My son's looking to get a PS5 and they seem in pretty short supply.  I think pre-ordering from JB HiFi seems like the best option.  Does anyone have any other good tips on where best to source one?

There are existing threads for this but yes the best option is to physically order in-store.  Mostly it's the bundle boxes available, with a bundled game total around $1000.  But you'll have to actively check every day and be patient until it happens.  Just went through this for my nephew.  Buying in late 2022 is a completely different experience than the couple of PS5's I bought in 2021.

Moved to Gaming as it is not a report of Bargain or Deal.

There are heaps of scam listings on Facebook especially for high value items. I would never buy anything high value off Facebook for this very reason.
