Luxurious games at a price. Playstation 5 is the most popular gaming console on the planet right now. Although you can buy one at the store for about $ 500, scalpers sell PS5 for over $ 1,000 online (and people pay those prices). The search for the system is due to Sony’s “stock deficit”. The company repopulated the system as soon as possible, but continues to sell. And with the pandemic of electronics stores closing, it has made hunting even more difficult for players. For those more generous players, who have millions of euros at their disposal, there is a superb custom option offered by Caviar. The catch is that there is only one. You can own a Playstation 5 covered with 20 kilograms of 18 carat gold at an unknown price. The seller has only one contact, but as in most of the glorious things on this planet: if you have to ask for the price, you can’t afford it. At least that seems to be their motto. The gold plating is located above the crocodile skin, offering a bright console and interesting texture and contrast. Called the “Golden Rock”, this custom Playstation 5 is beautiful. Currently, the price of a kilogram of 18-karat gold is $ 45,000. With this 20-pound PS5, that means almost a million dollars in gold. Then add the $ 500 price for the console. And, of course, the buyer will also pay for the artist’s time making the piece, and its rarity being the only one made. That means we’re most likely looking at a $ 5-10 million gaming artwork right here.
