This could be shocking but it's true, scalpers have sold 50,000 pieces of RTX3000 graphic cards on ebay, that's over 60 million dollars in sales and they've made up to 15 million dollars in profits according to Micheal driscoll who is a data engineer

Fixed title.

Yeah scalping and reselling won't end until eth crashes.

I don't see a price crash for months to come.
I do see gear shortages lasting for months to come.

As always during the hype mining, equipment sellers earn the most, as during the gold rush of 1850.
I also come across the fact that in my city on platforms selling used things, resellers sell video cards at prices 2-3 times
higher than their market price. There are no video cards in the stores or their choice is very limited.

Scalpers are very smart, they use bots to make purchases from retailers, these retailers use MSRP so I don't see how Nvidia and AMD are scalpers themselves, the same thing is affecting Sony playstation 5 and Xbox series X too, are they scalpers too?

I don't think this bull season will be over pretty fast like in 2017, it seems this one will stay around for a very long time, also altcoin season haven't really start yet so there is possibility that Ethereum mining will even be more profitable in coming months due to higher price

That's the reason why graphics card are too costly and scarce at the same time, imagine buying a old rx580 gpu for 600$ in my country, it's so ridiculous, I do hope something can be done to fix all this scalpers issue someday, I couldn't buy a gaming console because of scalpers too, I have to wait probably till the end of the year
