TheLeon Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I follow some alerts on Discord, and I might just unsubscribe from those at this point. It feels useless. I hate getting my hopes up like that. It's easier to pretend that these new consoles just don't actually exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah there is a youtube stream that sends off an alert any time some new console is in stock and every time the alert goes off they are gone. Even just sitting on the site randomly refreshing doesn't do much either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I'm also so conflicted in which console to buy first. Gamepass and my gaming library says xsx. Ps5 has great game though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucoe Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I'm still amazed at how difficult it it to obtain a new console this generation. I know scalpers are out of control, but I can't believe they're controlling the entire market, because I know a lot of people are still getting these things, but the difficulty is absurd for a type of good.

TheLeon Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I just got an alert for the Series X at Best Buy. Some are listed as available at nearby stores, but the cart button say "Please wait". That will quickly turn to "sold out" before I get a chance. It's maddening. And Best Buy is particularly frustrating. They say "every few minutes, we're going to release more inventory" which just keeps you there uselessly refreshing constantly. Just tell me you're sold out so I can move on with my day.

That's how I got my last XSX is by refreshing the Best Buy app until it said "Add to Cart". Was actually pretty easy compared to the pre order shit show that happened when they first released.

TheLeon Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Well, maybe my complaining actually worked. I finally was able to get through and place an order. It says it'll be available for pickup on Saturday. This is honestly the 50th time I've tried that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stepee Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I think I could have gotten one but I was just curious and didn’t want to actually pay the $500. @best3444 they are still dropping off and on at best buy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just the scalpers. We're also dealing with the lingering effects of the pandemic, the chip shortage and shipping slow downs in global trade. A lot of issues going on at once.

ort Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Do Sony and Microsoft sell them directly to the public? A person should be able to just go buy one from the source and know that while it may take a while, you are in line and eventually you will be shipped a console. Is that not a thing that can happen?

So most likely 2023 is when I get onto next-gen. I would think about the value of your current systems by 2023 and maybe rethink that a little. You can get cash at gamestop, find a xbox now wherever, then sell the shit for cash to replace the cash you spent. You’ll end up with $100 less in trade in than getting in store credit but you’ll lose more than that waiting, they are giving a fair amount still for the pro and X. Im assuming you don’t want to put in the effort to ebay which of course would be the most money back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
