STEAM CONTROLLER IS SOLD OUT #shorts
コメント ページ 5 / 5
They should have made it like they done with the Steam Deck. Only on there Website and only when you have a Steam Account for 2 weeks and a 2 hour playtime and last but not least only 1 per person.
what is the point of I am not a robot tests if this is still happening
When will be a law be made against scalpers? I don't know... 😤
Don’t buy from scalpers, I’ll wait until the become available again
Looks terrible
Scalping should be tortured
We n3ed to work together. DONT BUY IT FROM SCALPERS.
Daily reminder that scalpers aren’t people… do what you will with that information.
Here's an idea. Don't buy from scalpers. Let them have a much of controllers that they cant do anything with. If people had just a little bit of willpower, we could end scalping
- @Naxcel 0
Its simple. Let Valve make bank of the scalpers, but listen. STEP 1 - DONT BUY FROM THE SCALPERS! Be patient. Wait for restock, and then buy while the scalpers are sitting on tons of inventory that they cant sell. STEP 2 - Only buy from aftermarket sellers once you see their prices drop below retailer price points. This will ensure that scalpers are not profiting and wont make back the difference. They will simply trying to salvage what they can from a bad investment. Do I think people will listen to me on mass? Na... They never do... Yet I shall continue to try...
I got mine 🥰 no I ain't scalping it sorry. Knew this bad boy would sell out in the hour
I was going to buy it.... till i can't.😢 I was so pissed
I was lucky to order one by forcing paypal to work to place an order for it. It took 30 mins Btw
Can we all just mass report scalpers 😢 they ruin everything , every hobby is turned into a wierd market that they probably use as a mkney lodnering scheme.
Shouldn't they have like a order thing that makes them to be bought and sent when available.
This is why they need limits to purchases 1-2 per customer that’s it and it’s caught going to the same address multiple times after a purchase it will be flagged and payment won’t go through. I know it’s not the best solution but it’s the best I can think of for some type of fairness
...i want evay shut down for the next week purely so these scalpers cant get a single dime. I waited all week for this. I had my money ready. I was logging in the moment the controller started to sell. And I didnt get one because of these assholes.
I can imagine they bought their own controllers $99 then resell them on ebay for $300
SCALPERS SHOULD (cannot say that on YouTube) THEMSELVES!!!
Easy. Just play on PC.
Scalping should be illegal. Just completely ban the practice.
scalpers is so awesome
- @OriX360 0
It just works.
Maybe we should not buy from scalpers, and they end up having 30 controllers they’ll never use or be able to sell
I've said it before, but most "scalpers" work for these companies. The money is funneled back in through the higher sales. Companies just give the illusion things are cheap upfront for the consumers frame of mind and to keep up the goodwill they have. But in reality it's all just a scheme. Seems like if demand was so high most companies would just make more, but no they just let the "scalping" happen because it's bigger profits for them.
I don't know why Valve isn't just crushing the scalping issue by requiring people who want to purchase a controller to have already purchased a Steam game and have a steam account of some minimum age (1 month, for example).
And.... It's gone
Im lucky
Why didnt steam put a limit on how many per customer???? I see people having 9 plus of these for sale. Also 99 euro was stretching it imo. Never gonna spend more on a controller then i spend on a mouse. Smh
They are doing this on purpose! This how they actually make money💯
Nothing would be scalped if people didnt pay them
Bruh...
- @dekadis 0
And it's gone
Not getting the Steam Machine now anyway
Valve should produce a shitton of Gabecubes but release only a couple. After one or two weeks when the scalpers nade their offers, Valve should release the rest.
PS5 release ptsd
This is why we need scalper police buyer item purchase history check kinda like dumb age verification but completely different
- @DSBOY33 0
Welp back to the Xbox controller to the PC😢
Will be exactly what happened with ticket providers who for years onsold directly to their internal divisions setup to look unconnected, with soul purpose to mark up products through their artificial created layer.
- @Neuvali 0
Sclapers should get the death penalty
Overrated controller tbh
You would think steam would have a way to track this and just cancel those orders.
Scalping should be illegal.
There's actually a trick some companies use to mess with scalpers and keep prices low. Unfortunately, for like the first 2 weeks the price will be high. The trick is, release, run out, release again, run out again, flood release and now they won't run run out but the scrapers at least most of them are out money and at the same time online resale (and sclapped) prices are forced to drop, often below store prices. Hopefully, valve thought of this.
