Hacking Worth it to overpay for a Ps4 just for hen support?

[Gdourado]

Hello, how are you?
Where I am from, I can easily get a Ps4 console brand new for 180 euros.
While a console that is sure to be 4.55 or below is at least 330. That is the cheapest I could find.
So my question is if it is worth it to overpay so much just to have hen support in its still new and not very stable state.
What do you think?
Those here that hunt low firmware consoles, why do you do it?

Cheers

what does a regular console go for brand new?

if you search around, you can find deals without having to overpay. 4.55 consoles aren't that old...

I would use the forum as a guide to try find a low fw package, however I would not over pay as 5.0X kernel could be round the corner.

The guide is here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/suggestion-ps4-bundles-firmware-list.487337/

I don’t mean overpay in the sense of it.
300 euros is a regular price for a 1tb slim console I think.
The thing is that there are many deals for consoles on newer firmwares.
Like a pro for 250.
So my thought is I spend 330 euros for a slim tomhafe hen now and then in a couple of weeks a new exploit comes along and I could have bought the pro cheaper...

I would just be patient and wait for the right opportunity if you can.

I didn't want to pay a premium either then I found someone selling a brand new pro for $300 on Craigslist and asked them to check the firmware which turned out to be 4.55. I sold my original PS4 that was on 5.01 for $200 the next day.

So sometimes patience pays off and you end up with more then could have hoped.
