Amazon finally launches an invite system for buying a PS5 or Xbox Series X

  • Amazon is launching an invitation system for high-demand products.
  • The company is hoping to improve availability and reduce price-gouging.

Amazon is working to tackle price-gouging on high-demand items, implementing an invite system for the PS5 and Xbox Series X, with more items likely to follow.

As a result of the semiconductor shortage and supply chain issues, the hottest gaming consoles have been a bit like Sasquatch — even if they exist, hardly anyone has seen one. Buyers who have managed to get their hands on one have often paid exorbitantly high prices, thanks to bad actors price-gouging customers. Amazon wants to address all of this with its new invite system.
