If it gets reported to Sony as stolen it will get blacklisted and won’t work online. Return it.

eBay is a funny place, I once got a negative review (and partial refund request) because I used too much packaging, it was a 7 pound film camera that buddy just paid $1000 for lmfao
@jakeftv5088
Bro he obviously stole that shit
@steveaustin330
A guy once told me when he worked at Walmart, he would take the new consoles out back, slide it under the steps, than after work take it home and sell it.
@bjsummerfield
Just return it so you don’t have to worry about it getting banned for being stolen
@GavinColbourne
Never accept the first offer. I have had many dealings when selling phones to small businesses and they will always low-ball you, so I always go in with a high-ball amount and then meet somewhere around 60/40 or 70/30 in my favor
@MikeStavola
I know a dude who used to steal consoles and games from gamestop's freight trucks, and then resell them on ebay. Dude had lots of problems and acted similar to this guy, in person.
@mrwolf15G
Probably works for the retailer and used a 100% discount. The risk of being caught as a stolen console is dependant on how fastidious a store scans serial numbers into their stock database. If the store has no idea what serial numbers it was selling, it can't report a specific console to Sony. It's also possible that Sony accidentally shipped early. AND shipped a box of 2. But- doubt that. I recall the original shipping box of PS5s at launch is 3 PS5s to 1 box. I have more than a few instances of buying 1 item and receiving the wholesale box amount- so getting a box of 6.

Having worked in retail for over 30+ years, my opinion is that, they most likely work for Walmart or even Game Stop and knew when the shipments were to arrive. The cases will be marked with, "DO NOT PUT OUT BEFORE, etc.". I'm going to guess, they were going to quit anyways. So they were able to get them out of the store without anyone noticing. Walmart ships them on their trucks. Game Stop, I'm not sure. Walmart now sells computer parts and before they were on shelves, I actually saw what they were getting in before they put them on display. Little by little, new shipments came in. I have 2 jobs and one, I go from store to store and one day, I seen a power supply. Then the next week, graphics card. They had just come off their trucks. So yes, my theory is they were taken, most likely from Walmart.
@thelegendaryprog
I’m currently working for one of the big box retailers, and we were unable to even purchase the PS5 Pro on our system. Also there isn’t a discount for the console at the moment, so most likely this person acquired it illegally.
@BigRett
Send it back! In wrapping paper. Lol. Don't forget to put fragile on it though. 😂😂 Some of these ebay sellers are ridiculous!
@InTheKnow007
Just wait for it to come out at Best Buy or Walmart. Don't waste your money on a sketchy beat up console that you paid way too much for. Avoid ebay
@d_killer_ghost9251
When you buy something before release there is gonna be some mystery it comes with the territory. Be glad you got the system and made the video on time
@gregoryburkhead7813
What is crazy is. my post office. Or any shipping company in my area . Won't allow u to ship any unless u have the correct shipping box.
@ChrisGrump
100% stolen. Return it. Dont give money to a thief.
@bestechYtBotBH
yo, 60 dollars is all this scammer ebay seller can refund you, bruh, decline that crap, considering the fact that a ps5 pro is 700 and you paid 800 plus shipping for what the seller considers a "brand new" console when it's condition is a notch below, he should in all honesty be giving you 150 back, if you ask me.
@navjotbhullar2443
I used to work at a warehouse where all the PlayStation bundles were made, and they gave us the discount on those consoles of like 50-100$ and it was in 2021 So i think the guy got them from there I use to sell these on FB market place as well in 2021-22 when the supply was low was able to make easily 100$-200$ per unit
@fkqz
As a delivery driver and worked in warehhses, I can tell you that being labeled "fragile" means absolutely nothing. Everything gets thrown around from warehouse to warehouse.
@kylessportscards
I would try to get at least $100 or more refunded, mostly because of the awful packaging. The console would not have been damaged if the scammer would've at least put it in a box to protect it.
