You dont need to explain anything you are free to sell with your own price. Who disagrees is free to disagree no need for personal attacks. There is no law that protects consumers for crazy prices since its a luxury/entertainment item.

Because you visited the store selling the cheapest and killed the opportunity of being able to buy a system for people who regardless of their economic status were hoping to get one just so you can kick up the price 2 to 3 times higher than what it's intended to be sold at and now there's people who won't be able to get their hands on a system for at least a month. And the worst part is you come here shit talking scalpers thinking we're just dumb. Hopefully no one is dumb enough to buy from you and you make 0 profits off the console.

You can do whatever you want with it (you chose the unethical method), it is yours, sell it for 1 million dollars if you want, nobody is hating but is it kind of funny for a certain point to be damning yourself at the end

You can keep scalping, for all I care. But don't act like a nice guy damn-ing scalpers, then you end up doing the exact same thing.

Hypocrisy at its finest "LMFAO".

100% agree, except there was no personal attack.
I don't think this forum has ever seen this level of drama.

Not a bad idea!
OK, so the summary is that Tech Guru insulted scalpers, but then was outed as a scalper through an OLX listing he made. Joke's on him.
Please put down the pitchforks and let's stick to the topic.
I mean objectively speaking, it makes sense for a scalper to hate other scalpers. The less there is to scalp, the less profit there is to make.
Bahahahahhaha that was epic. Good catch m0ei
Just picked up mine for 750$ from gadgitech. Cheers everyone
it’s sad I could not get one yesterday and it’s going for $1150 today
Those who recently bought the PS5, would be cool if you shared at least first impressions or review (you maybe brief) of the console.
Intial Impressions:

A leap ahead of PS4 /PS4 Pro.

1- PS4 Games are backward compatible , without a patch for the PS5. You will tip 60fps. I tried Days Gone , God of War , and Shadow of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice are all locked 60fps now. Very enjoyable , frame latency decreased from 33ms to 16ms.

2- I tried Call of Duty Cold War , the PS5 version. On 120fps mode and 60fps Raytracing mode. Both are reall awesome. The PS5 uses dynamic 4K with lower bounds not lower than 1440p to tip 120fps. Iam using the Sony 2020 X900h TV set with HDMI 2.1 inputs.

3 - Marvel Spider man Remastered and Spider Man Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales have a reshuffled lighting system which gives a true next gen look.

4 - Very fast from cold start to ingame , and very fast in loading. Every thing feels snappier now.

5- Dual Sense Controller is next gen. For example, in Call of Duty Cold War, each weapon has an intesity trigger level. This will give an unprecedented level of new immersivity dimension I have not witnessed before.

What I didn't like:

1- Nvme SSD storage is lucklaster. You have 660GB of usuable storage. All PS5 games must be installed on the PS5 internal SSD since they are optimized to take advantage of it ( loading ,texture streaming ..). Till now Sony didn't release two critical patches:

The ability to move PS5 games to an external HDD / SSD. To free up the internal SSD , the game must he deleted. Second, no support of Nvme PCI E gen 4 SSDs , at release. To be patched soon.

2- No VRR support out of the box. An firmware update is needed.

3- There some unclear steps on how to patch old PS4 , digital or disc , titles to PS5. How to move old saved data not to loss progress. Youtube is the best friend.


Initial Conclusion:

A console that feels next gen , with a solid unpolished experience hampered by missing out of the box features that need future updates. The PS5 hardware is impressive. It has a custom Zen 2 CPU , custom RDNA GPU , a unified pool of 16GB GDDR 6 Vram with a total bandwidth of 448Gb/sec ( for reference the 2080 super has a total memory bandwith of 496Gb/sec) , a very fast nvme gen 4 ssd with tthe flexibility to expand in the future.

Score: 9/10
My review: You can feel the grass it's not a lie :')

Joking aside. I really really hope the devs make good use of the haptic feedback. Astro's playroom was awesome to play. Unfortunately I could not get demon's souls because it's not available until tuesday so I'm hoping alfa's unlimited internet will be fast enough to download it.

Can you pay them in Fresh USD. I was checking them , their USD values are not adjusted to black market rate only LBP. They still dividing the LBP / 1500 making the USD values very high.

I've been told by a store that prices are super high right now because there is very limited stock everywhere, and some people are ready to pay anything. Two weeks from now, prices should go back to around $700.