Just get an Xbox controller
Who is paying these scalpers?
The scalpers are already selling them on EBay for triple the price. Steam allowed this to happen instead of forcing one purchase per account!
How were they able to buy all the stock, isn't it 1 per user? Meh.. I mean.. I saw people scalp limited edition ice cream..
I tried buying at 10am on the dot steam said it was having issues I checked back 20min later sold out😢
I got 2 successfully 😎
- @JC_514 0
It's not steam's fault
The best way to get rid of scalpers is to not buy their overpriced crap. Patience kills scalpers
It only works if you buy it from them
Scalpers are scum of the Earth.
Scalping should be illegal
Didn’t they already try the steam machine with Alienware
Scalping should be a crime. Not a federal, but crime. Punishable with a big fine.
Bots
Steam is a smart company, the controller release was probably test to see how scalpers used their system to be able to put sustems into place for the GabeCube launch
Scalpers should be forced to sell anything they scalp for 50% of the product's MSRP. If they don't. They should be arrested for scalping and price gouging.
Scalping should be made illegal If our government wasnt run by idiots we could do something about it
Yeah - this sucks... Nintendo beat the scalpers with overstocking the Switch 2, but it looks like we are back to this BS with everything else.
I tried buying it but every single time my phone wouldn’t let me, I tried buying it the minute it came out and my phone just would not update the fact that I had over 100 bucks in my account to pay for it
Hopefully they will learn from this for future drops.... There are so many ways to prevent this from happening
- @jrc-12 0
At this rate I just stick it to the music for now
Scalpers may ruin the marked, but its like Onlyfans. Wouldn't exist if people didn't actually pay for it. Its the same people that if they can, pay-to-win in games and act like Elon Musk, thinking they are good at the game.
Friendly idea for valve and steam.... Make it only available to people who have had steam accounts for a period of 6 months to a year and have at least 40 hours in any game?
Scalpers disgust me
Thanks to the Gaming Industry Practices I have Already Dropped Gaming Completely, I used to have every Console all the way back to Atari, Wish i still Had them All, but was Upgrading like everyone else. Now I'd need a Second Mortgage to do that 😂
- @JayXan 0
The real problem is ppl buy them from scalpers
I'm not a scalper but I did manage to get one this morning.
Scalpers are really the scum of the earth. Not even Mr Crabs is this greedy
ID the buyers
For 2k just buy a higher mid tier gaming pc
Scalpers are subhumans. There’s no nice way of putting it.
Scalpering should be illegal worldwide like seriously
I worked overnight last night. I was in bed by 8:30am Eastern. I had an alarm set for 12:45pm so I could be up in time for the controller launch. At 1:00, I put it in my cart then I kept getting the error preventing me from reviewing my payment option. After thirty minutes, the controller was sold out. I was so mad.
And the worst part of the scalpers is that THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE THE CONTROLLERS YET. They listed their offers with just the stock photos of the controller. None of them actually have it. So you're paying triple the price, for double the wait time.
The scalpers gonna lose so much money on steam machine like they did on ps5 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
People gotta understand sold out is mostly a marketing gimic.
"we been spendin most our lives, livin in a scalpers paradise"😂😂😂😂
That's why I keep myself with just gaming phones and laptops they are always available and you could get them half price usually after 6 months
STOP. BUYING. FROM. SCALPERS. YOU. ARE. PART. OF. THE. PROBLEM.
what does bro want steam to do about it
They'll make more right? Just wait for a restock instead of paying scalpers. Usually best to wait awhile before buying new tech anyway.
I honestly hate the controller, not everything, it IS amazing but that D-pad SUCKS, i wouldve much preferred it to be like playstations D-pad
I dont like the stick position...so ill never buy one anyways.
It should only be max 2 per address for a whole month before your allowed to buy another.
Easy fix use a PS5 controller i do all the time. Why spend money on another controller, just to have s a steam come on now
The thing I don't understand is why Valve didn't do the lottery system. What they did with the steam deck. Because when that happened, you only had to pay a $5 deposit up front and then you were put into a queue. Of when you would be able to purchase your Steam deck. That way it completely overrided the scalpers
Limit 2 per steam account/credit card, for the first month of sales they could limit it to only people who have at least 750 hrs of play time (cuz 720hrs is 1 month) are allowed to purchase up to 2, AND if you don’t meet those requirements it gets ur ip address that you’re purchasing from and blocks it for 1 week from purchasing another at least during the 1st month of sales.
