Last year Sony celebrated 20 years of Playstation consoles. To commemorate the event it launched a special 20th Anniversary Edition PlayStation 4. It’s really no different aside from the color which is a tribute to the original PlayStation console. They are in high demand since only 12,300 units were produced.

Now a man is asking for $20,300 on Kickstarter so that he can take a sledgehammer to a 20th Anniversary Edition PS4. I can think of much better uses of your money, but to each their own.

In the U.S. Sony sold out of this limited edition PS4 within a few hours. Same thing happened in the UK. In the first few days the 20th Anniversary PlayStation 4 was selling for over $20,000 but now there are more units available on many auction websites so the going rate seems to be just over $1,000.

Charles Tiongson now has a Kickstarter which involves him unboxing a 20th Anniversary Edition PS4, “but afterward I will use a sledge hammer to utterly destroy it,” the description reads. $1 gets you a link to the YouTube video before its released. For $5 you can have your name or PSN ID in the credits. $50 gets the link, name or PSN ID in the credits and a small piece of the broken console. $100 gets all of the above with a larger piece of the broken console.

It doesn’t end there. $400 gets the link, mention in the credits and broken PlayStation Eye pieces. $500 gets the link, name or PSN ID mention in credits and broken pieces of the console’s DualShock 4 controller. However, all of this weirdest might be a scam. Tiongson says that he’s not sure when this video will premier. “We will still need to purchase the equipment,”

Right now it is at $121. with 4 backers.
