One of the only places you can get a PS5 pre-order is on eBay, but it's going to cost you. As you would expect, scalpers have flooded eBay with PS5 pre-orders, with most prices ranging from $700 to $1000. Whether it's the $400 all-digital edition or the $500 standard edition, scalpers are in some cases are looking to charge as much as double the normal price. In fact, someone is trying to sell one for $25,000.
Of course, no one is biting on the most absurd prices, but there are PlayStation fans biting on listings as expensive as $900. And this is insane. Not only is it insane to pay this much, but there will be more rounds of pre-orders before the console launches, so there's no reason to splash any extra cash right now. There will be plenty of opportunities to ensure you have a PS5 the day it launches.
The PlayStation 5 is set to release worldwide on November 12. At the moment of publishing, it's unclear how limited supplies will be, however, Sony has confirmed supplies will be greater than they were at the launch of the PS4.
