Accidents and mistakes always happen, sometimes I mistype a word (I just managed to mistype the “a”), or I end up faceplanting into the ice. Technologically it’s much more common, but this usually doesn’t involve others or their property.

But Sony has managed to pull this off, they somehow managed to lose the winners list for those limited edition 20th Anniversary PlayStation 4s. In Japan, whoever has purchased a PlayStation 4, PS3, PS Vita or PS Vita TV between the timeframe of December 4 and January 15 received a unique code that could have been selected as a winner…

However, Sony did not actually explain how this accident happened. Sure, you might say it’s not a big deal, but when I say that some of those 12300 models ended up on eBay getting sold for 15, or even 20 thousand dollars, things can suddenly take a turn, right?
