– The author is an editor who covers deals and gaming hardware and rejoined The Verge in May 2025 after working at Polygon.
– The Verge team has been preparing for Black Friday for months, noting that the event is starting earlier each year.
– Hundreds of deals have been revealed, including some that were previously undisclosed, with a one-stop shop available for all published deals.
– Instead of a one-way information stream, The Verge is hosting an AMA for subscribers to engage with the team.
– The AMA allows subscribers to ask for personalized deal picks or questions about the process and deals landscape, with answers starting at 1PM ET.

For anyone navigating the chaotic world of Black Friday sales, having a seasoned guide can make all the difference. This year, the traditional one-way stream of deal announcements is being replaced by something more interactive: a subscriber-exclusive Ask Me Anything session. The event is hosted by an editor who specializes in covering deals and gaming hardware, bringing years of experience from his time at The Verge and Polygon since 2018.

The preparation for Black Friday is a massive undertaking that begins months in advance, especially as the sales events now start earlier each year. Our team has already unveiled hundreds of offers, including many that were kept under wraps until now. We’ve also created a central hub where you can find every deal we’ve published.

Instead of just presenting you with a list, we want to open the floor to your questions. Are you looking for a personalized deal recommendation to cut through the clutter? I can provide tailored options. Maybe you’re curious about our editorial process for selecting deals or have broader questions about the shopping landscape this season. Consider these just a few conversation starters. Feel free to ask anything that’s on your mind. I will begin responding to all questions starting at 1 PM Eastern Time later today.
