Looking for PS5
I am looking for a system to give as a present in March. Unfortunately, they seem to be sold out everywhere. I am wondering if anyone has advice on how to find a brand new one? Located in Calgary.
Would really appreciate the help 
Update - I was able to find one!

Also random Shoppers drug mart will have 1 or two laying around. My brother Inlaw was able to snag one by calling around and lucked out the SDM around him had one

I just managed to get one from Best Buy. You can have it for what I paid when it arrives. PM me to set up the details.

I'm also looking for a PS5, preferably the disc version.
My PS4 is on its last legs and my sons world would collapse if I'm unable to get one before it totally fails (keep getting errors and unplanned power cycles are driving us crazy).
If anyone has it on preorder or something, I'd really appreciate it, as the scalper costs are just crazy.
Send me a PM.
Thanks!

What I do is follow Best Buy gaming account on Twitter and turn on tweet notifications
http://www.twitter.com/BBYC_Gamers
As soon as they get stock they tweet. I get on there and place my order and I have luck more often than not.
Hope that helps you guys out!

no line on a PS5 but have you tried replacing the HD? I had similar issues and fixed them all with a HD swap

I just want to say thank you to Massonite and I now have a PS5 I can give as a present! Super easy to deal with and I really appreciate the nice gesture. Definitely need more people like him in the world!

Just thought I’d post in here first - I’ve got a PS5 disc version with an extra Controller I’m not going to use. I tried Kijiji, but it’s frustrating as hell. I’m not sure if Regulator or anyone else is still in the market, but I’ll sell it at cost ($755.92) for a CPer that really needs it. I prefer to meet somewhere central, as I work downtown. Just drop me a PM.
Edit: spoken for.

Any crystal ball guesses on when PS5 prices will drop a bit?
I currently have a PS4 Pro, which I wouldn't mind selling around $300 while I still can. Transferring to a PS5 would be good, but I haven't been gaming on my consoles in a while. I also don't have a job right now...
