*Entertaining meat bags who throw a fit at the first hint of prices rising in response to demand.
Perhaps if the gamers wouldn’t jump to calling any price increase over an MSRP defined in 2019 “gouging”, there would be some incentive to prioritize those parts.
Instead, the fair thing to do is to force everyone to camp on Twitter and wait for the “20 Xbox One X/PS5/GTX#### available at Walmart [update: sold out]” post lottery.
It is amazing to me that manufacturers (to be fair, per gamers’ demands) are giving money away to scalpers, instead of using the revenue from higher prices to buy more manufacturing and shipping capacity.
