We can now confirm that JB Hi-Fi will be taking PS5 pre-orders in store starting today with stock set to arrive on or after January 21st.

As of today, stores have received their allocations for the next shipment meaning that they can now take pre-orders for the drop happening next week. You’re best to call your local JB Hi-Fi before heading in just in case they have already pre-sold out.

EDIT: Few replies to the Tweet confirming success at preordering at JB. https://twitter.com/PressStartAU/status/1349913754532679680

YMMV but don't give up

EDIT2: "Just spoke to my local, all stores are taking preorder in-store now, according to one rep. Wouldn’t take my details over the phone though, so need to head in and take care of it. Will report back."

EDIT3: "Local JB (Perth) confirmed they're taking preorders with full payment"

EDIT4: "Just made the preorder at northland. Was told stock sometime next week"

Mod: Check comments below, before calling your local store(s) regarding availability.

Edit 2/2: Some stores/users are reporting preorders are available in store again. Comments

      oh dear, I am worried about the same thing as you….. T_T

      nope - just wait until others have heard they are ready to pick up and then call your store.

    • qu4ng88 on 18/01/2021 - 11:54

      I wouldnt worry if you didn't get a confirmation SMS, they asked for my mobile number and looked me up on the system (I have a jb account) and confirmed my name, I didnt receive a SMS confirmation.

    • blambo10 on 18/01/2021 - 12:02

      I had the same concern as you, I just called the JB where I secured the pre order,
      Expressed my concern and they asked me to quote back my phone number, then confirmed my name.

      They confirmed I had secured it, the specific store also advised that they don't sms for preorder confirmation.

    • nick198712 on 18/01/2021 - 13:13

      I Rang my local store and asked them the same, They advised they will send a SMS on the day for pick up. Once you pick the item up they provide a tax invoice onsite.

  • wswgin on 18/01/2021 - 16:11

    After 2 of my preiovus orders got canceled, I'm still not confident that they will have stock this week…they said starting from 21th Jan, but could be at a later date.

    • Viospeed on 19/01/2021 - 10:27

      Why did 2 of your previous orders get cancelled?

      • Stoibs on 19/01/2021 - 11:47

        I think we're all a little on edge after The Good Guys situation.. =(

      • wswgin on 19/01/2021 - 11:49

        One from goodguys and one from target

  • Toffcuz on 19/01/2021 - 15:25

    So has anyone reveived a confirmation in any way for this etc email, sms text, call?
    I havent received anything and just want to know if anyone actually has. Cheers

    • Cmaz on 19/01/2021 - 16:19

      Nope. I think its after 21st that they will start contacting us.

  • Guybrush57 on 19/01/2021 - 19:53

    Strange that some people have said their JB's have insisted on nothing less than full payment for preorders whereas mine insisted on nothing more than $50.

    • Stoibs on 19/01/2021 - 21:28

      Indeed. I wasn't even asked one way or the other, Disc or Digital.
      Just went through the motions of getting my details, and then when it came to pay anything the balance was $749.

      • Rojohe on 20/01/2021 - 07:42

        I just realised they didn't specify what PS5 version I was putting a deposit down for. I'll be annoyed if it's the digital lmao

          +1

          Haha. From what I've been reading (including from the guy that put my order down) they barely got many, if any digital models in.
          You should be fine :P

  • saintpotter on 20/01/2021 - 10:57

    Anyone heard from JB? Quite honestly wouldn't mind another $100 gift card like Good Guys did.

        5:29pm Friday,
        I had to pay in full though,
        Still thought I would get a call saying it was cancelled.

        Fortunately not

          Mine was from the Home center JB.
          Haven't got a text or called them yet. Will wait a day or so.
          (in the meantime the Good Guys got back to me about that email-order too, so now I'm juggling and deciding what to do or to wait; whether to cancel somewhere etc. :P)

  • pepto on 20/01/2021 - 12:56

    I just went into the Brisbane Queen St JB and asked and they said that they might be getting this afternoon or tomorrow and that a text would automatically be sent out once they are scanned into the basement.

    Not long now!

        I got my name down at the CBD century City store. They weren't asking for deposit.

        Did you have to put money down?

        • mrboysys on 20/01/2021 - 17:38

          I have no idea where CBD century City is? Im talking about the Forrest Chase Store in Perth.

      • Guybrush57 on 20/01/2021 - 22:13

        HIM cards bought at 10% off during Zip Pay 10% off December Saturdays.

        $749.00 x 10% = $74.90
        $749.00 - $74.90 = $674.10
        $674.10 x 10% = $67.41
        $674.10 - $67.41 = $606.69

        I'm glad I got it for much cheaper as it means an even tidier profit when my new eBay listing sells. Kidding about that last part.
