      "question": "Trying to decide between the 2020 and 2021 models. Is the 2021 model worth the extra $450 cost over the 2020 model?",
      "answer": "If you've waiting this long, then you know the CX sold out last Black Friday. The C1 probably will be available for BF 2021. A lot of people who thought they could buy PS5s in 2020 have given up. They and vulture resellers were a huge part of the CX becoming scarce in 2020.\n\nI'd be happy with a CX, but where are people seeing them for $900? Resellers edge most people out of deals like that and then resell for more. If I'd seen a CX for $900 new over the past year, I'd have bought one. The C1 is already being discounted and might fall further after Thanksgiving.",
