Scalpers are taking things to a new level. Usually, limited edition items like the upcoming 30th Anniversary PS5 Pro bundle will command a premium purely due to their scarcity – but some plucky swindlers are taking to auction sites to sell their services attempting to buy one of the 12,300 units for you. They want $10,000 for the privilege.

Just to clarify here, you're not guaranteed a console at the end of it all: the rip-off merchants will merely attempt to get one for you.



To be fair, while this auction has been shared widely on social media, we weren't actually able to find it, so there's a good chance it's been removed. We'd also be surprised if anyone actually dished out five figures for something like this.

Still, it's pretty obvious these bundles will be being flogged for huge fees later this week, especially once legitimate pre-orders have been lodged. We don't know how much the package will cost on PlayStation Direct, but we're expecting $1,000, so we wouldn't be surprised if scalpers looked to sell these on at up to $10,000 once they inevitable sell out.

This weekend, a couple of prices did leak for the 30th Anniversary PS5 Digital Edition and 30th Anniversary DualSense. While you'll be paying a $50 premium for the console, it looks like the controller will be priced the same as the pad's various other color variants, which seems totally fair to us. As a reminder, pre-orders will open on 26th September.
