Sony’s PlayStation 5 both digital and disc versions are the hottest items this holiday season. Despite the latter retailing for $499, one man from Utah decided that the scalping bots that scour online stores were too much of a hassle to deal with. So, he decided to buy one off eBay for $878. A few days later the item arrives, but to his surprise, instead of a game console, there was a concrete brick inside the box instead.
He went straight to his local police department to file a report, and was told to contact eBay for reimbursement. Fortunately, he was covered under the eBay Money Back Guarantee and will be receiving a full refund without hassle. Whatever the case may be, we highly recommend recording the unboxing of such high value items to have concrete proof of the claims.

We condemn these opportunistic sellers who are attempting to mislead other users. We are in the process of removing all listings for photos of PS5s from our marketplace and will be taking appropriate action against the sellers.” said eBay.
