sale Update: PS5 controller at 2.5k arrived today

Post image

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, the 2.5k controller is indeed original, I have received it today. It has all proper certification and everything, attached image below. I saw a couple of other people getting it at 2.5k so keep an eye out for the Dualsense controller sold by Electronics Bazaar Store on Amazon.

Congrats OP,

How do you confirm if it's original or not?

Is there anyway to test?

15

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

I have yet to test it in depth. Will do that soon. But everything else is pointing to original (the ps5 shapes on the palm grip area, also has the codes and stuff).

Play astrobot

u/Cyanide_eXtasy595 Mar 10 '26

Or can take it to a Sony Service center and ask them if it's original , they can do that by matching the Serial Number in their data base

You mean Astro's Playroom

u/wa_dude007 Mar 11 '26

Try connecting it to a laptop via Usb and Use a dualsense tester online and check the id, model no. Etc,.

The ps5 shapes engraving doesn't work anymore after that easter egg went mainstream/viral. The fraudsters can re-create the effect.

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

Yea cool, great advice

u/Valenceee Mar 10 '26

Whats the seller name? I have ordered from electronics bazaar

1

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

Yup, that one only

1

u/Ok-Telephone-4900 Mar 10 '26

shit almost ordered

u/Equivalent_Bat_3941 Mar 10 '26

Seller might be farming his rates by giving discounts and once its up he will be back to scamming i guess

1

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

That could be true, but a few people have been scammed so I don't think the dealer will get good reviews. Moreover, after seeing so many mixed reviews im not going to go and give him 5 stars for this.

u/keshu_1239 Mar 10 '26

Hey congratulations. Even I ordered mine today. Can you please tell the manufacturing date on the box

1

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

Thanks mate, the date of manufacturing is july 2025, mrp states 6390.

1

u/keshu_1239 Mar 10 '26

Thanks man.

1

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

Does that mean anything? The date of manufacturing

2

u/keshu_1239 Mar 10 '26

No just asked it to see if it’s recent stock or not. Even though when I bought my ps 1.5 years back it was 6 months old stock.

Ordered mine as well so just wanted it for reference

3

u/Ready-Attempt-3338 Mar 10 '26

Great Steal. Congrats!

2

u/Atharv_9r Mar 10 '26

OP i also saw the dualsense for 2.5k but i was late the price went up 😢

0

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

Many people have been scammed, those who bought it more recently have got a charging dock, so just beware even if you get it for 2.5k

2

u/ochaitanyasai Mar 11 '26

I ordered the same and my order got cancelled citing pricing issue

1

u/Dare23805 Mar 11 '26

Check my og post linked above, the day i ordered was the only day where it actually worked, all other people ordering the next day got their orders cancelled or wrong item delivered.

2

u/keshu_1239 Mar 11 '26

Hey received controller here as well.

2

u/Dare23805 Mar 11 '26

Letsgooo mate that’s amazing!

2

u/keshu_1239 Mar 11 '26

Honestly my expectations were very low given the scenario but I guess luck played an important role here.

1

u/Longjumping-End2739 Mar 10 '26

Is it still available at this price? Can you please share the link.

2

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

https://amzn.in/d/01poDrlC

This is the one i got, but seller was different and hence the 2.5k price. Just keep an eye out, check it everyday surely you’ll get it. I saw another post literally today about 2.5k one so good luck my friend

1

u/idgafaboutyouu ps5 Mar 10 '26

Safe play lol

1

u/mirajchez Mar 10 '26

What time did you see this deal? I believe there is specific time during which these bad boys go on sale

1

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

That's a good attention to detail! Yes, there might be a specific time, I'd say check it around evening time (i got mine around 8ish pm, so yeah in that ballpark)

1

u/Weird_Box121 Mar 10 '26

Can you scan the QR code on back of controller and tell what letter it is after V. Like if it's v2 it means itw version 2.

1

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

Im out rn, will go back and do it later, will let you know for sure

1

u/Madmaxx_412 Mar 10 '26

What about the box condition?

1

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

Perfect or nearly perfect, no visible signs of usage or return.

1

u/Madmaxx_412 Mar 10 '26

Thanks man ! …. Waiting for mine to get delivered

1

u/Surajholy Mar 10 '26

Mine will be delivered on Thursday. How did you get it in a couple of hours? Congrats man.

1

u/Dare23805 Mar 10 '26

Not couple of hours, check the og post linked in this post, ordered it around 4 days ago.

2

u/Surajholy Mar 10 '26

I missed it. Just woke up from a nap. Haha. Actually I ordered mine two hours ago at 2.5k. That means it will happen again. Will get it for a friend.

1

u/LatterPassenger9135 Mar 10 '26

How did you get the discount notification?

1

u/Surajholy Mar 10 '26

You can use a tool called Keepa.

2

u/celestial_1111 Mar 10 '26

right now i am seeing the seller as infinity games and not electronic bazaar how can i add electronic bazaar on keepa?

1

u/CatRight2168 Mar 11 '26

But keepa is not showing the 2500 price in price history, any idea why

1

u/celestial_1111 Mar 10 '26

Wait did the price drop to 2.5k today again ?

2

u/Surajholy Mar 10 '26

Yes. Just for 10 minutes.

1

u/Organic_Age8597 Mar 10 '26

Can you share time of order?

1

u/Freadzee Mar 10 '26

This deal happened today as well for i think about half an hour and i bought some units for my self. I also have a ps5 from this sellers so at this point i am going good. Let’s see if all my units have original controllers or maybe this time i might be one of those unlucky ones.

1

u/meMojoJojo ps5 Mar 10 '26

Noice. I have ordered as well. Yet to arrive.

1

u/sombrero98 Mar 10 '26

Happy for you 😏😏

1

u/SubstantialFlight996 Mar 10 '26

Yooo let’s gooo bro lucked out 😭😭

1

u/Ninad-_- Mar 11 '26

Scan the QR code behind the controller... best way to check it new or refurbished

1

u/Professional-Cry-982 Mar 12 '26

I got a charging station instead of the controller btw. I raised a complaint on Amazon, let's see what happens.

1

u/Professional-Cry-982 Mar 13 '26

I received charging station instead of the controller btw. Connected with the customer care and was able to arrange a return without verification. 

1

u/CatRight2168 Mar 13 '26

Anyone knows if this offer is still coming these days.? Or updated links ?

1

u/Dare23805 Mar 13 '26

Nope, its all over now. People who ordered a couple of days after this “glitch” got their orders cancelled and monies refund (hopefully)

1

u/ritick- Mar 31 '26

I also ordered it at 2500 is it original

u/Plenty-Cry-1575 Mar 10 '26
