PlayStation 5 in the first Polish store. The high price is shocking, but it is rather taken from the ceiling
The offer to sell PlayStation 5 appeared in the first Polish store. An order for a console at a price of PLN 4050 can be placed by visiting the relatively popular ProShop website.
Exactly PLN 4,048 (net PLN 3,291) - this is the ProShop store priced enough on the PlayStation 5 console. Initially, I thought the site administrators wanted to joke about April Fool's Day. However, the offer appeared on April 2 and is still available on the website . Of course, ProShop is not the first store to accept pre-release offers on PS5. However, previously this type of opportunity was mainly served by foreign websites.
What store is ProShop and who does it belong to?
ProShop is not an empty shell without a reliable history of operations. This site's offers have been aggregated by Ceneo since 2018. Out of 1,100 store reviews, 90 percent is positive. In my consciousness ProShop appeared during the last Black Friday. You could then buy graphics cards and processors at quite good prices from them. I think we even linked to them on the Spider's Web sale live blog.
Targeted at Polish customers, ProShop is not fully Polish business. Although it has a tax identification number, the store conducts shipping and service from Denmark. The company's official address is Michael Drewsens 22 in Hoejbjerg. Which, of course, does not make the company illegal or suspicious. Quite the opposite: a brief analysis of ratings, recommendations and comments shows that we are dealing with a relatively solid sales platform.
However, this does not make the price of PlayStation 5 reliable.
In my reflections on Spider's Web, I have repeatedly assumed that PS5 would be more expensive than PS4 . The higher price of the new model will primarily be affected by a super-fast SSD top-class 825 GB, a slightly better cooling system and a new version of the controller supported by advanced haptic motors (and maybe also additional sensors and sensors). However, even considering all these elements, the price at PLN 4050 still seems a bit too high.
In the recent past, Sony has painfully found out how destructive the price bar hanging at too high a level can work. The high rate for PlayStation 3 during the premiere meant that the dark specter of the great crisis began to circulate over the company. I am convinced that SCE does not want to repeat that scenario. Therefore, I assume that price ranges in the range of 2500 - 3500 PLN are more likely.
However, this is fortune-telling.
The official presentation of the PlayStation 5 console and the start games catalog is yet to come. Until Sony gives the European price for the upcoming gaming platform, all offers appearing in stores should be treated as speculation and temporary product tabs. It is true that store chains have earlier access to confidential data from game distributors and consoles, but in this case I recommend maintaining far-reaching restraint. Four thousand from the box are real, but unlikely.
