PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle sold out in minutes, with pre-orders available online for up to £10,000

Posted on by darion

Sony recently released the PlayStation 5 Pro, a limited 30th anniversary edition, and stock sold out in seconds. Scalpers have already placed it on various e-commerce channels, after which prices have increased. Pre-orders for the PlayStation 5 Pro 30th Anniversary Limited Edition began yesterday in the UK and across the Eurozone. This special version of the PS5 Pro console is individually numbered and a collector’s item, with only 12,300 of these consoles available in markets.

Shoppers were quick to come across a sell-out notice for the PS5 Pro console – a limited edition to celebrate the console’s 30th anniversary – just minutes after pre-orders opened on PlayStation Direct in the UK. This left many people feeling frustrated, especially those who had previously waited patiently in line.

You can still find package deals on platforms such as eBay, although scalpers are asking prices of up to £10,000.

Scalpers selling the PS5 Pro – 30th Anniversary Limited Edition console on eBay don’t actually have the consoles in hand yet. Instead, they try to profit from successful pre-orders. Still, there are already plenty of offers from sellers looking to cash in on the limited availability of the bundle. In fact, the situation has become so bad that some eBay users have posted counter ads to warn potential buyers against buying pre-orders from scalpers.

Even the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition – 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle, which was not as strictly limited as the PS5 Pro version, was sold out, triggering a wave of scalping on various online platforms.
