A lot of people bought PlayStation 4 consoles for themselves last week . . . but some couldn’t help but buy one out of temptation to get a few extra dollars on eBay.
The online auction site has reported that over 10,000 consoles have been sold on the site over the weekend, between November 15th and 17th. They believe that “more than two PS4’s (were) sold on eBay every minute.”
“Sales of older generation consoles on eBay have also spiked, with 14,000 used consoles from previous generations sold on eBay since the launch of the PS4,” an eBay spokesperson explained. “That’s a 25 percent increase when compared to the 10 days preceding the launch as shoppers look to get some cash to put toward the purchase the new PS4 and upcoming Xbox One.”
Currently, there are still 13,000 systems being listed, so if you want one, feel free to shop around. Be prepared to spend $600 or more, though.
