The last 2 days, I've had alerts on my phone set up for various stores selling PS5s. I've seen alerts for Target, Gamestop, and Amazon.
In one I got into digital line and got nothing. Another was just sold out 2 seconds in. And on another I added to cart but it was gone before I could actually check out (which was a matter of seconds)
They sell out almost immediately.
How are people legitimately getting one without resorting to scalper prices?
You and me both!!! Been trying for over a year.
AND A BIG F U To all the "I GOT MINE ITS EASY" assholes who flex like its some simple shit. Maybe if you spend your life building bots or on websites 24x7 , but not to people who work and just go off alerts. Go to get one in the shopping cart and hit "checkout" only to be told time and again "no longer in stock.." Then why the f did you put it in my shopping cart. Don't these stores like amazon and walmart take it out of inventory electronically before selling?
How can they put in my cart if they don't actually have it. ITs bullshit!!!!
Also they really need to get like EVGA and have a queue. Where you sign up, pay and wait. I got a 3060ti that way. Took 8 months but i at least got it stress free.
Sony gives random emails but the last one i got they gave it on a sunday night and i had 8 hours to get it. I didn't see the email until i was done work on monday and by that time too late. Who doesn't give 24 hours at least..wtf...
Meanwhile, I was able to get a switch oled 5 days before xmas on amazon, with no hassell. I got it and delvered xmas eve. Loving my new switch upgrade. SMT5 and dying light look amazing on the screen (gf got me those for xmas).
So yeah getting a ps5 sucks and I will keep bitching about it until sony does something to stop scalpers , bots and shitty greedy stores from not caring.
Oh wtf is up with gamestop, bestbuy,, walmart having a $200 premium membership where those people get first dibs... You know who has those accounts rich scalpers. ..F them!
