What to look for in gaming deals and discounts

As you’re browsing discounts, consider a few things to determine if you’re getting a great deal.

• Promotions and offers: Many of these deals are seasonal or only available for a limited time, so check to make sure there’s no expiration.
• Refurbished or last-gen: Sometimes brands will offer deep discounts on older models or refurbished products.
• Original price: Look for how much the product used to cost to see if it’s a steep enough discount to pounce on.
• Category: Consider whether what you’re browsing is an accessory, a monitor, or even a full PC. Different product categories typically have different discount structures.

When is the best time to get a good deal on gaming devices?

The prices on gaming devices and accessories fluctuate a lot throughout the year, but there are generally some good times to browse for steep discounts. Seasonal sales are quite common, so look out for good prices during national holidays (such as Labor Day in the United States) and the end-of-year holiday season. Additionally, many specific platforms host quarterly sales on games and products, so it’s good to check various alerts throughout the year. But, as with any product, the right time to buy is when you need or want that device. There’s no guarantee that something you want will go on sale, so browse now and get in the game.
