PS5 & XSX Pickup: The Struggle Continues |OT|

- Start date
- Sony Microsoft OT
Lol seriously, it's frustrating. I can't stand these people.
$1200 listings aren't selling. I have a ton of $900 listings in my area that aren't even moving and I've noticed people started dropping into the high 800s now
You will find nothing but pain and disappointment. At this time of day, if there even was units they would've sold by then.

This guy in New York messaged me back (some guy that went to my High School) that he was actually selling them for $1,200. I find it to be bullshit but then again, I wouldn't be surprised.
For some locations between 1 and 3 is when they get the systems in and start selling them, I got mine at like 3pm local time.
He's probably not selling any at that price, especially with more and more stock going out. Average price in my area is now $850-$900. Probably just hoping he finds a sucker, but prices will only keep going down.
At least it's more clever than something like thisHelping a family member try to get a PS5
It's gotta be getting a little late for the reselling game too, no? It's not necessarily that stock is increasing, but demand is decreasing.
Most are just trying to get this for the holidays. After that, demand is going to fall off a bit, I'd think.
And with two weeks to go, if you're still collecting stock to sell, you've gotta be in a bit of trouble.

If anything, I'd only expect it to get worse until just a few days until Xmas. Lots of people are hoping they can get one for MSRP before giving up to scalpers in the last second once they fail.
$1000 is how much the DE and PE are selling on Ebay but $850 locally is still a good chunk of profit.
Price has gone up since launch on Ebay and is climbing as we get closer to Christmas. First time I have seen this happen, usually the highest price is launch week.

yeah, its true.
but theres gotta be consideration towards being able to receive and reship something in time for christmas. that can't run up to christmas day unless youre reselling exclusively to your own area. and its a shot in the dark to think theres enough people to sell to in your area. i dont know.
People will be willing to pay for overnight shipping to get it.
I thought Mexico MSRP was crazy (about $700 USD for the disc PS5) but people paying $1k+ to scalpers is just insane. Also makes me wonder if scalpers are buying up systems here to sell in the US (so far, Series S is the only thing I've seen in stores).
needs more ductape.At least it's more clever than something like this
Of course, but that week of Christmas desperation is going to kick in and I would not be surprised seeing PS5s go for $1200 online.
Like I said, demand will shoot up until Xmas. If I were in the business, I would only stop trying to get stock like 2 or 3 days before, because by then it's not shipping before the holiday.
What's $50 shipping to get $300 profit?
Buying from EBay means the customer pays for shipping on top of the system as well.
hm. yeah. actually, i guess theres no point in stopping until youre selling for roughly break-even...
For what it's worth, I was at Target this morning and asked them when they'll be getting more ps5's. They said they won't be selling any until 2021. Who knows if that's true or not but that's what they told me.
Supply has been pathetic so that might be true. Or they might be lying just so people stop bothering them about the PS5.
They're usually* every weekday.
I think most drops have been around 3pm PST?
TheSiteSupply is pretty good.
Especially now that Wario64 has become very spam-heavy.
