You are going to pay atleast $1000 on the resell Market. Ebay has them going for $1200+. There is more XBX supply, that is why the are going for $850-$1000. Or you can buy expensive Bundles GameStop or Walmart are offering. I haven't seen the same PS5 bundles.
My winning bid was 1075 for the digital version. Ended up bieng around 1200 with delivery and other fees.
The happiness and joy your kids are going to express to you is worth more than 1200$ Plus if you think about it the PS5 will last years and you would have blew that money on food, consumables, etc anyway.
I'm sorry, the kids don't need at $1200 console to be "Happy!". They could wait til next year.....lol. He could have gotten Multiple Switches at that price.
Daddy, daddy, we wanted the DISC VERSION! Lulz, jk, jk! My PS4 has been a workhorse for like 10 years now, right? Worth it.
It not that you paid $1200....your choice. The point is everyone are dealing scalpers and bots....and they cannot get one for THEIR kids. $1200 is too expensive for many out there. They can budget $500 or use MS ALL-ACCESS for $24.99 or $34.99 a month.
LOL, apparently you're a sucker DGN according to Scarface. He's just bitter that you're successful and have the means to get what your kids want. Don't let him bring you down. I'm sure with any present your kids going to very much appreciate it, but especially this one! He has an issue with buyers and sellers alike that doesn't conform to his "standards".
No, I have problem paying scalpers an $800 premium on a $400 console (digital version). It encourages them to keep doing it.
