Edit: Looks like Big W is beating EB games. Selling the console for $649.
Can use this to price match at JBHIFI and to use this deal and any perks coupons/gift cards you may have.
Then circle back to JB and repeat the cycle until the price drops to $0.01. Then wait for an Ultimate Gift Card cashback and buy a 1c variable load gift card.
Absolutely and then sell it on gumtree for a grand
Well, obviously. What else would someone so savvy do with a PlayStation 5?
Everybody is price matching everybody
its does say but I can confirm this is the Disc version so you are golden.
Where does it say that it's the disk version? I am only asking so that I can point to JB staff to price match?
this for me too…
Just press the ps5 playstation near top left which will bring you to the listing of all ps5 playstion options and it show the digital edition same price as the console or disc edition. That should remove doubt.
Did they drop the price again? Coming up as $649 for me
Yeah its showing up $649, dang this is tempting haha. Price match @ JB and use the 15% off giftcards to buy it.
I'm still thinking if I should wait for the slim or just take the plunge and buy this now.
So only have to pay around $550 by using gift cards?
Yeah approximately around there
Where is the 15% jb hi fi gift cards from?
Ultimate gift card
Perks coupons usually Excludes Apple, Dyson, Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo, Miele, Asko, Mobile Phone Contracts, Dell Built to Order, Pre-Paid Cards & Gift Cards, Pre-Orders, Extended Warranties & Delivery. Cannot be used in conjunction with any other coupon.
I tried to price match with Jb hifi via chat but they don't accept 3rd Party Gift Cards.
Accepted payment methods through the link include debit/credit cards, PayPal, Afterpay, Zip and JB Hi-Fi Gift cards (whether digital or physical). Third party gift cards such as TCN, Westfield, HIM/HER/KIDS cannot be used through this link.
Gift cards in store
I bought a $500 Him gift card and used that to buy a JB gift card; then used the JB gift card through that discounted link
I just tried price matching this in a JB and they said they have to wait on upper management for a decision
So the 19 year old with a lanyard rather than the 17 year old with a lanyard?
The 19yo with a tattoo rather than the 17yo with a tattoo.
Dropped again to $649? What is happening?
Major stores trying to one up each other
Target has dropped to $649 as well lol
Supply > Demand
Everybody who wants a PS5 has already bought a PS5.

Aww :(
They're such party poopers!
Are these discounts in preparation for a new slim model coming out soon?
There must be something everyone knows that we don't…..
Get it through Woolworths rewards market place from big W and get the 10 x bonus reward points worth $30 essentially brining it down to $619.
If you're banking with Macquarie get an extra 4% off getting discounted Woollies Gift cards bringing it down to $594.24
Out of curiosity, why the sudden drop in prices by everyone?
If I get a price match from JB in store, how long does the 15% off gift cards issue? is it instantly and i can buy the cards in store on my phone?
Just bought one at JB, using Ultimate Giftcards.
You can buy $500 plus another $149 total $649.
You will get the gift card within 4 hours.
With the 15% off it worked out to a total of $551.65.
Must be done in store, ask them for price match with Big W $649, JB sells it for $679.
When you get your digital gift card (should come within 4 hours) make sure you add it to your Wallet (Android or Apple) the JB store I went to refused to enter the card credentials manually and only accepted PayPass. So the cards need to be added to your phone with NFC and PayPass payment capabilities.
Scan and pay and voila $551.65 for the PS5.
The Ultimate gift cards discount seems to be finished. Anyone aware of anything similar that's still available?
Unfortunately I just got back from holiday so didn't see it in time, but hoping I can bring the price down a little further somehow so I can justify the purchase with the wife 😬
Best bet is you'll probably just need to buy some ultimate gift cards from someone else at this point
Thanks! Any tips on the best way to go about finding some?
Hmm well you could post a listing on the Ozbargain classifieds section and someone will probably reach out. Though would only expect close around 12%. I have a card or two of mine that I may offload soon but not at the moment.
@bdo207: Yup and preferably buy from someone who has a selling history. Very difficult to near impossible to recover funds if using PayID
Price match it to JB then price match it to OW thento bing lee then to TGG then to lavatech
