A:AnswerThey will be coming in and out of stock. I would check twitter for restock alerts for Best Buy. After that it’s based on luck and your speed on whether you can push through the console to your cart.
A:AnswerPre-orders are not TECHNICALLY a thing once the product has released, but since there is no "same day pickup" I guess the term could apply. But there is no date confirmed by anyone or for any site. Keep your eye on Twitter on pages who update frequently, as this is how I got mine.
A:AnswerYou have to be patient. I was lucky enough to have one still in the cart when the restock appeared and click checkout. I know its frustrating but the steps best buy has took to stop the bots and scalpers has been a lot better than Walmart,target, amazon ect....
A:AnswerHello! Sorry to hear you're having trouble with purchasing one for your son, who knows is probably dying to get his hands on one. I'm currently 19 and I actually got one around this time last month. It took forever and a lot of hard work to achieve that goal. Following numerous Twitter accounts with updates, staying in the Sony direct queue line every day, I even camped out of a Target for a whole entire night and still nothing. Eventually, I did get one during Best Buy's Black Friday. I stayed up until 3 AM and finally purchased one, I got very lucky lets just say. My advice to you is this since mostly all retailers are not selling in person and probably won't until sometime during the spring. recommend you getting a twitter and following people like Wario64 and turning his notifications on your phone. This is honestly the best way to actually get one. Do not purchase one for over retail it is not worth is and most are still going for upwards of $800. Anyways good luck and let your son know I and millions of people are in his shoes and wish him the best.
A:AnswerWhenever the stock outnumbers the bots that are autopurchasing consoles as soon as they’re available online. I would guess sometime after the 25th
A:AnswerMany orders that are going through now aren’t set to arrive till after Christmas. You won’t be able to find them on the shelves in stores till the spring. There’s a chance that you can get lucky but it’s not an easy task. Sorry for the not so great news.
