Thu Sep 26 14:15:46 UTC 2024: ## PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Edition Sells Out in Minutes, Resellers Exploiting Demand
Sony’s highly anticipated PS5 Pro, along with limited edition 30th Anniversary versions of the console, DualSense controller, and PlayStation Portal, went on sale this morning. However, the coveted 30th Anniversary PS5 Pro bundle, limited to 12,300 units, sold out within minutes of its launch.
The limited edition bundles, a tribute to the original PlayStation’s December 3, 1994 release date, were exclusively available on direct.playstation.com. As expected, the limited availability fueled a frenzy, with the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Edition already appearing on eBay for as much as $5,000, a massive mark-up. This inflated price is only expected to rise, with eager buyers snapping up the console at an alarming rate.
The standard PS5 Pro and 30th Anniversary PS5 bundles are also available, but only through pre-orders at participating retailers like Amazon and Target. These pre-orders haven’t yet gone live, leaving many hopeful gamers frustrated by the limited supply.
While the initial excitement over the new PS5 Pro and its limited edition counterparts has quickly turned into a battle against scalpers, those lucky enough to snag a unit can enjoy the latest advancements in gaming technology.
