Best Buy 'Toggle Trick' Will Guarantee Your PS5, Xbox Series X Purchase For Next Restock; Here's How

Securing a next-gen video game console such as PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X has become a challenge for fans who regularly brawl with other people to get them.

Since the pandemic kicked off in 2020, the demand for these gaming machines has skyrocketed. Since people have limited gaming space aside from their homes, they often opt for these technologies for entertainment purposes.

If you're one of the struggling consumers who often fail in securing a console during the restock event, here's an article that will teach you an effective set of tricks for your next purchase at Best Buy.

Secret Trick to Follow During Best Buy Console Restock

According to a report by Gaming Intel, this fresh trick will help you obtain an elusive console at Best Buy. Whether it's a PS5 or an Xbox Series X, just follow these steps for a sure-fire pickup.

The first step is downloading the Best Buy app. From there, you need to log in with your credentials. Make sure to remember all the details in your account.

Next, search for a console of your choice (PS5 or Xbox) that will depend on your preference and needs. Now that you are on the search page toggle the listing that reads "in stock at X store" a few times.

Pay attention to the notification. If the "in stock toggle" is switched on and the console appears, Best Buy has more likely some stocks that will be sold for the next restock event.

Remember that this indicates that some people canceled their orders from the retailer. This means that slots are open again for potential PS5 or Xbox buyers.

Go to the store and chat with its Customer service. Ask the staff to check the SKU for the following consoles. The regular PS5 has an SKU of 6426149 while the Digital version has 643016. The Xbox Series X bears 6428324.

If the customer service says that there's no stock anymore, ask the same question to the manager or Electronics department of Best Buy.

On top of that, we recommend you do this trick on weekends. Ideally, you can also try these steps five days after the last Xbox Series X or PS5 restock.
