The article above discusses how scalpers are having a hard time to resell PlayStation 5 Pro consoles because the console is in stock at most retailers. Makes me happy to hear that, especially with how often scalpers screw people over. Now that there is actual available stock, these scalpers can't abuse the system to their advantage. Due to this, scalpers have had to lower their prices to have a chance to make sales or make out even. 

I think the big reason for this is most people already have a PS5, and don't need a pro, and some just don't want one for that price. I feel the demand isn't as big as it was with the original PS5 console and the slim. 

But it's good to see scalpers lose out once in a while.

I mean, when you sell something at $700 that's not a massive upgrade on its previous counterpart and remove the disc tray and price it way higher, I can see why nobody's rushing to buy it.

It's about time the scalpers were the ones getting screwed. They're all worthless pieces of shit, and the reason that often, people can't get the item in question because the scalpers have all of them and charge a 300% markup for the item. I absolutely DESPISE scalpers.

I'm also glad this happened. These scalpers have really become a pain to deal with. I mean, I was looking up the prices for a Ryzen 9800X3D out of curiosity and the scalper pricing is ridiculous!

It's refreshing to see scalpers struggling! The increased availability of PS5 Pro consoles shows consumers are winning against price gouging.

This is common on eBay with a lot of things, such as Blu-rays that are out of print. This is when the supplier like the popular brands such as Arrow Video no longer distributes the film, after a wave of batches are sold off. So you will end up seeing £15 copies that are sealed, going for like £80 or whatever. And that's just ludicrous charging all that for a movie.

This is very satisfying.  Those scum deserve every little bit of bad karma that comes thier way.