Can we sue scalpers?
Even with all those anti scalping things Steam implemented you still can’t get rid of those fuckers… Gabe! Ramp up the production!
Should just be a law that limits all tech that’s not being sold to a large business to 2 per ID.
The Steam Machine is probably the most pointless console of all time. Who is it even for? Its older technology than the PS5 and more expensive 😂
Well many people have steam games and they can play them like a console with their tv
Man we need multiple recaptchas on big tickey items to avoid this kind of s***. Yeah it's annoying for us but it's better than not being able to buy it
I rather just wait amd be patient. Scalpers only exist because it works. Stop paying them and lwtting your FOMO run your life
They should make a law against scalpers
Throw all scalpers into the Sun
I had it in my cart but it wouldn’t let me order it when it was available. 😭
Bro it was so frustrating. I sat there on the controller page for like 2 hours and I didn’t get one until the 2nd restock. You had to spam the checkout button to get one it was ridiculous
- @pops91 0
Is sad but I've been using bots just so I can have a chance to buy 1
Man, I really hope nobody buys the Steam Controllers from those Scalpers and them go broke
Better fix...give each controller a specific code and also print it on all the sides of the box. People trying to scalp can then be reported and their accounts deleted then they can't scalp anymore due to needing to create an account and to buy a controller their accounts must be at MINIMUM 1 year old and have purchased something at that time not recent purchases but old purchases count
😅😅😅
If only dumbasses wouldn't pay scalpers there would be no demand for that. They would lose their revenue
All hail Playstation again 👏👏
- @ZeroJ 0
😂😂😂 Is everyone going to realize that Valve doesn't really care about you now? They are either extremely stupid and don't know how to run business or they knew that this was going to happen and they simply took zero precautions to prevent it because of course bots and scalpers were going to buy up this overpriced piece of garbage controller and then try to resell them. So what is it Is Valve just stupid and doesn't know how to do business or were they willfully ignorant of scalpers and took no precautions which means they are just like every other company and don't care about scalping because they're getting paid either way.
I mean... I can just wait, let those scalpers keep their controllers, I have patience
Scalpers should get scalped
When you only release 500 units, it tends to be sold out.... Anyway, what a garbage controller that is.
Shoes and clothes is one thing but when it comes to games is ridiculous
Thanks god I manage to get one
Good thing i was sitting on the website 2 minutes before launch, spammed myself through the process for 2 minutes and thus got mine 2 minutes after release...then 1,5 hours later it was sold out.
i waited and when it came out i got an error on every device that i cant buy it and it ended up that being out of sale
Thas why I'm still playing my Xbox One.
Scalping should be illigal
AHHHHHUGGHHHH *NOT AGAIN!!* THOSE BASTARDS ARE AT IT AGAIN!!!
scalpers go after anything that is scares due to hype and has a value...
Fuk the 300$ from Scalpers why was it Almost 100 to begin with?
- @xxV28xx 0
This is why i wait months/years before getting new equipment.
Not just scalpers used AI to fraudulently purchased and sold at ridiculous prices, but also the console market industry is broken beyond repair due to insane price hikes and computer component shortages.
Valve really needs to bring back the Steam Deck reservation system for future releases. Only existing accounts with a certain amount of playtime can order and limit 2 per account.
Steam should require you to have a steam account to order the Steam Machine online and limit it to one order per customer.
Funny I just checked for it this afternoon It was wiped out
I dont normally advocate violence or theft against others, but if a verified scalper is out in the wild, its fair game 🤷🏽♂️
It actually would not surprise me if the scalpers and these companies are in on it together and the scalpers get some kickback for the companies so they can sell their products at a higher price
Why dont we all just seek out ebay listing and mass report them, like seriously why not search it up and just do it all of us?
Wait if someone gets a one card pack of Pokémon cards and gets a super expensive card and sells it and that's it is that scalping i never understood it?
The ps5 controller just works perfect and its half the price
Hang the scalpers!!
- @Spidymc 0
*ebay scalpers sign in*
Just Never buy from scalper
- @-Azona- 0
Solution is simple do not buy from scalpers. But idiots do and keep this going.
