Gamescom 2018 is in full swing. Fortnite fans who were lucky enough to attend the event this year were greeted with one Fortnitethematic amusement park in one of the halls, with an assortment of challenges and prizes such as a free battle pass and an exclusive one Fortnite spray of a purple pixella.

Those who could not attend the event to get this spray flew to the web to try to find a code. If you are looking for a reasonable scalper price, S.O.L. to be. Lists about the reselling of websites such as eBay have increased enormously.

The codes, which contain only the spray and nothing else, each cost about $ 150 US each, with the lowball players selling for about $ 80. The spray is one of two exclusive events that were revealed by Epic Games. Another spray is at PAX West at the end of the month.

Overpricing codes should not be a surprise. In July, those who are looking for the articles in the PlayerUnknown & # 39; s Battlegrounds Global Invitational 2018 were marked up to $ 650 for the complete set.

Because the prices are still spiraling for the spray, we can only hope that the PAX West sprays are not inflated as excessively as these. Ah, who are we kidding? Break that piggy bank open.
