lol, me too! I hope you aren't an Elite Plus Member like I am, thinking maybe you can get a first crack or heck the email slightly prior to the pre-order start (by slightly, I am thinking 10 min before not 3 hours after). Best Buy shouldn't blame Sony, Sony doesn't control their website plus Sony said they would start pre-orders Sept. 17th not Sept 16th before they even announced the date. Best Buy sucks and I am taking all the sales my real estate company gives, somewhere else. Literally anywhere else and won't mind paying more if I get treated better.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I agree 100%
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can't hold Sony responsible for retailers jumping the gun. Last I checked, I didn't sign up for preorder notifications through Sony. BestBuy isn't without fault here.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They may be in stock, they may not. They will know how many thay have been allotted though but pre order means ordering before the release date so anything ordered up to that day is a pre order (Nov. 11th is still a pre order).
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.When they sent the initial email, they were still available. You just had to pay in full. I checked for 12hrs straight and made it to check out each time.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It is my understanding both Sony and Microsoft authorized less than a dozen pre-order units at each location.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.At least you got the email. We didn’t receive an email, just happened to look on the site. Then spent an hour trying to checkout for the site to say it’s sold out so we’ve removed it from your cart. Thought they were better than GameStop, but I guess they’re not.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Sony is to blame for the entire debacle, preorder date and time should have been announced along with release date info on Wednesday's show. A small tweet does not inform their entire customer base, lack of communication on their part left thousands of people with no chance to even try to secure a preorder.
