Do you have ten yuan you can lend me? Look, I know you don’t take out loans, but I swear I’ll pay you back.
Why do I need it? Do you really need to ask? Okay, I’ll be honest. There is a copy of Concord on eBay for £10,000, I didn’t buy it before it was taken off the shelves on September 6th, so scalpers are now my only option.

No, this PS5 copy (thanks to TheGamer), listed for sale to the first person to pay £10,000 / just over $13,000 or make what the seller thinks is the best offer, isn’t the only one being peddled by scalpers, but it does look like it’s the best one so far The most expensive so far. Come on, the title of this list is “Concord Ps5 Video Game Rare Pulled From Stores…LOL!” There’s a poop emoji at the end, so you know it’s worth it.
Seriously, they’re even offering you the chance to pay in installments at £471.65/$620.55 per month over 24 months – that’s two years of your life – if you can’t afford the full £10,000 in one lump sum.
Yes, there are some copies out there for sale at more reasonable prices, such as one for £137.47/$180.73, which looks to be the high water mark for copies that have actually been purchased so far, excluding postage on overpriced copies. Yes, that’s significantly more than the Concord’s previous retail prices of £34.99/$39.99 for the regular version and £49.99/$59.99 for the digital deluxe version.
Yes, at least one copy sold for £1 in the last 24 hours. Yes, because it’s designed to be almost entirely multiplayer, all of those copies will effectively be reduced to useless plastic souvenirs when the game shuts down on September 6th, unless it makes its way back further off the market.
But I need it.
Seriously, this goes without saying, but you probably shouldn’t buy any of these.
That’s not the only weird thing that’s happened since PlayStation’s ill-fated hero shooter announced it was shutting down, with some players starting to kill their characters as quickly as possible at the start of a match in an attempt to win points for the game.
