Hey all, why is there a £100 difference between the 2 listings? Is one of them fake?

 

Cheap:

SteelSeries Arctis Pro + GameDAC Gaming Headset - Certified Hi-Res Audio System for PS4 and PC : Amazon.co.uk: PC & Video Games

 

"Normal" price:

SteelSeries Arctis Pro + GameDAC Wired Gaming Headset - Certified Hi-Res Audio - Dedicated DAC and Amp - for PS5/PS4 and PC - Black : Amazon.co.uk: PC & Video Games

Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");

This is quickly turning into an amazon rabbit hole

yes because it says "prices new & used" but there's no option to select new, and there's no new product in that selection, like 🤷‍♂️s

I noticed the delivery times are different, so maybe it's a different carrier?

Sellers are free to sell products at whatever price they want. This is why you shop around.

I normally see this going for super expensive, but I don't know if everyone is overcharging of if that is just how much they cost

You can just go on their official website lol.

180 USD, but it's discontinued so you're going to see wild price variances in reseller prices.

but it's not new, the Amazon doesn't tell you it's new on the product's page for some odd reason