Sold out only in the US
I really hope no one is impatient enough or stupid enough to pay three times the cost for the same controller when steam already has the ability to connect to Xbox and Playstation and third-party controllers before this already came out
you are the embodiment of a wojack
Scalpers,...these guys did not even cap the order to one per account or person. They do it knowingly
Dont buy from scalpers no matter what, make them lose money
Scalpers have been doing this to controllers for years...
Hot tip. Any controller works for Pc
The worst part is that people still buy them.
This is my personal favorite track from this game, and you made a remix to it is absolutely superb, bravo❤
Where do these scalpers even get their money to buy all of it???
So it’s not just Nintendo that gets people to buy things to the point of being sold out
scalpers should be put down when you met one
We all need to do something about those scalpers and fast
I got lucky getting mine. I just kept spam clicking the buy button until it went through.
if the steam machine is 1k it would be dumb and is wrong even with bad ram prices the bom is like 600 so yea stop saying stupid stuff the steam machine is not goingn to be 1k
scalper should go to prison
Yeah I saw it yesterday, just by curiosity I watched on the store, and it was already sold out 🤣
- @ddlee84 0
The "scalpers are really going after controllers now" part made me laugh....Dude scalpers will go after anything that could be wanted or collectable....Controllers, consoles, Books, toys, concert tickets, pin badges...literally ANYTHING!I I've seen them crash the Disney Store website when a monthly Pin collection was on, I've seen them crash the Games Workshop website, when new books and boxsets are released....and even Smyths Toys here has had issues when certain things have been released. Of them the only one I have seen respond positively was Games Workshop, who right away set up a "pay to create list" where anyone who signed up and paid for the boxset that was scalped could have one even if it took 6 months....this limited the power of the scalpers to charge what they wanted on Ebay as the demand wasn't there. They also went through Ebay and reported people using their images of the products from their website as part of the listings. Not sure whether that helped as Ebay couldn't give a fig as long as they are making money, but Games workshop actually went after scalpers, which is rare from the normal "We have our money, what do we care" response from other companies.
I imagine steam the goats are just going to make more and more. Meaning scalpers wasted there money
Do not buy from scalpers and scalpers will cease to exist
Starting to wonder if the scalpers are secretly these companies “buying” their own stuff to sell it for more
Only 2k? You must not remember how depraved scalpers have gotten...
I got one, didn’t even think of getting more than one... it’s a controller, people will sell anything. Spammed continue for 30 minutes until it went through. Got lucky, I’ll take this over instant sellout in 5 seconds by bots.
Steam is the best
They should make it so it's 1 controller for each account, and only accounts that have made previous purchases on steam store
Wellllll! Guess I'll with the good old Xbox controller for a bit longer...
It should have been one per account
Based on everything I've seen in the short 31 years I've been on this Earth, I'm not surprised.
Probably should have set a limit on how many controllers you could get
Manufacturers need to find some way to put an end to scalpers.
Serious question...if you have a 4k gaming pc...why would you care about the steam machine ?
So playstation can figure out a fix for sclapers (albiet late) but steam can't impliment a fix PRIOR to release?
Pre orders only if your steam acount😂 is older than 6 years old
To be honest, I don’t really care for the steam machine. I just want the VR and then the controller later.
- @drpipps 0
It's very functional but at the end of the day it's just cheap plastic with bad bumpers and triggers and everything else about it is pretty mid too even though it has some cool features but there's still a lot of controller to buy instead if you want something premium.
Ive luckily been able to get one for myself but still... f### scalpers. Steam should have made an limit for now so that everyone can only buy one.
I thought they had like a gamer priority system when they sold the steam deck, I guess they didn't do it for Steam controllers
I feel like ANYONE who makes an eBay listing within that time as well as anyone eho actually buys more than 2 of something like this need to be banned from eBay
Bring brick-and-mortar stores
Released on my birthday btw 🎉🎉🎉
30 million years it’ll be available again lol
Remember when there was a limit on how many you could buy to give everyone a fair chance at getting one
I'm glad I managed to buy one... the stock went insanely quick.
I got one lucky 🎉
But, capitalism is supposed to be good, right? Right?!
Steam did everything to keep scalpers away from the Steam Deck. The Steam Machine will be fine.
