it's not the scalpers that cause the issue though. this happens with popular games that a lot of people want that end up limited (obviously more often than not it happens with very old games)
the scalpers do take advantage of the situation, but they aren't the ones generally driving demand. the issue is there are so many fans and gamers who are willing to pay whatever for a game. gamers are paying the high prices. if they didn't they would drop. just saying, the sellers don't create the prices, the buyers do
