Normally 12300 isn't that limited, but it is considering the MASSIVE advertising this thing got. Every single gaming site everywhere was reporting on it, hype was at insane levels. Judging by twitter, comments on articles and youtube, etc. there are tons of non-collectors who bought these and lots of people using it as an excuse to buy a PS4. Therefore I hypothesize that if you hold on to an unopened/sealed version it will go up in value as time goes on. Also 4000 on ebay? unless there are TONS of people who bought more than 1, I highly doubt that.
I don't normally post gifs, but this sure comes to mind in this thread
