When checking the PlayStation store for stock I was thrown into a queue for a chance to purchase the PlayStation 5. Once you click the link you will be automatically enter into the queue. Good luck! Starwars

https://direct-queue.playstation....&cid=en-US

Message from PlayStation:
WHEN YOU REACH THE FRONT OF THE QUEUE:
You will hear a chime. Make sure to unmute your device.
You will be automatically redirected to direct.playstation.com.
If you are on a different tab, a pop-up will prompt you click to enter the site. You will have 10 minutes to proceed.
Once you click enter site, you will be redirected to the page you originally navigated to, from there you can begin your shopping journey.
IMPORTANT INFO:
Refreshing the page or having multiple queue tabs open will not affect your place in line. This page refreshes automatically.

More than an hour. It's a daily event at random time. You never get one. But still try your luck.

understand that queue is to just enter the website NOT to purchase the PS5. So by the time you enter the store 1000 people are already checking out.

Right, I was giving it a minute buffer but 4:02 might not be good enough either.

I don't see how a game console that will be essentially a ps4 upscaler for the next several months is worth 1 hour sitting in front of a virtual queue. Not like these things will be in short supply when the real games are coming out.
