First Xbox, and now PS5: the two hard-to-get game consoles seem to be available at Best Buy now. We saw the Xbox for the first time this morning and – at the time this book was written – it still seems to be available. It was (from 12:30 pm Eastern time) joined by both flavors of PS5. Better yet, they are all available at their base price ($ 399 for the PS5 Digital Edition, $ 499 for the Xbox Series X and PS5 with Blu-ray). We are only seeing the $ 299 Xbox Series S available for pickup in stores in some areas.
Instead of forcing you to constantly update in the hope of seeing an “Add to cart” button, Best Buy is taking this more user-friendly automated approach:
Good system, Best Buy! Now, let’s hope you have enough inventory to keep it running.
