GameStop selling PS5 Pro at $500 above list price

Original: GameStop is hoping PS5 Pro buyers are desperate enough to pay $500 over MSRP A shortage has driven resale prices through

GameStop is offering the PlayStation 5 Pro at roughly $500 over its manufacturer's suggested retail price, taking advantage of a shortage that has pushed resale prices sharply higher. The move has drawn criticism from gamers who see it as scalping by an official retailer, while others say it reflects simple supply and demand for a console that remains hard to find.

Why now: A shortage of the PS5 Pro has created big markups, and an official retailer charging scalper-level prices is controversial.
