Scalpers, im sure
To sell for an even more ridiculous amount of money?
Was there that much demand for the steam deck at the new higher price? I know Lemmy is a bubble but everyone pretty much says it was too much.
Edit: I just saw this in the article so I checked and I can get a 512gb version for $699 on eBay right now. If it is scalpers then they aren't making money.
