The panel itself has been flying off the virtual shelves due to an unprecedented level of demand since launch, in fact, we've seen scalpers attempt to sell the console for equally much as $1,077.

If you lot're waiting for a PS5 discount earlier picking up the system, you'll likely be waiting a while longer.
