Q: QuestionWhat do you define as a “regular basis”? I have been checking on Series X inventory for a months and yet to see it in stock.

Asked 3 years ago by LoyalXboxUser20Years.

• A:Answer “Regular basis” means never. Not really. I have been trying to get one for 2 years straight now. My kids know I love playing Xbox for for Father’s Day 2020 they got me a Best Buy gift card for $575 to get a new Xbox when they came out. Still waiting and I check the app like 10 times daily. I have been told by Best Buy about 20 times a date that they will have them and never happens. I guess in about 3 years when everyone has one that keeps buying them up and selling them for high prices I can finally get one! They really should have a set up by now that we can get a voucher with a guaranteed delivery date for something but nope just always sold out! You can get these all day long on Amazon and Walmart from sellers at $559, with is marked up but reasonable but I have a Best Buy Gift Card! Good Luck!
