Where should I preorder my PS4 from?

So I want to preorder a PS4 just so i can secure one, but I dont know where to order it from? I have heard terrible things about GameStop messing up a lot of pre orders, and I don't really know about any other places, but I'm thinking about just getting it from Amazon.

I preordered mine at bestbuy.  I was going to preorder at amazon but I want to be there to pick it up in person when it launches.

I think Amazon has so many PS4 pre orders already that they aren't guaranteeing you a PS4 at release, because you gotta figure Sony is going to send each retailer X amount of consoles, and they may already have more pre orders than quantity X.

I pre ordered at Gamestop myself. You have to put $100 down there, so only the people that are serious are going to pre order there. I was told that I was guaranteed a console on release day.

I really think they're going to sell out, because of how cheap they are, it's going to be the holiday season, and the launch line-up is looking good.

GAME Or Amazon

I'm not pre-ordering for two reasons. I have reason to believe my wife is going to surprise me with a launch unit. If not, I'll get one after launch through Amazon since my job gives Amazon gift cards, I can apply those to the total cost.

best place is walmart to preorder your ps4

I have the same question.  But does anyone know if any of these places offer a warrenty?  I'll be getting a warrenty simply to be safe, but I don't particularly want it from Best Buy since I feel like they're going to be going out of business soon enough. 

Anyone know if Target is offering any type of preorders/warrenty?  I'd imagine Gamestop will, but just checking around.

I would go with Amazon.

Amazon ran out of the launch day consoles, but they also started offering bundles that are also guaranteed to be available launch day.. 

I went with GameStop. The only reason I didn't choose Amazon is because they did not guarantee release date shipping. Hopefully at GameStop I can pick it up the following morning as I do not want to deal with potential large crowd at midnight.shaunchgo

its guaranteed for the launch day edition console and for the bundles via amazon prime 2 day shipping. 

i went with gamestop so i can pick it up at midnight

So since i preordered my PS4 with GameStop, does that mean I can go into my local GameStop and pick it up on launch day? Or should I cancel it and go with Amazon?

I preordered mine from Bestbuy, not a fan of the company but it's only about 2 miles from my house and I didn't want to give money to Gamestop, which is right next door to BB where I live. Bad choice either way but if it gets a PS4 in my hands in a timely fashion then I'll live with it.

I pre ordered at Gamestop on Monday. The guy told me I was guaranteed a console on release day. When I look at my slip, it says that they hold your console for 2 days... meaning you can get it at midnight on launch day, or regular hours that day or the next.

I would've ordered from Amazon, but not after they were saying you weren't guaranteed a console at launch... I really think they're going to sell out, and you could end up waiting months for one... although people are saying game bundles are still being guaranteed for launch at Amazon... I don't want to commit to any particular games until I see reviews or more info on them.
