Speculators who resell the PlayStation 5 Pro are forced to put the console on sale at a lower price than the retail price. to this perceived Video Games Chronicle (VGC) publication.
Analysis of trading platforms showed that on British eBay the PS5 Pro can be purchased for below retail price (£510 to £670). At the same time, some sellers are still trying to make money by inflating price tags.
In Japan, sellers are also having difficulty selling PS5 Pro at a higher price. On the Mercari site, the console is offered at prices below the suggested retail price. Some sellers offer devices with a profit margin of $65-$130, but when we factor in commission and shipping costs, they either break even or break even.
The reason why speculators are losing money is that there are no problems with the console, as was the case with the release of the original version of PlayStation 5 in 2020. Resellers have switched to selling external drives for the console instead of the PS5 Pro. According to VGC, all major stores are out of stock of the drivers. On eBay in the UK the drives retail for £150-250, but retail for £100.
Similar problems are experienced in other countries. In Russia, sellers in large stores and marketplaces offer pre-orders for PS5 Pro at prices ranging from 90 to 130 thousand rubles. The console is sold for 800 dollars in the USA and 800 euros in Europe.
