Without knowing what sort of access to bibliographical resources Mr. 
Rodriguez has it's hard to say if they count as "readily available," but 
the most recent edition is in the Sources Chre/tiennes series:

There's also Preuschen's 1903 edition in the GCS, besides the PG reprint 
  of de la Rue's 18th c. edition (Origen's works are in PG volumes 
11-17; I don't know which volume contains his GJohn). All of those 
should be in any decent theological library, and the PG in any research 
library.

In passing, I'll also mention that the PG is available in a variety of 
electronic forms for a variety of prices from Reltech.org:

Jeffrey Gibson suggested something I should have thought of but didn't:

<<I believe its in the TLG. But as this is not online without a
subscription, it may not be >>

Only the first three of the five volumes of the SC edition, apparently, 
and fragments from the GCS:
