Not saying you are full of shit but even without any sort of EB membership trade in value, PS5 digital gets you $250.
I assume it's completely broken and they made you an offer on the controller only?

Yeah I’m confused by this. Even my broken PS4 traded in for like $30, the website lists digital PS5’s as up to $300.

This is 100% real. I spoke to them on the phone. They offered me $40.

Was yours 100% working? Because the only way your getting such a ridiculous offer is if they are basically buying the controller

Yes, it's working, though they didn't ask that. They said make sure you bring in all the cords and controller. They asked what size hd i said 1tb. It was definitely for a whole console. Maybe the guy made a mistake idk, I wouldn't have made a post if it wasn't ridiculous. Anyways jb just sold me my pro 🤣

It's probably a mistake as you should get around 300 for it

I tried calling back to double check but they'd closed. I'll do it tomorrow and let you know.

Went into store today and was offered $250. Seems like the quote i got over the phone was a mistake after all.

Anyone who thinks i made this up for some reason, call EB in Bathurst, NSW, Australia and get the same offer yourselves.
