Scalpers were basically non existent in the 4xxx series. They’re not some boogieman that always raises prices. They work under certain market conditions, and there’s no particular reason to think this generation will be much different than the last.

The 4090 basically never went for MSRP until Q4 2024… and now it’s OOS everywhere.

Bull fucking shit. I was trying to buy a 4090 for like a year. Couldn’t find anything even approaching retail. Most were $2.3k+.
