TAIPEI, Taiwan - A Taiwanese man who attempted to convince his wife that his PlayStation 5 was an air purifier was reportedly forced to sell the device after she discovered the ruse.
Jin Wu posted on Facebook that he purchased the gaming console second-hand. The PS5 has been highly coveted since its release last month.
Wu said the reseller he spoke with turned out to be the wife of the original owner, according to his translated social media post.
Wu wrote that the price was extremely affordable, especially considering the console has been sold out in most stores, and the woman was eager to sell it to him.
When he went pick up the PlayStation, he met the womans husband, who explained that he was forced to sell the gaming console after his wife realized it was not an air purifier, as he had told her.
Wu said the man seemed bitter.
Upon the release of the highly anticipated gaming device, consumers eager to get their hands on a new PS5 were met with a supply shortage.
Sony recently reassured shoppers that it would release more inventory before the end of the year.
"We want to thank gamers everywhere for making the PS5 launch our biggest console launch ever," PlayStation's official Twitter account said in a post. "Demand for PS5 is unprecedented, so we wanted to confirm that more PS5 inventory will be coming to retailers before the end of the year please stay in touch with your local retailers."

I'd be really pissed off, tbh.

he shouldn't have lied to his wife, but she shouldn't have made him sell his console, either.

If you have to lie to your SO about buying something that you enjoy and she sells it after finding out, thats a bad relationship.

On the flip side, if you guys arent financially stable and spend money you dont have on a PS5, and she had to sell it to pay bills, thats also a bad relationship.

wonder which side this is on.

Sounds like a bad marriage.

  1. He should not need to lie to his spouse about buying a game syatem.
  2. If he can afford it and still pay the bills then who cares what she thinks
  3. Unless they cant afford to eat/pay bills he should have told her to get fucked when she told him to sell it.
Bottom line: If you have to hide your hobbies from your spouse then its a shitty marriage. If your not hurting the budget be upfront about your purchase and if they complain then tell them bills are paid, food is on the table, I am buying things for my hobbies.

Why do women seem so entitled to sell men's stuff, if they don't like it? Though the idea that he had to lie about something he liked & that she was so brazen to just resell his things, suggests that they probably have a lot more problems.

You think that a person cant do what they want with their money NOT joint money after all the bills are paid ?

I think it's that you don't care what the person you're married to thinks or feels.

With something so innocuous, there should be no particular reason it should impact anything. Unless the guy's like a video game addict who promised to stop or they're in absolute poverty, she's the weird one in the scenario.

But he didn't say to look into the "why" outside of surface level reasons. He just said he doesn't care what the wife thinks. If you can't see how damaging that is to a marriage, you're gonna fail at all relationships. Not caring what someone thinks is a clear sign you don't respect the person. You should make sure you respect somebody before you get married to them. There's no respect behind telling someone to "get fucked".

If its a three pot system fine. But you dont know that its not joint in this case and seem to just think all thats needed to be paid are bills. Some people like to have more savings or have financial goals theyre aiming for. Ive been eyeing a $1500 YSL purse for a couple of years. It wont break the bank but we have other goals we prioritize and Im not just going to buy it and tell my husband to fuck off lmao

Well I am a believer in that what money a person has in their account not a joint account is theirs to spend how they wish. Yes a person should have savings but if they want something and buy it with their money it should not be an issue.

If it breaks the bank then yes there is a problem but a man or woman should be able to buy what they want when the vitals are taken care of.

This guy also made the mistake of taking the PS5 back but again that is my thoughts.

If I have to lie to get a PS5 and my wife would sell my PS5 out of spite... fuck that marriage. Straight up. That kind of shit is divorce worthy. Not the actual action itself. Its the entire process. Clearly its a shit marriage.

I did actually have a regular at the casino that had promised to stop gambling because his wife got pregnant. She wanted him to stop wasting so much at the tables. As curious as I am about the reasoning here, how tf did this end up in the news.
