Sounds like you need to brush up on the definition of a scam.

Overcharging for something that's clearly identified isn't a scam, and your idea of what qualifies as "overcharging" isn't universal.

You sound like you're butthurt about others having disposable income and choosing one product over a cheaper option. I've had my elite controller for 5+ years. There are cheaper options out there but the elite is the most comfortable controller for my hands.
