Good luck everyone.
P. S. Site is down, I was able to see the price only once, so I am not sure what this bundle includes.
- It is all gone.

Seems it
LOL! Server down!
Don't bother I managed to get through once and it was already removed.
Gamesmen always put out token stock .
If you live in vic its 30 bucks for shipping
site is down .. and already sold out
Got a discord notification for PS5 stock and clicked it straight away - site was already down.
I'm curious to know if it was the fact that multiple people saw it the same time I did and clicked the link, or bots saw the PS5 was live and immediately tried to check out, taking the site down. Possibly both?
I received the email, clicked the link and site was already down.
Unbelievable it’s always these stupid bots that take stock from people who really want to buy it for the kids. Scalpers make me SICK!
Probably got negged because you're talking shite
I don't think retails stores are allow to sell more than the RRP price recommended by the company. They might add a game and an extra controller and changed the prices but the console price shouldn't be more than what the company set it.

Computer stores selling GPUs slowly disappearing into a hedge…
@HandsomeMonkey: But they're not paying RRP either.
Because you talk shit
Got though….ooops web Page cannot be found
bahahahahaha server is down.
Well maybe people should stop smashing it, PS5s are apparently like gold bars everyone wants to invest in them.
I would hate go get a PS5 right now I am so glad I got it 6 months ago :D its like 10 times worse now.
I was lucky enough to get a release version from Amazon
Not really last month Amazon drop lasted around 10 mins.
in April 2021 it lasted 30 to 40 min before it sold out.
Nah the amazon one only lasted a minute, it just looks like it stays up on the website but you can't checkout after that first minute.
Madness that it's still near impossible to get your hands on a PS5 over a year since launch.
Really makes me thankful I managed to pick one up - good luck to those legitimate buyers who are wanting one. Don't give in to scalpers!
it was possiable if you did it 6 months or more ago. For the late people its not worth it any more. And its just going to get worst next year.
Gamesmen are filth. They lob in accessories no-one wants (or in this case, no-one can actually see in the deal) to charge "overs" on their console offers. It's pretty crappy from a large gaming retailer, I'd expect these antics from scalping scum.
The history of Gamesmen is why they don't release them at retail .
They know they are worth double on the open market and make the play .
It's not a big retailer, they have literally just one single store in Australia. These are typical mom and pop store dressed up as a large retailer. Do not expect anywhere near the same service and support as you would from the likes of Target, Big W, JB and Amazon.
I would rather support the larger companies than these mom and pop shops. Larger stores look after me, I'll look after them.
You can be big and not own a shop. ToysRUs /Hobby Warehouse .
Sony should have the brains to release them themselves but that too big a tactic hehe :)
Sony does sell them on their online store (whenever they aren't sold out) and unfortunately bundles in a controller at full retail price usually as well. Pretty poor if you ask me as no one actually sells the controllers at RRP.
Who did they swindle at Sony to become a retailer for PS5’s…
Their website and operations were built to handle like 10 visitors. And these “bundles” are a pathetic excuse for them to charge close to scalper prices.
100% this and they’ve been doing it for years. Would rather give the money to some leech on marketplace. Atleast they are scalping us honestly
you sound like someone that doesn't have a PS5 yet because you waited too late? or not quick enough?
I actually have a PS5 - no need to be petty. I am just commenting on the antics being used by Gamesmen to fleece extra dollars out of customers on high margin accessories. They're barely better than scalpers. There are many examples, here is another.

Where that person that said they a small shop selling 430 alone with that forced rubbish on the top of the console :)
business is unfair but unfortunately there are a large portion of stupid or desparate people in the community that will buy these. Scalpers are just a business unfair or not to the customer the price of anything is a rip off. Its the same with things like graphics cards and PC parts legit business are over charging those things but people will gladly buy it. These are the times we live in the sooner you accept that the more you can move on from it.
Totally agree. Gamesmen is the Mobileciti of the gaming world. All they need to do to be the same is dabble in grey stock and they are there.
The actual store in Penshurst is great. Never had a bad experience in 30yrs. Definitely much better service than what I've experienced in JB, Target, EB etc..
I don't go there for every game I buy, but can't fault them whenever I have.
@Redbull1609: Yeah whatever. They treat you okay after they scalp you enough lol. Try return something then tell me about your experience. Small business like this will never be at the same level as a big store.
@Fuzor: Like I said, never had a bad experience. From the sound of it, you have a lot of experience in having to return stuff all the time to everywhere
@Redbull1609: Nope but change of mind returns aren't that big of a deal when everything is still sealed and unopened. Happens to me sometimes and I'm much better assured by the big retailers.
Whilst we are assuming things about each other, sounds like you might be one of the owners/associates of gamesmen. Almost no one here would even know that they have been operating for 30 years. 30 long years of charging even higher than EBGames but with none of the reach of EB lol.
@Fuzor: Nah, no association. Have lived not far from the shop since '89 or so. You even used to be able to try games in store before buying, obviously a bit hard these days, but great back when you could. Also for the place to still be standing after what happened in '95. Different opinions I guess. That's the beauty of this site
Honestly, there is no point posting ps5 deal here. By the time it published, stock would be all gone. Unless it's like instore pre order kind of information.
I got my ps5 thanks to an ozbargain psot… when big W had stock. for…. ~ 4 minutes 0.o
Cannot find any PS5
OP it's probably sold out before you hit submit post lol
this is only for those people receive the email.
I have got one with the link in the email a few minutes ago. It takes about 1 mins to redirect from cloudflare to their website. However, I can still get it. After I put it in the cart, I see a message that the PS5 is sold out and the one in my cart can still checkout. After the checkout, the link is no longer working.
By now there must be a special place in hell for scalpers.
This site never work always dead when they have stock
I just rang up 5 or 6 JB hi-fis until I spoke to a bloke who told me he had in coming stock and if I put down $50 they would call me and a week later they called me and I had a PS5
The site is down
This wasn't meant to be published outside of their mailing list. I also got the email. This is how scalpers will get their hands on it and the people who joined their list now won't have an opportunity.
Doesn't bother me.i had one on launch but it's really not fair to the ones who want it
Screw the Gamesmen and their BS bundles, they are worse than scalpers.
That Xbox bundle was an absolute rort and now this.
Yep, have a down doot from me, Gamesman
Is the site down?
