Answer: 2) Adverse selection

Explanation:

Adverse selection occurs when one party to the transaction has more information than the other and so can exploit this information to increase their benefit in the transaction.

Kenny has more information than the buyers in this situation as he knows what the Xbox One has and so is charging a certain price of it. The buyers do not know this information and so do not understand why that particular price is being charged and so refuse to pay it.
