NuclearVision wroteI am not blaming them of robbery, it's offer and demand, but they are authorized dealers, shouldn't their prices be more real rather than 2-3x msrp, Aren't they sourcing the hardware from manufacturers,?
Keeping prices at MSRP would be unrealistic because keeping them at normal prices would make the shortage worse, inflating prices helps balance out the shortage until demand and supply go back to normal again.
MSRP is irrelevant, it is based on ceteris paribus, meaning if the market demand and supply and everything else remains the same, which would be unrealistic to use with bitcoin and covid going crazy everywhere. This MSRP would be invalid. MSRP is just a recommendation anyway, it's not a condition. manufacturers themselves don't sell at MSRP sometimes.

The hardware they are sourcing is not enough. That's the problem.
