The Good Guys stores are apparently taking pre-orders for stock arriving in 4-6 weeks. Given that drops are still selling out instantly, this may be the quickest way to get a PS5. You’ll need to give them a 20% deposit and it’s worth calling your store before going in.

According to AustraliaPS5 on Twitter, these are the stores that are taking orders of both the PS5 standard edition and PS5 digital edition.

    Is it still a pre-order if the console has been out for over 5 months? Surely just an 'order' now awaiting stock. 🤔

      Best console launch evah

      • Hybroid on 16/04/2021 - 12:26

        Well PS3 & PS4 launches weren't too dissimilar and there wasn't a pandemic on then affecting global manufacturing and logistics. They also sold far less units than PS5 has to-date.

    pre order and wait for months. TGG are hopeless with consoles.

    Feel like this should be on a forum instead of a deal.

    • Steakz on 15/04/2021 - 12:19

      I suppose alot of people are still after the console, don't see why an informative post that will benefit others shouldn't be on the front page.
      I for one never visit the forums, live and front page is good enough for me.

    Worst console launch ever, I now regret not getting a PS4 Pro during last years deals ;(

    • Nicko99 on 15/04/2021 - 12:24

      I got a perfect PS4 Pro on Gumtree for $200, sans controller. Very happy. Keep your eye on there and ebay

      • Ebaygiftcards on 15/04/2021 - 12:41

        I sold my PS4 Pro plus controller for $600 during the stock shortage last year

      Why was it the worst console launch ever? Thought OZB posted quite a few good deals.

      Quite a lot of OZBers got a PS5 by paying $100 or $50 deposit and trade in old console, accessories, games to EB Games. A guy next to me when I was doing the trade in walked out with a $900+ EB World card.

    • henno on 15/04/2021 - 14:11

      I was contemplating waiting for the PS5 but eventually pulled the trigger on a PS4 Pro when the deals became too good to pass up.
      I do not regret that decision one bit.

  • OzFrugie on 15/04/2021 - 12:15

    Why is there a shortage? Is it going to continue?

    Do people want disc version or digital version more?
    I assume disc version as it can play both disc and digital games?

    • Hybroid on 15/04/2021 - 12:22

      There's global silicon shortages affecting supply for CPUs, GPUs and APUs across the board from desktops to laptops to game consoles to even car production. It doesn't look like it's going to let up for a good while yet.

      Disc version is recommended as you get the best of both worlds and physical disc copies are far cheaper in Australia than digital purchases.

      I try to get a gauge by looking at what's selling on ebay more, but it's really quite hard to say

    • Nilfunds on 18/04/2021 - 22:23

      digital - no more disk swapping.
      means zero reason to get off the lounge :)

    Preordered from Oxley 10 mins ago, 20 deposit, no one in store, 3 counter staff on phone answering ps5 questions

    • Hellolol on 15/04/2021 - 12:27

      I just called Oxley and they said they aren’t taking preorders on the phone.

      I don’t understand why Sony just increase the price to match the lack of supply.

        I don’t understand why Sony just increase the price to match the lack of supply.

        Totally agree, why should we have to compete with people who can't afford as much money as us! They should just double the price and let only elite people own it.

          this is exactly what has happened with video cards.

      • [Deactivated] on 15/04/2021 - 12:51

        This isn't even a sensible option. It has been heavily advertised for 599, 749 Could you image the bad PR if we increase the price just because you want one? No, you didn't think that far ahead. Would it work or would it just increase the scalpers prices? We don't know.

      • augernised on 15/04/2021 - 13:16

        Im sure that would be great for PR

  • Nicko99 on 15/04/2021 - 12:21

    Can confirm Chatswood NSW is taking preorders, got mine.

    • mem17 on 15/04/2021 - 12:39

      Did you get a separate phone call to confirm pre ordering / deposit / etc. ?

  • storyofstory on 15/04/2021 - 12:41

    Do we have to visit store or the preorder can be done via call?

    • Kngrhino on 15/04/2021 - 13:54

      One store wouldn't do it for me over the phone, next store would. Estimated 6-8 weeks on orders

    I had a digital version, costed too much for games, sold it then got Xbox series X, don't have many games. going to buy PS5 disc version.

    • pufffdragon on 17/04/2021 - 00:36

      Costs too much you say, yet you have no problem buying 3 of the latest consoles that would set you back at least $2000 in total. Hmm..ok.

  • Autonomic on 15/04/2021 - 12:47

    Gepps X sold OUT. Apparently since 10 am.

    I read this as there being a playstation with a five disk stacker. That would be great for the car.

    Hey everyone, give your stores a call. Was at work but called the Thomastown store and they send a payment link to my phone where I paid in full. Sure 4-6 weeks away but that's much better than Christmas 2021! Hyped

  • putshan on 15/04/2021 - 12:52

    If everyone waits a week we can order during the latitude deal and get $50 off.

    Who's with me!?

    • Kngrhino on 15/04/2021 - 14:57

      I got $80 cash back through my commbank. Random that I saw reward on my app when I was making a transfer, then 10 minutes later saw this deal 🤑😛🤑

  • alitadark on 15/04/2021 - 12:53

    Got my preorder in at casula!

    • Kngrhino on 15/04/2021 - 13:56

      I pre ordered today from GG, but would probably buy one if they came on Amazon ready to go too. It's not like you'd have a hard time getting rid of the surplus one 😂🤣

    All NSW stores gone except Campbelltown and Castle Hill.

    Castle Hill only has Digital Edition.

    Campbelltown has ~20 left at time of posting.
    You must go in person to preorder from Campbelltown

  • okbob007 on 15/04/2021 - 15:06

    Recording to @AustraliaPs5 on twitter, Amazon and Target may have a drop this week. Don’t worry if your nearest BigW is out of stock:)

  • Sammyboy on 15/04/2021 - 17:04

    Probably get their stock before EB Games. I'm still waiting and there's at least 10 preorders from that store to get it before me. They told me lucky to get it by May. Maybe June

  • JustNotGod on 15/04/2021 - 17:45

    Ordered at Artarmon…guy said ETA is around 3months.

    • okbob007 on 15/04/2021 - 18:35

      Called Artarmon, they said that store is not taking preorder at this moment;(

      • JustNotGod on 15/04/2021 - 19:08

        actually i ordered around 4ish….first i called castle hill…they said they OOS….and they told me to try Artarmon…i called Artarmon …the guy put me on hold for about 10 mins if he could take my order on call. Finally he took the order and sent me the text to make a payment. Apologies to post here late!!

        • first in line on 15/04/2021 - 19:26

          Was there around Lunch time at Artarmon. Waiting in line to order and could see that guy was being smashed with so many phone calls asking about PS5s.

  • Ghost46 on 15/04/2021 - 19:40

    I've given up on getting a PS5 till probably some time in 2023 (sarcasm). Sony just can't deliver, which is so frustrating after continually pushing it with ad's online etc.

    • Gmetal on 15/04/2021 - 19:45

      Its not sony, its their chip suppliers cant produce them, theres a worldwide silicon shortage.

    • scud70 on 16/04/2021 - 08:54

      towards end of the year there will be more, but at less than RRP (or a bragain) you are probably correct in assuming 2023 or there about :)

  • Ftanakasp on 16/04/2021 - 13:47

    Amazon had a drop for digital version few minutes ago,

  • bargainman1 on 16/04/2021 - 14:02

    I wanted one originally, but because I haven't been able to easily go out and buy one I've lost interest. I think I can wait till next year… or when ever stock levels become normal.
