Finding a place to buy the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S continues to be an annoying task Not only is it difficult to find retailers that have them in stock, but the restocking of the Xbox Series X in the US seems to be a bit slow this month

Microsoft's new console is flying off the shelves, and for good reason: reviews of the Xbox Series X praised its underwhelming performance, nimble load times, and comprehensive backward compatibility with all generations of Xbox And, as we noted in our review of the Xbox Series S, for those with 1080p TVs, the less expensive next-generation Xbox can offer many of the same excellent features
So check out the latest Xbox Series X stock update and our tips for getting the new Microsoft console below
We have yet to find a retailer that has the Xbox Series X console in stock But that doesn't mean it's not worth clearing out the retailers below, in case you get lucky
If you are able to get an Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S, many of the console's accessories are in stock, including the Xbox Series X's expensive 1TB Seagate storage expansion drive and the new Xbox Wireless controllers are also included
Below you will find links to each store page, so please sign up and we will keep you up to date on the latest Xbox Series X news
In addition to updating each retailer's website, there is an online channel where you can check when the product will be available
On Twitter, we recommend following @Wario64 This handle is known for updating the latest deals and restocking information before anyone else on this platform
Shopping Forums
Slickdeals, an online deal repository, has a forum thread dedicated to ordering the Xbox Series X through Microsoft The thread is constantly being updated, so jump to the last page and click on updates to get the latest information on when the units will be available
PopFindr
PopFindr is a site that checks the inventory of local retailers based on zip code For example, you can check to see if your local Target store has the Xbox Series X in stock Note, however, that even if the item is listed as being in stock, it may be out of stock by the time you arrive at the store
It's also not a bad idea to create an account on Slickdeals and set up an alert for "Xbox Series X" You will receive an alert email whenever a new thread about inventory replenishment is started However, we have found that sometimes Slickdeals does not email users fast enough So it might be better to type "Xbox Series X" into the search bar and sort by new arrivals; we recommend checking multiple times a day, and if you're not sure how many new items you're looking for, you can always check back later in the day to see if there are any new items in stock
CheapAssGamer is a long-running gaming information site that also has a forum thread dedicated to the Xbox Series X
Facebook and Reddit
Facebook is also a good source of information; there are several Xbox Series X fan groups that provide information on the latest restocks Feel free to join some of these groups
Also, be sure to subscribe to the Xbox Series X subreddit Of course, the majority of the page is devoted to discussions and memes, but if users notice restocks, they let the community know For example, one user found an Xbox Series X in stock at a local Walmart, and others are discussing similar finds After all, some Walmarts are stocking up to sell on Cyber Monday
Wholesalers
Another retailer to watch is subscription wholesalers like Costco, Sam's Club, and BJ's Wholesale Club Because a paid account is required to gain access to these wholesalers, few people often jump on each other to find units If you are not a subscriber to any of these retailers, ask a friend or family member
Unfortunately, wholesalers tend to bundle additional games and accessories with new consoles Therefore, you will likely have to pay more than the standard $500
Check at critical times
In general, retailers like to have inventory available at specific times The most likely time to stock the new Xbox Series X is at midnight EST on a particular day Check all retailers and you may be in luck
Some other retailers prefer 7:00 am ET, for example, when customers wake up, while others aim for noon to give everyone the best chance of finding a new Xbox Series X console
If it's not in stock online, it may be worth going to a physical store Bring your membership card or go with someone who has a membership Also, be sure to wear a face mask (over the nose) If not in the store, you can buy a rotisserie chicken for at least $500 to go
One of the reasons for the Xbox Series X and Series S stock shortages is that duffers are buying up next-generation game consoles in large quantities and selling them at exorbitant prices
VGC reported that a notorious PS5 duffer group called CrepChiefNotify bought up 1,000 Xbox Series X units as soon as they went on sale at UK retailer Very There are several words to describe these people, but they are not suitable for publication
In a twist of fate, however, Very cancelled the pre-order of 1,000 Xbox Series X units, somewhat spoiling the efforts of the duffers
While searching for an Xbox Seires X or Series S can be frustrating, we recommend avoiding purchasing a console from these duffers, as we believe that paying a large sum of money for a console that does not have a large amount of new Xbox Seires X games is not a wise move In our opinion, if it holds up through 2021, Microsoft should ship more Xbox Seires X, which promises more exclusive games for the console
