Oh did it already go live on warehouse?
yeah a bit after 8am is what I read
Appears to have sold out/stock allocated 4min after deal post
Gosh you have to be quick around here, sold out before I even got the alert email…
Sold out already oof
You bought two? Why?
Because… I have two TVs?
Sure bud
I have decided to stop posting console drops here now so scalpers(That aren’t smart enough to code their own bots) have less of a chance ;)
You don't even need a selenium/DomCrawler bot, people just use distill.io and visualping. Super easy. There's also some Discord channels as well for these alerts.
Visualping isn’t frequent enough mate unless you’re actually paying for the bots
This deal was posted ~3min after the bot tweet and soldout within 4min with only 9 clickthru at the time when I marked it OOS, not a huge amount of traffic to have an effect on the limited stock levels.
I'll keep posting deals as soon as I can so people get a chance to buy one, at the moment the only ones winning are the ones botting it. As for scalping I saw someone get 30+ consoles from the last months drop just from NL, TW and MA so their 'restrictions' must be pretty poor and just name based or something. As TW says onsite, 1 per person per batch. What about 5 people in the same household? They probably give no (profanity) and ship it anyway? Better people here have a chance
Please do keep posting, I think the bulk of us here are just average people trying to get their hands on one for personal use :) keep up the good work. It was because of a cheapies post I managed to secure my PS5 and I am forever thankful for that.
Natalie in Dunedin?
What the heck - did Microsoft just bring in 100 in the latest shipment or something?! Makes the PS5 seem well stocked in comparison as at least that took hours to sell out at the various shops and have had various drops.
So crappy. I've been monitoring this site and warehouse every hour or so in anticipation, but apparently needs to be every minute! I give up.
Agree, and then some manage to get 2….
I missed it again. I check Cheapies 50+ times a day, still missed.
You'd think with stock issues and every unit selling out they would want to get these in to the hand of the gamers where the profit lives. Seems weird when they have a direct channel to sell to consumers in their own website they could filter as many as they can for sale through there to control multiple purchases until the stock issues ease. Limit it to one per email and street address for a bit to try and stop scalping or put some aside so only those with an active Xbox account can purchase from that pool. Once the gamers actually get their hands on the things the scalping prices will plummet as the market would have gone.
I can't see retailers being too annoyed by this approach, surely they'd also rather gamers who want to buy games and peripherals from them have the consoles instead of them being sealed in boxes with a scalper. Can't imagine there's much profit margin in a console being sold at RRP.
They have some kind of pilot order program for xbox one owners, not sure if available locally.

Was also instock at The Warehouse this morning and sold out within 15min, MA will probably be the last decent retail drop for a while given we have seen HN, JB, NL and TW drop already.
