UK resellers have massively bought up PS5 Pro disc drives and are selling them at an inflated price, creating a shortage

The PlayStation 5 Pro will not come with a disc drive, so if you want to continue playing your physical copies of games, you'll need to buy one separately. However, it has now become a real scarce commodity.

Here's What We Know

The resellers have bought up a lot of disc drives and are now selling them at an inflated price. A similar story has already happened during the release of the PlayStation 5, when people also resold the console for a lot of money.

So now all you have to do is wait for new official deliveries if you didn't have time to buy one or don't want to pay the resellers.

For example, in the UK, the official price is around £100, while prices on eBay range from £180 to £260.

However, it seems that this problem is mostly a UK issue, as US gamers say they can find the drives in some big box stores.
