ps4 anniversary edition

[CheezeWiZ]

Oh, the salt in this thread is thick... I understand though, it was very frustrating grabbing these consoles yesterday, so I would be pretty upset if I wasted all that time and didn't nab one.

I'm kind of wondering the same thing you are though. I'm not sure why people are so upset about the idea of seeing these as an investment/collector's item. They made 12,300 and numbered each one individually -- tis to be expected...no?

Unfortunately, I have no experience with the increasing value of these sort of limited consoles. But, if you find out anything on your own, please post back. I'd be interested to hear.

I think I'm just gonna hang on to mine for a while and see what happens.

You're more likely to get more for it selling now... when people get them in hand they'll be a lot more for sale and the price will go down significantly

You think so? Even though they're limited to 12,300 units?

12,300 ain't that limited... It's already started going down in price and the flood hasn't even hit yet

This forum is for collectors, not for resellers. I got mine order placed yesterday so I won't be jealous of anyone.

Selling stuff you don't want and selling stuff you just get for a profit is different.

Okay I'll shut up.

in a nutshell, there are "thousands" of these....i would suspect of the 12,300 units...at least 4,000 will be up on ebay..and a couple of years from now, when there's a console redesign..like a 2nd generation model, and it comes in some splashy color, again this console's price will take another hit...i think when the dust settles..this console will trade hands around the $1,000 mark for the first year or two..but then end up a couple of years down the road for around $700 or so...a few years ago, there was this internal company SEGA high quality figurine..it was EMPLOYEE/CONTEST only...each one was numbered and the total number was 1000 units worldwide..at first on ebay for the first 2 years, they were selling for around $1,200 a piece since it was ultra limited and not for sale, and this is just 1000 made compared to 12,300...3 months ago i picked up that SEGA figurine brand new sealed for $460 ..i expect same thing gonna happen here, once the hype dies down.

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

The advertising and hype is what will guarantee there will be 4,000 on the bay... just let the resellers know what to buy (what do you think non-collectors are going to do when they see how much it's selling for )

Compare it to the Automobile PS2s. 2000 of each colour (5 colours so total of 10000). They're not worth anything like what this is now. And that's a lower number split by 5.
