Xbox Series X restock: New ballot system introduced for eager gamers this month

Have you been desperate to get your hands on the new Xbox Series X since before Christmas? Well fear not as one online retailer will be offering a series of ballots to help you get your hands on one of the most covetable gaming devices.

As restocks have been rare over the past few months, the website Box is giving everyone a fair go at buying the games console with a ballot system. How good is that?

Customers are advised to sign up using their email address, and stock is then allocated at random. Lucky shoppers will then receive an email, explaining how to buy their Xbox Series X next-gen console. It’s that easy.

To register for Box’s next restock of Xbox’s Series X, which is happening this month - just enter your email address on their sign up page. You can find that and click through here.

It’s also worth noting that you’re automatically enrolled in Box’s marketing email lists, but you can obviously edit this once you’ve got your new console, safely at home and in your hands.

If you can’t be bothered with a ballot box system and have Glastonbury-esque PTSD over it, or looking for other places that will be restocking? We’ve listed the places you can try and get one from below. We’re hoping other retailers will have more devices coming soon.

Are you tempted to try Box’s ballot system? Let us know in the comments below.
