Update: Best Buy is now sold out of PS5 Please check our PS5 restocking guide for other retailers and the latest availability information Best Buy is currently restocking the PS5 Right now, you can order the standard disc version of the PS5 for $499 at this electronics retailer; the PS5 digital version is currently out of stock This inventory run is almost certain to be gone in a matter of minutes, so don't delay Last week was a very busy week for PS5 restocking, and I feared that this week there would be almost no PS5 restocking, but I'm glad to see that's not the case

It is quite unusual to see PS5 restocking on Thursday Retailers tend to restock on Fridays It is even more unusual for Wal-Mart and Best Buy to restock at the same time Walmart's restock sold out within seconds, though

As with most retailers, pre-setting up a Best Buy account is a top priority You want to make sure your payment details and address information are saved in advance, saving you valuable time at checkout That could be the difference between securing a PS5 or leaving empty-handed

It should also be noted that Best Buy does not currently offer delivery of PS5 consoles - the order process is done online, but you must choose to pick it up in-store Therefore, if there is no Best Buy near you or you are unable to visit your local store, Best Buy may not be your PS5 retailer

Jake Randall, an inventory tracker on YouTube, has a great guide to the best process for actually checking out with a PS5 at Best Buy Refresh the product page until you see either a yellow "Add to Cart" button or a gray "Please Wait" button if the item is restocked If the latter appears, do not refresh and wait for the button to change to a yellow "Add to Cart" button

Once you are able to add the item to your cart, you may see a message that the PS5 is no longer in stock If so, you will need to change to where the system is stocked Landor recommends that if PS5 is shown as out of stock anywhere, leave the page as it is and open a new page Repeat the above process until the "Add to Cart" button reappears, then return to the original page you opened and select the location again

Best Buy, like other retailers, releases PS5 inventory on a rolling basis, so you may have another chance to get your PS5 even if it shows as sold out when it is restocked Spending time on this process may pay off, as others may give up and lose patience
