The bids rose to 3,200 dollars

The dedicated console "was only opened so that Phil Spencer could sign it," said the announcement posted Wednesday, January 27 on the auction site.

At present, the price of the Xbox Series X equipped with a storage space of 1 TB has reached 3,200 dollars (2,637 euros).

On the other hand, auctions are only accessible to people residing in the United States.

They will end on February 2.
