Another Round Of JB Hi-Fi PlayStation 30th Ballot Emails Have Gone Out

UPDATE (24/10): Another round of emails have gone out for JB Hi-Fi’s PlayStation. 30th anniversary ballot. We’ve heard of at least two people: one for a DualSense Edgeand  one for a regular DualSense, but there’s bound to be more.

The email reads “Great news! If you’re still interested in pre-ordering a DualSense 30th Anniversary controller, we have one available for you”.

UPDATE (16/10): Even more succesful ballot emails have gone out for JB Hi-Fi’s PlayStation 30th anniversary ballot.

In a sighted email, JB contacted more winners today with the message “We’ve been able to allocate more ballot winners and you’ve been selected to pre-order”.

Those that were contacted today will receive an SMS on Thursday October 17th at their nominated phone number attached to their JB Hi-Fi account and will then need to check out by 11:59pm AEDT.

UPDATE (11/10): Second chance emails have gone out for JB Hi-Fi’s PlayStation 30th Anniversary ballot after people presumably opted to not purchase their original offers.

The emails states: “As part of our second-chance draw, you’ve have been selected to pre-order as part of our Perks exclusive PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection pre-order ballot.”

ORIGINAL STORY: It’s finally happened. Emails for the JB HI-Fi PlayStation 30th anniversary ballot have gone out to people this morning.

At the time of writing, we’ve had people tell us that they got selected for the DualSense controller, PlayStation Portal, PS5 Pro and PS5 Slim, but it’s safe to assume that all five products have been accounted for at this point with a lot of people getting emailed this morning.

As expected, it seems as though people are only getting selected for one item, even if they chose all 5, so it’s not clear how this is being chosen. As JB Hi-Fi said, they are then able to pick a date in which they will receive an SMS at their registered number to purchase their item on that selected day.

We’ll keep you posted if any more units come available if people don’t go through with their winning ballot entry or any other retailer magically gets stock.
