or so i believe the PS3 will be the better console when developers get used to it and start to get the most out of the hardware which on the face of it does seem better than 360 in theory so if i didnt have a 360 and didnt mind paying 425 notes for one then i would defo get one , who knows i might even get one in the future but i am looking for my 360 to give me years of gaming pleasure :) .
 
Ended up trading it in ;)

Paid a total of £7 for the console, blu ray remote + resistance: fall of men!
