Help: How to use our Stock Checker and Email Alerts
The PS4 and Xbox One is in high demand and very short supply throughout the World. If you live in the UK and only want UK stockist, then we can help. (If you can’t be bothered to read all this page - Follow @gamestock for News).
When a product stock falls below a minimum threshold GameStock allows you to get back in stock alerts. Getting stock alerts is fast, easy and convenient. You can manage your own alert history (see Image below): You might want to buy from a preferred retailer or any available stockist, but have missed it, you can reset each individually or all.
You will only get stock alerts/price drops for the comparison pages you are subscribed to. If there is no stock shortage, then the system sends only price drops, where there is low stock, you get both types of alert, though it is unusual to get price drop alerts on low stock high demand goods.
Your Control Panel is called My Subscriptions. Joining costs nothing. No fees - No charge - FREE FOR ALL since 2008. First you must register on site. Once registered you can subscribe to back in stock alerts. Many of the best deals are short lived – some items only stay in stock for minutes. Keep an eye on your email inbox.

At first you need to be brought bang up to date as things can change between page views. You will receive a bunch of emails from markeplace sellers that are saying we will let you Order or Pre-order. The timeframe can vary. We do our best to determine whether or not its acceptable to show in stock, if there is too long ie. (dispatched with in 7 or more days) usually we say no stock. At present retailers show pre-order Xbox One now for 2014.

How to fix when your alert history is empty or does not look like the list above.
Remove the subscription, find that stock alert page, add the stock alert subscription.
Check the Green triangle is showing Stock Alerts Activate. *Stock alerts become active on pages when the total number of products in stock falls below 40%.
*Do not order before checking the delivery date meets your needs* Some items show In Stock: because they can be ordered! But you shouldn't! (Unless you are happy with delivery terms)
Be sure, when shops have new supplies of consoles ready to dispatch, the delivery date changes to 1-2 days .
Update: 09:01:2014 From now on stock alerts won't get sent if the due in date is longer to wait than usual order times.

Thankyou
