$1200 isn’t even a blip on the radar for some for their hobbies.

A lot of people just on this forum spends way more on other stuff

Lego. Over a 1000 sealed sets.

 

[BlitzerRadic]

Do you know how much money people spend on 20" rims for their car? Or how much they spend for those big off road tires for their pickups?

I'm pretty sure the amount I just spend in one year of maintenance costs for my cars is more than what most console players spend on their hobby for an entire generation lmao.

 

[Bodom78]

If you need 3 jobs you might want to reconfigure the types of jobs you're acquiring.

Sure, the poor plebs should just get better paying jobs... You have just single handedly solved economic inequality with this reply

 

[n0razi]

The ridiculous entry price for the sheep that want to pay exorbitant prices for console hardware?

Man! you wouldn't believe the prices that enthusiasts pay for some hobbies like basketball shoes, whisky/bourbon, fishing gear, guns/ammo, vinyl, and so on

In the last twenty years I've probably spent close to 20k on my home cinema gear, which is my main hobby. I'm not worried about £699.

 

[Imtjnotu]

Good thing nobody is buying the limited one to actually open and play it lol

Wait.... We're not?

 

[R6Rider]

No kidding......I don't even want to know how much I have invested in W40k.

I was actually thinking about buying the starter kit of figures.

 

[Moses85]

PS6 is going to be $1000, isn’t it?

People I've known who have car hobbies could probably have a real estate portfolio for the amount of money they spent on them.

 

[intheinbetween]

So 1200€ most likely

 

[ahtlas7]

Now with scalper pricing built in.

 

[dreamstation]

I got lucky I guess and managed to snag the Anniversary pro bundle from eb games here in Aus. Missed out on the extra controller and portal though

Level 5 swine! The grubs locked it to the highest tier (basically, the people who spend a fortune there already)

 

[Esppiral]

How much in Europe? 2000€?

 

[Cakeboxer]

How much in Europe? 2000€?

I expect 1.299 Euro

A bit of a ridiculous comment given you're posting on a gaming enthusiast forum mate.

Perhaps https://www.simplesavings.com.au/fora is more your tempo.

And JB had a lottery for their biggest whales as well. Zero chance of any of us who don't piss our cash away with either of them having a chance to get hold of one.

Is this the perks member lottery you're referring to? Because if that's the case, then it's a free sign up to be a perks member. And once signed up then you can participate in the lottery.

 

[Moses85]

1199 €

 

[kazuyamishima]

But worry not, OP, the 30th anniversary pro bundle sold out within seconds.

 

[ArtHands]

I wasn’t worrying though

[Kindjal]

I got on the queue, it was already sold out and it cost 1099.99€ in Spain.

 

[demigod]

I got on the queue, it was already sold out and it cost 1099.99€ in Spain.

So how does it work. You click on the 30th Pro and it places you in the queue. Can you then choose the regular Pro or do you have to be in 2 queues?

 

[Kindjal]

demigod

You get in the queue, then it redirects you to the Sony direct page. There you are able to see the products on sale. They have a banner for the 30th anniversary products. You click there and you go to another page with a list of products. It had the bundle, the dualsense, the edge, etc.
I clicked on the bundle and it said that it wasn't available anymore. They had a button with the image of the PS5 pro (it was still available when I got there, but didn't buy it) and if you clicked it a button to buy now appeared.
Then I just closed the tab and came here to post, lol.

 

[existensmaximum]

1000 USD is what the regular PS5 pro costs in Sweden. Without the disc drive, of course.

 

[Mithos]

Sweden...

PS5 Pro: 10500SEK / €926 / us$1030
PS5 Pro 30th: 14490SEK / €1279 / us$1425

Yeah but those cars might get you pussy, while a PS5 Pro can't.

...or, can it?

Sweet. I had an account anyway, so joined the perks program and entered the lottery.

 

[Starhowl]

€1099.99 in Germany and sold out already..

 

[SmokedMeat]

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

So much for this...already sold out in Portugal lmao. (the 30th edition)

 

[PeteBull]

Looks like finally being lowkey oil sheikh makes u top tier playstation p(L)ayer

 

[skyfinch]

By the time I can afford the normal PS5 Pro, it will be retro.

 

[navii]

Don't judge me but I pre-ordered one of these. So weak.

https://www.ebgames.com.au/product/ps5/313490-sony-dualsense-edge-wireless-controller-30th-anniversary-limited-edition

The EB AU site was a shitshow this morning with the pre-ordering frenzy going on.

No judging, just thanking you for the high interest rates, mate.

 

[Lord Panda]

No judging, just thanking you for the high interest rates, mate.

Don't worry sir, interest rate cut likely in December.

 

[ArtHands]

 

[adamsapple]

Linearly, ~$1700 Australian dollar comes out to ~$1160 USD.

But Sony usually subsidize the price in the US a bit more compared to the rest of the world, so I'm gonna guess it's an even $999.99 before tax.

Nostradamus up in this bitch, right here.

 

[MikeM]

Canada is up and running. Costco, Staples are all active. Best Buy and others are waiting until 10am eastern

 

[ArtHands]

Will be great if this becomes a huge success
