The PS5 was released earlier this month to a wild reception. Demand was high seeing as websites crashed, orders were cancelled, and stock was quickly sold out.

Because of this, many have struggled to get their hands on the long-awaited next-generation console. However, one individual managed to hit the jackpot.

The mysterious seller known simply by ‘Mark F’ spoke to Business Insider about how he managed to undertake this venture.

Mark, aged 22 and hailing from the US, was able to cop himself 221 PS5s using a combination of bots and online purchases and he’s been able to advertise the consoles online and sell them for nearly double the retail price.

Despite spending nearly £75,000 on the consoles, Mark is confident that he can sell the rest of the devices and turn a hefty profit.
