PS5 Pro Bundles Are Already Up On eBay, And Scalpers Want To Sell Them For Thousands
Last week, Sony revealed a new line of PS5 and PS5 Pro consoles to celebrate the 30th anniversary of PlayStation. Featuring a PS1 color scheme and nostalgic small details, these are expected to sell very quickly due to them being limited-edition releases. That’s exactly what happened when preorders went live today in the UK, and predictably, several of these consoles are now listed on eBay at a very high price.
Several of the PS5 Pro console bundles currently for sale on ebay.
A quick glance at the site reveals that a handful of the PS5 Pro consoles–of which Sony is only producing 12,300–are being sold for up to $3,000 each. The original retail price in the UK was £959.99, and US pricing will officially be revealed later today. While the regular PS5 Pro costs $700, this anniversary bundle has a higher price tag due to it including a number of extras, like a disc drive cover, an extra DualSense Edge controller, PlayStation shapes cable ties, and more.
There is one single listing on eBay for the bundle priced at an astronomical $10,000, enough cash to buy 14 regular PS5 Pro consoles and still have change left over for a few games. It’s worth noting that what these sellers are asking for the PS5 Pro bundle and what they could eventually sell for are two different things entirely, as several of these listings include eBay’s “Best Price” feature that allows a potential buyer to haggle with a seller on the price.
