I think there were very limited issues with it over sold to scare people into staying official

Awesome! Thanks for this - grabbed two of the mini controllers for the boys for when we travel.

Crikey! They weren't kidding when they said they were mini controllers!

State of that white pillow

GRID Legends has fallen to £16.95 on PS5 at The Game Collection:

Really was so stupid to release this alongside GT7. But their stupidity is our gain, as it’s hit ultra cheap within just 4 months.

Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition for PS5 is £17.95 at both The Game Collection and Amazon. Oh Dante!

Bought that on an impulse straight away. Great price. Thanks for posting the deal.

They might be cheap, but they are incredibly slow with posting. I received a tracking number 6 days ago but apparently a delivery still hasn't even been attempted.

Not in a rush though, just hope it turns up.

My switch Dock shipped the day after I ordered then arrived the day after that.

Hmm, maybe I should chase. Thanks.

God this xrocker shower are a bunch of clowns. My order seems to have got lost in transit so they asked if I wanted a refund or replacement (I requested the later). 2 days later and no confirmation of my request from their customer service.

I’m guessing by the time they get back to me they will tell me they can no longer honour the price I ordered at.

Hopefully I am proven wrong, but I won’t be using them again either way.

Oh and the “contact us” link on my original order just bounced the email. Have not seen that undeliverable message for about 15 years, so I guess it was worth it all for the nostalgia.

Live A Live is £29.99 at Smyths Toys

Kind of tempted by that even though I have XC3 on pre-order and not enough time to even play that.

Did you get sorted? Same as the others here things went promptly with buying controllers

I’d ordered the little bear one for my daughter which arrived quickly too without any problems.

One did turn up in the end. I’m not sure if it’s the original one very delayed or the replacement that I requested (and they told me they had shipped). The tracking number for the first still says no delivery attempted yet and the second tracking number says an error occurred.

So yes, company is not the issue - it seems to be a Royal Mail situation. But I stand by X Rocker’s response time being pretty poor.

I sent them a third email asking them to cancel my free replacement (just in case the one I received was actually the original order but very delayed) but got no acknowledgment on that either.

I would quite like to order one of their mini controllers, but I have lost faith in it ever turning up, so will pay more from somewhere else (Amazon).

Mini is maybe a bit too mini.

That’s good to know. I was initially looking at the full size one that is a quid more, but it describes it has being good for “junior players”, which confused me no end.
