Honest answer, it's probably best for you to wait until 2021 to purchase a Series X/S. Obviously due to COVID-19 production rates are low. Microsoft alongside Sony are gonna slowly roll out small waves of stock throughout the remainder of the year, which will more than likely be bought out by scalpers because of the high demand of the holiday season. It's the sad reality for now. You either get really lucky and you put in work tryna get a pre order online, buy one from a scalper, or simply miss out until more consoles are readily available.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Covid is playing it's part for sure. It seems Bestbuy has opted for online purchasing only, probably to avoid crowded stores, which is being cleaned out by scalpers using bots. I believe China Tariffs are playing their part too. I went to Bestbuy not long ago and talked to one of their employees about why the new consoles were so hard to get. I asked if it was because of covid and his response was "No, it's because of the China Tariffs". Apparently most if not all of the consoles are Made in China and it's more expensive to ship them here due to the tariffs. He also said Taiwan was being looked at to start making consoles instead of China. It's gonna be a minute just be patient. Don't gine to the scalpers selling for 4X the price.
