Here in Australia we put our names on a waiting list at one of the big name retailers, just by walking into the store. About a week later we got a call that there was stock.

So while the stock doesn't hang around, it seems like it is now at least possible to get one without too much fuss.

EB Games Australia have just announced that people on the pre-order list for PS5 won't receive their consoles until some time in 2022. You massively underestimate the high demand/low supply for this console.

Then I can only recommend walking into JB Hi-Fi in the Carousel shopping centre in Cannington and asking to go on their list.

Worked for us, we really weren't expecting it. We were even given a choice of which version of the console we wanted, at the point they got the delivery in.

(Maybe things have got worse in the last month? Maybe WA is special...)
