It was expected that the PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection would attract the attention of scalpers, but a recent listing has been truly shocking. One eBay user is offering to “attempt to buy” a limited-edition PS5 Pro for an eye-watering $10,000 (technically $9,999). However, as of now, the listing has been removed by the seller, potentially due to backlash or eBay’s policies on early sales.

The PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Edition isn’t even available for official pre-order yet, yet this user had already posted the listing with a staggering $9,999 price tag. This move appeared over the top, especially since Sony hasn’t confirmed the actual retail price yet. The seller’s description began with the phrase, “Attempt to buy for you,” indicating that they weren’t even guaranteed to secure one of these exclusive consoles due to limited availability.

Sony will produce only 12,300 units of the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Edition, which includes a 2TB SSD, Wi-Fi 7, and several limited-edition accessories like the DualSense wireless controller and DualSense Edge controller. Scalpers are likely to take advantage of the limited supply, just as they did with the PS5 launch in 2020.

Don't forget the PS Paperclip. Talk about burying the lead.

They could just release cover plates and avoid this nonsense. Scalpers will be all over these don't kid yourself and I guess if you wanna sell a few limited numbered consoles whatever but they really should make cover plates available as well for everyone to enjoy.

Just look for aftermarket plates

 

[ReBurn]

I doubt the seller removed it. eBay usually shuts down auctions like that because they violate listing policies.

What about the body of the console? It will be weird with it looking black.
