Early Black Friday Deals: Pokemon Sword/Shield For $50 Each, Switch Lite Pokemon Bundle For $240, And More

It's time to start hunting for Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals, as a number of retailers and online stores have already announced their plans for Black Friday 2019, if not offering pre-Black Friday deals outright. Ebay's got its share of deals, and even kicked off its deals at the start of the month.

Ebay's Black Friday plans include a series of Black Friday "drops" every Friday at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET, from now through December 13. These include "a limited quantity of trending items," such as the Nintendo Switch and Bose headphones. The retailer will also be offering major deals on its Brand Outlet page, which features items from major brands like Apple, Microsoft, Samsung, and Nintendo.

Today's Black Friday drop is particularly good for Pokemon and Nintendo fans. Both Pokemon Sword and Shield are each available for $50 ($10 off), and there's also a Nintendo Switch Lite (turquoise) bundle with Pokemon Sword or Pokemon Shield for $240. The Switch Lite normally sells for $200, and we don't expect any discounts on it for Black Friday, so if you're interested in both the console and the game, this is an excellent deal to jump on. It's worth noting you can get the Pokemon games for $49.94 at Walmart stores, but we haven't seen any other discounts like this online.

Black Friday deals at Ebay come with free shipping and the store's best price guarantee, which means you'll receive 110% of the price difference on eligible deals and top products if you find the same item for less on a competitor's website. The best price guarantee is available at Ebay year-round, but it's sure to be particularly handy during Black Friday.

We'll keep this article updated as more gaming, tech, and entertainment deals go live, but for now, check out an overview of the best deals available now below.
