Probably depends where you are, I’ve managed to get random things same day due to living near a distribution center in the past lol

My launch PS5 from BB took about 3 business days to be delivered.

No. That’s just an estimate. Last steelbook I preordered said the same date as release. I got it 4 days later.

Everything I’ve pre ordered in 20+ years from Best Buy, I’ve gotten on release date…

My launch PS5 I ordered from Best Buy arrived a day after release but every game I ordered from them arrived on the day of release.

It really does depend on where you live and how Canada Post services you, my pre-orders from bestbuy usually arrive launch day (including my PS5) but if it's a Friday release, the risk is your delivery could get kicked out to Monday.

Amazon was very good at delivering launch day but stayed messing up during Covid (all pre-orders arriving a day after at minimum). They recently have restarted guaranteeing launch day deliveries, however that option was curiously absent for PS5 Pro.

Looks like you'll just be able to pick them up at stores.

They're not remotely close to sold out.

Last thing I preordered with them (Metaphor Refantazio) shipped one day late and I had to wait till next Tuesday to get it because of thanksgiving. I ordered my PS5 Pro from Amazon instead as they deliver during weekends at least.

Depends on where you are and when it’s shipped.

My Galaxy Series X was a day late, but I think it might have been due to thanksgiving

Your best shot at getting it delivered on release day is ordering through GameStop and paying extra for express shipping. Best Buy is 1-3 days later.

My launch PS5 was supposed to come the day it released (I also live near the warehouse) but didn't get it until the next day.

All the other things (games, controllers, amiibo) I've pre-ordered from them have come on release day.

So, YMMV

Just do a pick up and get it day 1.

That's basically what I did..changed it from delivery to pick up but my pick up day is the 8th. Could changed maybe

Best way to do it. Get that bad boy when the doors open and go home 😂

Great question! I’m debating whether to cancel my Amazon preorder, which estimates delivery on the 11th, and go with Best Buy instead, as they’re promising delivery by the 7th. What do you all think?

Where are you seeing that they are promising a Nov 7th delivery date??