Welcome to literally _every_ current hobby that has new releases of products or collectibles. Consoles, controllers, Warhammer minis, cards, you name it. If it's a hot product scalpers will buy it out.
- @Pota502 0
That was faster than... SCALPERS?!
- @Shaa-Gi 0
We could literally just make scalping illegal
This nuts scalpers ruin everything
Don't worry, scalpers may scalp but boy does my patience grow stronger
Ya’ll mad at scalpers? You should see the congressional lobby and US stock market lol
You still think it’s scalpers
Steam is new Rockstar Games 😂
These stupid scalpers should just be robbed of all the things they hog
Yet another item that scalpers will lose a phuck ton of money on 😂😂😂
i am grinding for this controller (not a scalper) i am hyped for this thing and they keep dropping it for only like 10 seconds then it takes about 30 mins for another 10 second window
Don’t buy them from any scalpers. Let’s them take the L. They only exist because of people being desperate
Idea, limit 1 Steam machine Per customer
GOD DAMMIT
I love you Valve but PLEASE, do something about the scalpers before the machine and the frame
I think that that anyone with a steam verified account should purchase a valve's hardware but limits one per item every 24 hours.
300%+ price increase from resellers on anything that is popular is, absolute insanity. Obviously the gov. is a problem but this also part of the problem with the economy right now.
Literally the dumbasses who buy from scalpers fault
- @Daniklc 0
Dude don't be mad at steam it's not their fault...
If your going to sell a controller or gaming system hell even cards. Don’t do it the day of. I feel like there should be a law put in saying if you do that you have to pay a fine that’s more than what you’re selling it for. It’s ok to sell them when the conditions are meet. A. You out grew it B. Do a garage sale (but what a few years) Or C donate them to people who are less fortunate than others
If only steam had a system to make sure accounts weren't bots and actual paying customers... Oh wait they do have that and it prevented deck scalping... They just decided to not use it this time for no reason.
EBay need to change their policy to stop this from happening
Did you just ask if scalpers were going after controllers now they literally punched little kids over Pokémon cards of course they’ll go after anything. They think they can rip you off on.
This should be illegal bro
scalpers will genuinely go after everything. I bet most of them don't even play video games
If only everybody unites and let the scalpers hold onto the controllers and just wait for more to go on regular stock. Its really the only way scalpers will stop doing it.
- @rtyfq 0
DO NOT BUY FROM SCALPERS DO NOT BUY FROM SCALPERS DO NOT BUY FROM SCALPERS if you think it's still worth considering, you're part of the problem
Steam machine fix. Make it so only the purchasing account can use it for the first year or you can return it to valve for 80% purchase price after the first month. So no third party reselling for the first year because basically no one will be willing to scrap their steam account for a cube
How scalping isn't against the law is beyond me at this point 🤦 but it is 2026 so yeah nvm nothing makes any sense anymore
- @DrJay-0 0
God I wish Valve sues these scalpers.
Remember that you can report scammers and scalpers to eBay and eBay absolutely does ban them.
There should be a law against selling an item for more than 10% above current msrp value
They had like what 100 units?
Steam could easily stop scalpers from buying them by only selling them to established active Steam accounts and limiting one per account. Making pre-orders avaliable would've helped as well. Sony should've done similar with the PS5 and only sold them to PS+ subscribers who had been subscribers for more than 6 months.
Don't give in guys. Don't buy anything from scalpers! At this ridiculous price! Give them a few months to eat all the losses. It's our fault that things have gotten this bad. Let's not make it worse
Never heard of a scalper but yeah that is messed up
Glad I set an alarm I guess... Even then I delayed 20-ish minute. Seems like I got lucky.
- @DaKidxx 0
Just use a ps5 or Xbox controller lol
No one actually wants this ugly and awkward thing. I don't know why it's selling out
At this point expect a scalper delay and upcharge on all newly released products no matter the type of product... Steam, Playstation, GTA, Pokemon TCG. Don't ever get surprised again. 😔
I wonder if there a way for steam to IP people and only allow people to buy 1 or 2 controllers per IP address
Scalpers go after everything. I mean bro, they even went after toilet paper in 2020….
Some scalpers are gonna get scalped.
I was fortunate enough to buy the controller on launch
Steam being steam, they need to come with an anti scalper system.
