Did they make sure it will be resold at that price or change anything from the previous batch?

A friend got in touch with Fattal and SonyMEA, and confirms this. Issue has been handled and first batch to come by next week. Basically the original shipment is back in order.

Re: PlayStation 5 Officially Announced

Update:

They Lunched patch 1.04 of CyberPunck 2077. It improved a lot on the PS5 , now 60fps. Awesome

https://youtu.be/yrlE2v1sVkA

To experience full Next Gen experience ,CD Projekt Red will lunch a full 2021 patch including real time rendering. Meanwhile , with each patch they are stacking up the performance and visual fidelity on next gen consoles. It is still running on backward compatibility mode.

60fps with terrible LOD, constant popups, crashes take longer to happen with the latest update tho, I switched to PC, better graphics but still CTDs every 2 hours exactly.
I think people are erasing the fine line between usual launch bugs and functionality as an effort to keep the hype up and probably corporate bootlicking ;) /s
Switching Windows priority to background task eliminates occasional stutters and popups, but it reduces lower minimum fps a tiny bit.
Future updates will probably be downgrades, same path MSFS is taking...

Let someone enjoy a PS5 ya Ihab.

We know you're rich, and we know that you got fresh USD, and we know that you have connections; we also acknowledge that it is your right to get as many PS5s as possible and make a profit out of it as a business, even be an outright scalper.

However, just think of how many families, how many kids or adults, are just dying to get their hands on a PS5, especially now around Christmas. Just imagine that you're a father of one of these boys and you can barely, barely pay the required 700$ for it just to make your son happy. What would you think of the people who snatch these PS5s as soon as they are available to deplete the stock and then resell them at double the price?! Really. I'm totally sincere here. Just make a pause and think about it.

Good luck with your attempt to reach his conscious, personally - and sadly - I think it will fail just like previous attempts, and you will get some lame argument

Re: PlayStation 5 Officially Announced

So when is the new batch of PS5s reaching Leb? Wasn’t it supposed to be today

Re: PlayStation 5 Officially Announced

Just contacted 2 stores and they both confirmed that the PS5s will arrive to Fattal and will be distributed today or tomorrow. The price will be in the 1000$ (Official price not scalping) range; because a PSN card is included and something about the customs taking tax in USD. What a fucking joke of a country

They are taking people for fools by justifying the price increase on customs taking USD which is 100% not true LMAO

Re: PlayStation 5 Officially Announced

I suspect this spike in prices is due to Christmas. A lot of stores, such as Mojitech, Phonefinity, Shadi Najjar, have it in stock and are selling it at $1050. Kouyoumji told me that I'll have to wait till January and that the price has jumped by 100 dollars (at 766 USD + 110,000 LBP). I hate this country.

Re: PlayStation 5 Officially Announced

Why is no one talking about low supply? Is it really scalping at such low stock numbers?

regardless, if you’re buying more than one for the purpose of selling them back for profit then you’re a piece of shit

First 2-3 days during launch indeed, that is scalping. But this is considered a rare item released beyond a month so far, made for collectors due to low stock, "a gem" :-). Sony did it all. RTX3080 was very short on stock as well.

Re: PlayStation 5 Officially Announced

Supply issues are global, and we all know why.

Just curb your thirst to buy the console, i am pretty sure we are not 10 year olds here. Ignore the scalpers and postpone buying the console for now. Plus waiting to buy the console has its benefits including, more exclusives, firmware updates to iron out issues and in certain cases hardware revisions that tweak the hardware to decrease general failure.

As long as you keep the demand, the prices will take a lot of time to go down and scalpers will keep taking advantage of the low supply situation.
