Buying ps5 in small shop - where

[E020]

Hi,

in which shop could I buy a ps5 in Pattaya? Didn’t see the gameshops in tukcom, where are similar shops? Am not talking anout powerbuy etc.

[bob smith]

why not just buy one online?

Why not PowerBuy. In Central they had it for sale at 18,300.

Wouldn't the larger retailers have the better prices because they can buy in bulk?

With smaller retailers you are probably more at risk of ending up with a copy.

This is the exact same recommended price in Australia (A$799 = approx 18,300 baht). However PS5 now on sale for A$649 so 14,900 baht. Surely Thailand is cheaper than Aus so < 15,000 is somewhere?

Google finds 16380 from Power Buy.

That's the digital edition with no disc drive. The disc edition is more expensive. 18300 baht is 407 GBP. Price in the UK Amazon is 462 GBP. Thailand is always cheaper.

Tukcom mall Pattaya does have a small shop - "GameBoy" on the 4th floor, in the back corner, near the elevator. I brought a PS5 with Disc there yesterday ;) They had one left on display.

Powerbuy often does not actually have PS5's in-stock in Pattaya.

I prefer to support a small store like this, and deal with a human, and pick it up in person, despite getting most other stuff by Shopee.

The price online and in a small store was exactly the same.

They have some PS5 games, but limited. I did get those from Shopee.

 

GameBoy is on
