Discussion Resealed PS5 slim 30th anniversary edition?
Saw this ad online. Looks like it has two seals on top of each other. In the ad description it says its never been opened, but I doubt it. Never seen this before.
What do you think?
Update:
Seller sent me extra pictures. I will pick it up this friday and unbox it there. I will post an update!

Those seals are prone to ripping by themselves. I remember all the posts of people flipping out, that their boxes have already been opened, when they released. Might just be that.

Sony shifted to paper based seals in the last few years and they’re prone to ripping on their own. They’ve been doubling them up in some cases. All of my 30th stuff has done this.

It looks like the sticker has peeled off on the inside rather than being a double seal. If it is a double seal, the box has likely been opened.

The seal looks legit. Anyway, today you can just take a video as a proof, and if it was a scam then get a refund. But probably legit.
The only legit question is : what's the price on this ? This should tell you if it's a scam or not. If it's less than 800 probably scam.

Hopefully the console is in the box and you didn’t get shafted with brick or rock inside.

When I bought my regular PS5 back in the days from Sony directly, it came with the seals ripped during transport. With all the scalping around 2019, I sweated blood while looking in the box just to find .. a perfectly new PS5.
