There are too many Ebayers pricing the PS4 at 450 to 500 and some with games and PS+ bundles. There isn´t any general market rush to get the console, prices are much lower than PS3, Wii and 360 reached at their respective launch February. |
Bold #1: I don't think you understand how capitalism works. It's pretty self correcting. Even if a bunch of scalpers started hoarding the product and making them scarce in stores, when people go on eBay for example and see 10,000 PS4s on there, they're not gonna bid one up a whole bunch because there's other listings. If they can't find one in stores and on top of that, only 200 units are on ebay, then they'll bid them up because there's way less supply (and that people actually aren't scalping the product since there aren't a whole bunch being listed).
Bold #2 and yet it sells out pretty much immediately whenever stock is available. A product constantly selling out as soon as its available not indicating a "market rush to get the item" can only exist in Bizarro world.
