Forums - Sales - $1,399 for a USED PS5 Pro

For what it's worth, my stance is that if you buy something just to sell it for a higher price, that's scummy, but if you sell something you didn't buy just to profit later and happen to profit while doing so (or decide to sell because you realize it's so profitable), that's OK - exactly for the reason you said.

I agree with that 100%! Scalping is no good, but if we’re talking about a product you have owned for a while but are in need of some extra cash, then do with it as you please.

No matter what GameStop can not be allowed to get away with scalping. I find it odd that people aren't calling them out. Seems like the most anti consumer move ever.

I also feel that GS help destroy the physical game industry because while they do sometimes have sales, most often I find that I am able to get a better price on a digital store.

Case and point, I was looking into Octopath Traveler and they were selling it on sale for $29.99 on Switch/PS5... while the same week i got it on PSN for $9.99. I feel like retailers like GS bare some of the blame for the mass exodus from physical.

Yeah that's the thing, this isn't some broke individual struggling to makes ends meet by reselling their PS5 Pro, this is a big corporation taking advantage of a hardware shortage to price gouge its customers.
