PS5 Scalper Group Says Bad Press Aimed At Re-Sellers Is Not Justified

The Lab, a UK-based re-seller group associated with targeting PS5 and Xbox Series X, has spoken out against the negative press aimed at scalpers, suggesting it is not justified.

The paid-for community helps users to quickly track and purchase high-value goods using bots, which allows them to circumvent queues for online retailers and thus snap up products ahead of regular punters.

Speaking to Forbes, The Lab’s founder, known as Jordan, had the following to say:

There seems to be A LOT of bad press on this incredibly valuable industry and I do not feel that it is justified, all we are acting as is a middleman for limited quantity items. I mainly just try and help others now, that’s all that really matters to me. The whole group came about near the start of the first UK lockdown and it makes me so happy that I can help people make some extra money for themselves.

Jordan went on to say that the group donates to charity and local foodbanks.

We do a lot for charity as well. I myself or collectively as a group donate to charity almost monthly at this point. Most notably over the past month we donated a large portion of our membership fees to a foodbank local to me.
