The long-awaited PlayStation 5 was launched yesterday, and as we have announced, it is not exactly easy to get hold of the new game console. Among other things, Elkjøp was sold out in five seconds, writes the website Tek.no..
Some customers have to settle for picking up in the spring before they get a product they ordered as early as April this year.
Following yesterday’s Norway launch of PlayStation 5, a bunch of PlayStation 5 ads have appeared on Finn.no, where the game console is out for as much as 40,000 kroner.
The person who has posted PS5 for 40,000 kroner does not want to answer questions from Dinside.

In comparison, the PS5 costs NOK 5990 new.
Opposite NRK tells someone who sells a PS5 on Finn that he put it out for 30,000 kroner and has received bids up to 13,000 kroner, but it is not just bids that have appeared in the inbox.
– I have received bids up to 13,000 kroner here. But also lots of other messages where people ask me to be ashamed of myself and that I will burn in hell, he says to NRK.

To the same website, Kathrine Opshaug Bakke, product director at Finn, says that it is not a new phenomenon that rare goods, or goods of which there are few, are sold at Finn, which does not interfere with what the price level is at.
– Playstation 5 fits into the range of goods that are few in the market and therefore the price is also pushed upwards. Whether people are willing to pay that much is another matter. But FINN does not usually interfere with what the price level is. As long as the seller and buyer adhere to the usual guidelines for safe and legal trade with us, she tells NRK.
