> if you want a PS so badly, why not get a used one or older new one on ebay or amazon: like maybe one of the previous versions PS4, PS3, PS2, PS1 or maybe another game system? it'll probably be whole lot cheaper too and you don't have to pay extra.
Well, for several reasons you may not have considered:
1) I need you to find me a listing for a "used" ps5 that isn't broken, double the retail price of a new system, or a flat out scam.
2) You seem to be laboring under the delusion that the only reason someone would upgrade to the ps5 is for the latest and greatest hardware or to simply have a Playstation console. Instead, you should consider that there exist people like myself who hope to upgrade because of games that are exclusive to the ps5.
