If the one is really that tight, then why are they going for roughly only 20% more on ebay?
 Ps4 on the other hand is going for 50% more.

 

 Because the actual price is already higher on Xbox One? Or is higher percentage now an indicator for demand?!

Are you saying that customers are only ready to spend 600$ in any case?

And price is literally determined by demand.


@bold: so the demand is the same? Thanks for making this clear.

Of course there is a limit for people spending money on toys. What do you expect? Say PS4 would be $600  - would you expect people still pay 50% more just to get it? Really?

To me, both systems are worth the same on ebay for potential customers, no matter how much they cost you if you buy them regulary.

You are using basic demand formula. Percentage of price increase is also relative to demand.


But only in a limited way. Take a look again to the example I gave you with a more expensive PS4. And there is no "formula", you are making the percentage point way too important to strengthen your message which doesn't make it more true.
