Apparently you can get those listings easily removed by reporting them that the seller sells an “intangible item”. Which is true, since a reservation is indeed not a tangible item.
If you buy from scalpers, you’re part of the problem.
Why? It’s not even that compelling at the normal price. If it were 3x the price, who would possibly want to buy it?
The people that bought spacex stock.
You can build or buy a lot more computer than the Steam Machine for $3000, even at today’s absurd component prices. I’m not quite sure which is more moronic, trying to scalp a Steam Machine for that price or somebody actually paying it.
Scalpers are low lifes who don’t necessarily know much about the products they scalp. They must have thought it was going to be the same as the last few generations of gaming console releases.
I also believe that the typical potential customer for a Steam Machine will know better.
I’ll always remember going to a rise against concert and scalpers outside were saying “tickets for rise against the machine”, they have no idea what they are selling
If you spend US$3,000 on the Steam Machine your brain must be made of tofu.
full of protein? tell me where! I would switch to eat brains of tofu in a blink
