Oh, it is for sure happening. I bet there is people even buying from resellers and then trying to resell it themselves at an even higher price point, lol.

Even then, scalpers can and will use other means to buying more than one at a time (friends and family for example).

It is similar with PC parts. My PC is in dire need of upgrades, but the prices of new GPUs and CPUs are insane. 

I hope the shortages are fixed soon, so it is easier to buy a PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC parts. 

Shortage issues will be here for a long time. It's not just effecting the gaming industry either.

Has anyone done any discussion/research on the possibility that scalpers and shortages could hurt lifetime sales?
