Hi guys,

I went everywhere yesterday trying to buy a PS3 and, as in the past three weeks, it seems to be sold out EVERYWHERE in Melbourne... I'd love to get the GTA4 bundle but at this point it's all about getting a bloody PS3...

Anyone perhaps have an idea where can I get one in Melbourne (bundle or not)?

Cheers

Get on the JB Hi-Fi website & ring all their stores within driving distance (or the distance your prepared to travel) , theres bound to be a store that has some. If that doesnt help then repeat same thing for Dick Smith or Harvey Norman etc....

Called all of them... JB, Disk Smiths... No one has a single PS3 available... Even worst, no PS3 coming to either both for at least a couple of weeks...

Any ideas?

Phone EB in Richmond, Victoria Gardens store. I think they have some. But make sure you instruct them to put it aside, as they are a very useless store at times.

Try Chadstone shopping centre; JB, EB, Myer, David Jones, K-Mart and Target!

Maybe there's an outage due to the incoming MGS4 bundle pack?!?

Sold out in EB Richmond, Big W in broady and all places in Chadstone... Apparently most places sold out a couple of weeks before and there aren't expecting new consoles in at least a couple of weeks.. You might me right, there must be a new bundle pack coming soon.. Dunno what to do...
