GameStop据称将二手PS5 Pro标价最高1500美元 称“刻意高于新机”
'This Is Intentional': GameStop to Start Scalping Used PS5 Pros for $1,500
Push Square引Reddit爆料称GameStop将从10月16日起对二手PS5 Pro提价，数字版最高1399.99美元、光驱版1499.99美元，官网已显示变动。零售商在留言中说二手主机定价高于新机是刻意为之，背景是PS5 Pro供给少、GTA 6发售前需求升以及特定固件破解引发的抢购。
Almost double the price of a new unit

A brand new PS5 Pro will already cost you an arm and a leg in the United States at $900, but a used one may now set you back almost double, with GameStop announcing unprecedented price increases for pre-owned consoles.
According to a verified Reddit post, the retailer will begin charging up to $1,500 for used units of Sony’s supercharged system; the original correspondence mentions 16th October as the date for the hike, but its official website already reflects the change today.
Under the new price guidelines, a digital-only unit will sell for up to $1,399.99, while one with a disc drive attached will fetch up to $1,499.99.

In a leaked message, the US retailer said: “The pre-owned console will have a higher price than the new console – this is intentional.”
Supply of the PS5 Pro is light, and demand is increasing ahead of the release of GTA 6.
In Japan, the platform holder has introduced a lottery system, where only those with 60 hours of PS5 playtime will be eligible to purchase the device.
A recent spate of jailbreaks have also led to a run on PS5 hardware running on a specific firmware. That may also be contributing to the increase here.
Still, it’s wild to see GameStop – a legit high street retailer, regardless of your relationship with it – effectively scalping PlayStation hardware now.
I think it goes without saying, no matter how much you want a PS5 Pro, do not pay these prices. This is just absurd.
