GameStop/EB Games Announces PS3 Pre-Orders

GameStop/EB Games Announces PS3 Pre-Orders

None

Since only 400,000 PlayStation 3 units are allotted to ship to the US and Canada for the launch, we are all wondering when and where we can begin pre-ordering the system. Here’s official word from EB Games/GameStop:

“GameStop and EB Games will begin accepting limited pre-orders for the PlayStation 3 console on Tuesday, October 10, on a first come, first served basis. Due to extremely limited supply, we expect to deplete this allocation very quickly, most likely in minutes. We will not accept additional pre-orders at tihs time. To avoid and unnecessary trip we strongly recommend you call your local store to determine availability. A $100 reservation deposit is required, which can be funded with cash, credit, or trade. As we cannot control production and shipping issues by the manufacturer, a reservation deposit does not guarantee receipt of a system available to purchase at launch. Reservations/ Purchases are limited to 1 per household.”

That means you better get out there right away and order your PS3 if you are determined to get the system at launch and not spend three times the price on Ebay.
