    It sucks but what you wrote is exactly correct.

    We saw it with concert tickets before they started raising prices. We saw it with gpus in the last couple years, Nvidia had to raise prices because we were seeing scalpers and we were seeing shortages.

    Sucks, but when you have something that there’s a limited amount of and an unlimited number of dollars or what have you being printed, this is the final result.

    (And I guess if we’re being honest, if a lot of people like a certain artist, there’s just going to be lots of demand for the thing.)
