PS5: where to find consoles this week? Live stocks

PLAYSTATION 5. A new month begins on the planet PS5, a month that we hope will be as prolific as the month of March when we were able to find many consoles on sale. Our take on live stocks.

[Mis à jour le 4 avril 2022 à 11h18] The console war has renewed in vigor after the releases of the Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X just over a year and a half ago. Sony’s latest console wins the popularity contest by quite a distance while the Series X is not ashamed of its in-game performance on the other. Only, since their release, the two consoles are out of stock. A particularly difficult situation for those who wish to get their hands on the PS5, which remains a highly sought-after product, even in April 2022. The fault is an international shortage of semiconductors which is hitting its production hard. Result, it is necessary to keep informed of the evolution of stocks live when possible, in order to be among the first buyers to take advantage of these “drops”. To help you, we monitor stocks live and offer you all our buying advice for the PS5, new or used.

Our update on PS5 stocks from Monday March 4:

• 10:10 a.m.: The PS5 is long overdue today. However, it can be found used and at a high price on the site. Rakuten.

Finding a new Playstation 5 is therefore a bit of a feat. You have to be available when a restocking occurs, validate your basket quickly, deal with the heavy traffic on the sites… To avoid all this, there is always another solution, get the second-hand console. The PS5 is relatively easy to find on resale sites, like Rakuten here. Only, resellers are having a field day on the price of the console, sometimes resold for more than double its new value. Honest deals can slip between the lines, though, so here are the two best new and used PS5 deals on Rakuten. As a reminder, the console is sold new for €399 for its Digital version and €499 for its Standard version.
