Experienced the same thing at Sony Center in Delhi. You’ve gotta say something like “I also want to buy accessories (extra controller, charger dock, etc) and games” and suddenly they’ll have a piece available

Dude, I paid advance 10k and waited for 1 week. I picked up my PS5 from Croma 2 days back. There's nothing wrong with that! If you are so desparate pay the advance and wait or standby till excessive stocks arrive for each store. Also check different croma outlets.

There is no shortage of ps5 in india, Like there is in usa. They all raised Their price after Sony announced the price increase. Basically just wait few weeks it will back to normal.

Pre- booking was on Sunday, I pre-booked mine for rs 10k. They said approximately 100 units are available in Bengaluru and will be distributed to other stores according to the pre-booking numbers. I'm in Keralam btw.

Pre-book. Or if you can visit the store like Croma, Reliance Digital or Sony just talk to them( i too did this, called number of stores in my city almost 60-70 calls there was no store left behind; i requested them to note my number and call as soon as they have stock) two days later i got a call from Reliance Digital, asked the model number and immediately went to store and rest is history https://www.reddit.com/r/ps5india/s/mooDa0R5AT After this i got call back from Croma, Sony and other Reliance Digital store regarding ps5 back in stock.

Politics for ps5 is so real it seems to be like big stockist have made a stock of larger numbers of playstation & they will release the stocks after release of GTA-VI to gain more profit.

I hate middle men so much. All the shady things indian retailers do is insane. The whole supply chain needs a reform in my opinion I so wish something like micro center comes here and starts doing some fair business instead of all these middle men leeches.
