Lol, I pretty much wrote the same thing before even seeing your post.Honestly if they announced when its gonna go on sale, most people probably would have even less of a chance to get it. When Sony announced the exact time the Playstation 500 million edition was gonna go on sale. Scalpers literally was able to set up bots on every retailers website and it sold out instantly on most sites, with vast majority gone to bots. This random drop actually took both fans and scalpers by surprise but alot more fans were able to get it this way. Sure some people are pissed they missed it but it was honestly the better way imo. The Playstation 500 million console was literally a shitshow when it was put up for sale!!!
Oh,Yeah, and when consoles are given a release date, they literally sell out within minutes because of bots and a bunch of people are still complaining. Remember the 500 million ps4?
Bottom line is, we were told it would be released in June. I had notifications with keyword “cyber” on every deal site starting May 31st. If someone REALLY wanted this system, they had plenty enough time to properly prepare, and buy it. Stop whining.
Ummm it was available around 11pm on Thursday on Microsoft store and Gamestop, and available the next morning at Bestbuy, Newegg, and Amazon until around 11am. As well as Target until the afternoon. So no, it wasn't only available during sleep time. Unless you sleep a whole lot. It lasted for hours and hours on Gamestop, Amazon, and Target.Oh,off, lurker. Pretty sure you don't have the ability to buy something when you're asleep. Your "notifications" wouldn't do jack shit. Go crawl back under the rock you came from.
Lol. Someone is upset. And, actually you can enable alarm notifications on a lot of sites.Oh,off, lurker. Pretty sure you don't have the ability to buy something when you're asleep. Your "notifications" wouldn't do jack shit. Go crawl back under the rock you came from.
I pre-ordered the animal crossing switch and forgot to pickup until the last day.......so glad that I didEven with the animal crossing switch, it was up for days. And then all the sudden it has a huge price surge on eBay, and people are complaining that they weren’t able to get one at normal price.
I personally think it’s a good thing when consoles & limited edition items sell out. After all it is supposed to be LIMITED edition.
There’s nothing worse than stalking deal sites & paying retail price for an item only to see it go on sell for $100 less 5 months later.
Retail price is only a manufacturer suggestion.Blows my mind anyone would pay more than retail for anything...hell, I usually won't even pay retail. How scalping exists is beyond me, but to each his own.
My Best Buy copy shipped an hour after I ordered it, but the delivery got delayed until at least Tuesday.Where did you order from? My Walmart orfer should be here Monday... Best Buy says Friday.
I don't think anyone's Microsoft store order shipped yet. They're probably just slowJust hoping my Microsoft store order ships. Ordered around 3:30am eastern. Still shows as pending.
My guess is that some of the outlets over sold.I ordered one from Adorama when it went up and I got a email yesterday that it's on back order lol. Oh well my best buy order shipped so I'm good. Now to sell my project scorpio edition..
I called Microsoft today about my order saying it was pending and they said that since the order was place on a Friday they don't ship over the weekend because it would be extra money and that they are going to ship it on Monday and it has approximate delivery date of June 10. I was really nervous something had happen or it was going to be cancel but that's what they said.Just hoping my Microsoft store order ships. Ordered around 3:30am eastern. Still shows as pending.
Well, I have been sick, so yeah, I have been sleeping a lot. None of this matters at this point. I was only going to buy it for a gift. I prefer the Gears 5 X that I have.Ummm it was available around 11pm on Thursday on Microsoft store and Gamestop, and available the next morning at Bestbuy, Newegg, and Amazon until around 11am. As well as Target until the afternoon. So no, it wasn't only available during sleep time. Unless you sleep a whole lot. It lasted for hours and hours on Gamestop, Amazon, and Target.
Not in the normal sense, only if someone returned one back to the storeWell, I was really hoping they'd pop back in stock this morning but so far no dice. Damn.
Think any of these will make it to stores?

How clever.A 34-year-old wrote this? Yikes.
Shit, it's gone. I'm eyeing this hard.Saw at least 1 unit come back at $299 on amz just now.
Thanks for the tip! Didn't snag one but it's on my browser bar now.https://www.newegg.com/microsoft-1-tb-xbox-one-bundle/p/N82E16868105271?Item=N82E16868105271
Unfortunately it isn't $299. And they don't allow returns.
Edit: And it's out of stock again.
It lights up and makes noises! That’s differentThat's cray... mine is still in Utah so I won't be so lucky. Not like it does anything thag my current 1X doesn't do anyway, but still.
Just got all 8 of my orders ready for pick up at Best Buy on Thursday! Can't Wait!
That's some serious weaksauce, my 24 units trouces you and I don't need to go pick them upJust got all 8 of my orders ready for pick up at Best Buy on Thursday! Can't Wait!
I was kidding btw, only got 2 for me and a buddy of mine. Does suck for people that actually wanna keep the console but instead people are buying multiples to screw over the real collectorsIt does really suck knowing some people here bought multiple Cyberpunk systems to resell when someone like me actually wants to keep the console. Oh well.
Relax, in case you haven't figured it out I was just messing with him, and I doubt he really got 8 just from bestbuy. Probably was just trying to get a reaction like the one he just got from you.It does really suck knowing some people here bought multiple Cyberpunk systems to resell when someone like me actually wants to keep the console. Oh well.
Its FedEx who knows what will happen, of all the carriers I always have a terrible experience with them..So my Wal-mart order is supposedly actually out for delivery, for reals this time. Wal-mart forgot to put my apt # on the label so I called and got that fixed.
Best Buy still hasn't shipped...
