Well, what else are we supposed to do? Our hands are tied. I live in the Seattle metro and for some insane reason we don’t have a single retail option for graphics cards. I wasn’t able to get one off Newegg on launch day before they were all gone to bots, so my only option was eBay.
I hate enabling scalpers but it was either that or risk paying 47’s stupid fucking tariffs. I had a narrow window to skip the tariffs upcharge and I took it. I would rather pay the extra $200 to an asshole scalper than to the federal government so they can spend it on their gestapo.

Oh I didn’t buy from a scalper. Well, not a third party scalper, to preempt the comments saying retail is scalping as well.
