Buy PS5: That's the current situation - availability, retailers, and more
Buy PS5
Buying a PS5 or not buying it - that is unfortunately not really the question at the moment, because the availability of the Playstation 5 is still low. New deliveries come only irregularly and are usually sold out within seconds. You don't even need aggressive scalpers and resellers for that. But what is the current situation? Is there any hope of recovery? We'll give you a brief overview.Buy a PS5: April looks meager
Unfortunately, we don't have any really good news: It looks like there won't be any deliveries from Sony in April PS5 give more. This was preceded by a surge in deliveries of several thousand PS5 copies a few days ago, so that the current stocks should be used up. At the earliest from the beginning, in the middle of May, there should be another chance for copies of the Playstation 5, as Gameswirtschaft reports. Well, first of all, that Sony said it had underestimated the success of the PS5. The fact that production cannot simply be ramped up massively is of course due to the corona pandemic. Because of this, the production of chips necessary for all possible devices comes to a standstill - and without chips, no PS5.Buying a PS5: Unexpected delivery problems
The situation was not improved by the aground cargo ship Ever Given in the Suez Canal. During the recovery, which took several days, no goods could be transported on the extremely important water trade route.This will probably not happen again anytime soon, but current estimates suggest that the basic delivery problems of the PS5 are expected to arise move until at least the end of 2021. Nevertheless, Sony celebrates all sorts of sales records, but this situation of constant waiting is of course extremely unsatisfactory for interested buyers.
Buy a PS5: Online retailers are the best chance
The best chance of getting hold of a console is to keep an eye on the various online shops of the retailers - shopping is in the store in large parts of Germany this is still only possible to a very limited extent. But beware of fake shops that try to riot you with supposedly stored goods. We have put together a selection of retailers that you should keep an eye on at the end of the article. Also uses a practical bot that tells you when it is possible to order a PS5 again somewhere. A little shopping cart trick on Amazon can also help you when scalpers are once again massively grazing the field.Sony is also apparently planning its own shop in the foreseeable future, in which the PS5 can then be offered without going through the dealers want. Time and again, the console is also available as an offer as part of cell phone contracts. The delivery times until you get the Playstation 5 (buy now) can, however, take a long time.
