To be annoyed about Sony and the Playstation 5

I know its a first world problem but I've been trying to buy one for the family since it came out. That's a year now. Stock drops today at amazon and game. Missed out on both despite being in a virtual queue for an hour. I've come close so many times but always missed out.

Look on ebay and there are literally thousands listed. People boasting at having sold over 85 consoles - so how much of that profit did they pay tax on then? I just want to buy one for my family and not pay a scalper for the privilege. Feel like giving up to be honest.

Sony have managed this so badly. And it's their loss as that's already a years worth of their games we haven't bought. We did try one but it won't work properly on the PS4 so no point.

I know there are bigger issues and we are lucky to be able to afford one at all - at what would bit its normal price - but this has really annoyed me this morning. Rant over.

She also got a PS4 from her dad the actual
Christmas and prefers that, as she has it first

Just came back to say the one I bought on 10 November from Very turned up yesterday, so just over 2 weeks from start to finish! It's for someone else, so I haven't opened, however the boxes look legitimate.
