This weekend’s PlayStation Experience event not only provided an ample opportunity for Sony to show off its exclusive wares, but it also gave devotees the opportunity to own a piece of history with a special 20th anniversary edition of the PlayStation 4 console, using the same coloring as the original PlayStation that launched in Japan back in 1994.

However, with limited numbers available, the 13,200 systems managed to sell out quickly, with many taking their system to eBay for purchasing. It’s ended up being a move that worked in their favor, as the first auctions have managed to conclude between anywhere from $15,000 to $20,000 {link no longer active} according to Ars Technica.

At the moment, 300 of the systems are currently listed on the auction site, even though users don’t physically have them in their hands as of yet (although they do have completed pre-orders indicating a shipment at the end of the month).  These people ended up being quite lucky, as many couldn’t even complete their orders through the Sony Store, where the system was being exclusively sold.

This is just the latest move with a limited edition being sold for higher value on the eBay site. Several systems released in the past have fetched top dollar following their limited edition release, including a Star Wars Xbox 360 Kinect bundle and a Pokemon-oriented Nintendo 64 console, which still fetches a high price all these years later.

For those who want a PlayStation 4 for a far lower price – and don’t mind being without the anniversary theme – Sony does have a good consolation prize. Following its selling out of Black Friday bundles, the company has launched a new deal with its PlayStation 4 console, where users can download one of four games free of charge with purchase, choosing from Destiny, NBA 2K15, Far Cry 4 and LittleBigPlanet 3.

The move is the latest by Sony to remain competitive during the holiday season, especially with Microsoft’s Xbox One bundles still selling significantly well since their announcement a couple of months ago. There’s no question that Sony’s Black Friday bundles were the better deal, but users can still get a free game out of the deal.

And not have to pay twenty grand for it, at that.
