“We are making every effort with the supplier to get more inventory. We will provide additional updates once more information becomes available. ”
It’s almost identical to Amazon’s PS5 warning words, except that the company “will make every effort to deliver the item to you once it is released.” Perhaps the semi-automated nature of email is an indication that Amazon is just wary, but at the moment it’s impossible to know.
This is just the latest shock in the pre-order process, to put it mildly, already very stressful. By publishing the date and time when the pre-order would open, Microsoft began a brilliant comparison with Sony, the process quickly turned into a bedlam.
Our own head of Matthew Murray testing outlined his own experiences trying to get the unit here. “All the websites were overloaded in one way or another, and all gave us weird error messages and problems,” he said. Amazon was no exception with the bugs for the Series X, and there is no option to buy the entry-level Series S.
Amazon email leaves Day One One optimists in a difficult situation. After all, that’s not to say they won’t get a one-day machine, just that they “don’t”. So, what do shoppers do if more pre-order options appear in the next few weeks? Are they doubled? Or do they just roll the dice and hope Amazon delivers figuratively and literally?
While Microsoft did not follow up with Sony to apologize for the free-for-all free order or promised more units in advance, the company tweeted that it “expected[s] More consoles will be available on November 10th. ”
Given that November 10 is actually launch day, it’s probably a limited consolation for those who think they’ve explored the chaos to land on a day-one console. However, if you are currently empty handed and no pre-order stock appears between now and then, then you set your alarm in early November 10th.
