Just saw a few on eBay already for $980 USD, August 24th will be interesting. how’s the pre order going in the UK today ? Did any of you here were able to get one ?

Isn't against Ebay's TOS to post items that you don't have in hand?

I guess if you call it a preorder it's ok. I bought a blu set the other day from ebay and the seller instantly messaged me saying that it's just a place holder and reffered me to his site where I could buy it. I thought I just did lol. He refunded me the money and didn't bother with it.

I'm a bit hazy with that. It's been over a decade since I last sold on ebay. Anyhoo, I'm going to wait until the regular black PS4 pro is easily available and will buy my games digitally (exclusives to be specific).

I think it’s a good deal, a standard pro is usually £350 and this is £450...the stand is £17, camera is £43 and an additional 1tb is £40, not to mention with low quantity and what the console represents, it should be highly collectible and imo the best looking pro yet...I hope you were/are able to get one pal.

Any word on US pre-orders? I'm thinking Amazon will have it, but haven't heard/seen anything.

dyne · 08-15-2018, 08:20 PM

With the way stuff is usually handled in the US I imagine no pre-orders at all. There isn't even a place holder on Amazon yet that I could find.

Mavrick · 08-15-2018, 08:55 PM

Looks like pre orders sold out within the first minute in the UK. Not surprising really they probably had about 5 available lol.

Wingman1977 · 08-15-2018, 08:57 PM

I'm willing to bet that many stores will get them in the US, but each location will get less than 10 each. Sony are being real prick with the Pro (even with the regular black version)

RustinCohle · 08-15-2018, 09:01 PM

I'm not so sure I even want it now that I saw the unboxing video where it looks MUCH glossier than the pictures. Matte would look so much better, IMO.

I couldn't agree more.

I love Sony but Sony die hard fanboys are still annoying since the xbox 360 rivalry days.

The same could be said for fanboys of any industry (not just video games).

True, true, I see it happen with phones and tv’s often too.

Good luck to those who are buying to keep it and not just to resell it (I f'ing despise scalpers).

Good luck to everyone trying to get one.
