Updating: The process for restocking the PS5 has begun at the Sony Direct Store as the website randomly picks people to buy the console. Here are two copies in stock. So far, our waiting time is listed as “more than an hour”.
A new PS5 addition is taking place in the US today on the Sony Direct website, and this comes with the usual disclaimer: this hard-to-buy console will be up and running quickly.
Only wait 22 minutes for the PS5 to refill in Sony Direct. Has the stock improved? Or have I been lucky after many tries? pic.twitter.com/L581wEyniAFebruary 10, 2021

Sony is issuing three warnings with restocking the PS5. First, you need an active PSN account to complete the purchase. Second, you have 10 minutes to buy a PS5. Third, “PS5 consoles are available now, but they are not waterproof even when you are on hold,” said Sony.
This is your second chance Buy a PS5 This week after GameStop quickly sold out of its PlayStation 5 stock in minutes. Those were packages.
Sony Direct PS5 restocking has been quiet for most of February, but the good news is that the website forms a virtual queue and your request is randomly identified.
This means your chances of getting a PS5 won’t be slowed down by page loading and your bandwidth speeds. This has been a major problem when ordering the PS5 from stores such as Walmart and Best Buy, which are constantly crashing after the spikes in demand for PS5.
