It's starting to get easier and easier to get PS5 consoles in the UK. They still sell out incredibly fast, but there aren't as many scalpers to fight with.
Now that we're in April it should start getting much easier as huge restocks are expected.
Check out all the updates and information for April 3rd.

Smyths Restock Early Next Week
Smyths is next in line to receive a stock update, although it should be a small one.
It was rumoured that the restock could happen yesterday but it didn't happen.
There is a chance that it could happen today but it will likely be early next week when the stock goes live.
GAME and Argos are also expecting stock between April 8th-14th, with GAME typically releasing theirs between 9-10am, while Argos releases between 1-4am.
Amazon is also said to be getting two shipments this month, so hopefully this will make getting a PS5 much easier.
CEX
CEX is a chain brand that sells used entertainment items from games, films, computer parts, mobile phones and more.
Because of this they don't have to follow pricing laws and can instead set their own laws.
They do sell both versions of the PS5, but be prepared to pay more than RRP for them.
At the time of writing the prices are:
- PS5 (Boxed) - £650
- PS5 Digital (Boxed) - £360
Ebay
Like CEX, if you're prepared to pay more than RRP and aren't that bothered whether the box has been opened before, then Ebay is one place to consider.
One thing to note is, since you may be dealing with individual sellers there may be a risk involved, so be prepared for that before you bid/purchase.