- @Zood94 0
Normalize wait patiently, and ban every scalper you find.. let the controller sit in their storage for months , even years, either steam gonna do something or the scalper sells it for normal price..
How is being a scalper legal , I don't understand.
Can we pre order it? 🤔
If I was selling stuff like this, I would enforce a registration with a steam account, then that steam account is bound to that console for 3 years (not removable). That way resellers can't srll, since you can't log into your own account, soft locking the console for scalpers.
Valve should cancel orders from potential scalpers and ban them.
What if, they're making a second batch for the customer especially one per customer. The first batch could be just profit off of scalpers.
- @tyggna 0
Make people buy it with their steam account and lock the hardware to that account for at least 18 months.
Lock 90% of initial stock to 1 per person limit, account at least a year old with normal use and locked to that account for 6 months.
Whats the hype for the controller? My ps4 controller be working mighty fine
i mean i feel like there's ways to stop scalpers if companies cared but they just don't. So it should be legal to dox scalpers and just set their houses on fire. They contribute nothing to society, in fact they detract from it so they should be fair game.
Dude, the Steamdeck has been sold out for 6 months now no?
Imagine if steam went after scalpers as hard as scammers
I still say that they put a global law that selling anything 100% above market price is illegal
I wonder if valve is going to do anything
Don't feed the scalpers, let them buy up as much stock as they can until they go broke with nothing to show for but a monument to their greed
Limit 2 per order
I live in Japan, but the controller just released today and it’s already sold out. I checked the official page—boom, gone—even though it hasn’t even been a full day.
The site 100% got Bought'ed. DO NOT BUY THE CONTROLLERS ON EBAY. let them sit on 20 controllers that can't be justified.
SCALPERSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
Its gonna be funny because this happened to the Steam Deck lol, Steam said "Just hold tight big guys we gotchu" and boom scalpers got stuck with extras they couldn't sell. Hopefully they do pre-orders for the Steam machine like they did with Steam deck
Dude, scalper are scalping Pop Tarts.
DONT PAY THEM! FOR FUCKS SAKE, DONT PAY FOR SCALPED PRODUCT! If you do, you fund their bullshit!!!
NO I JUST FOUND OUT TODAY!!!!!
Im sorry- $100 for a controller now?
- @Cuved13 0
My solution: Algorithm than can scan the inventory account in order to see which players play the most and which are the first one to deliver first, one controller by account in order to combat scalpers.
Valve should do the same thing they do for the hacker to the scalper, make them disappear from life
A novel i read many years ago had a very.... final.... solution regarding Scammers. Add scalpers to the list and let it happen...
Then wait.
- @captoke 0
Even $100 is stupid!!!!! I bought two wired Xbox controllers for 30 bucks. And they work just fine and they last about a year or so. So 15 bucks a year opposed to spending $100 and 6 months later getting stick drift
to be completely fair scalping is not going away anytime soon so these companies need to have bot protection as standard protocol for releases. Some bots are always going to get through but having absolutely 0 counter measures is just asking for it get scalped atp. There needs to be more done to protect consumers.
Just wait for it to restock and not support scalpers
Bruh it just came out and they scalped it already? 😭
Its not the scalpers its the people who buy from them enabling them to keep doing it for a quick buck. Never buy resell unless its less or same as retail. Let them goofys brick all scalping investments they need to learn the hard way (hopefully)
There is a very specific way of screwing over the scalpers. Simply Dont buy from them, and they'll have wasted thousands of dollars.
Same people buying sometimes the scalper them selves... Sometimes just that we'll off and not interested in sharing as well.... What a wonderful world.
How are they so quick with it? I think the best way to ruin scalpers is to not buy from them at all
It’s not just controllers Aprently scalpers are going after food too (this is with a Pokémon theme pop tart)
This is just embarassing
The only way to beat the scalpers is to flood the market. Meaning do not buy from em, and be patient.
I still won’t pay 100 for a controller I’ll wait for a sale
Aaaaaand it's gone
$3000*
If you buy from scalpers, you deserve to get taken advantage of. No sympathy.
I despise scalpers and grading companies; they are the reason that we can’t have nice things
In order to buy these products they should make it to where it can only be purchased with an existing steam account in good standing.
STOP BUYING FROM SCALPERS
Ban scalpers
I refreshed the payment screen (thats where you got stuck when you tried buying it) every 5 minutes multiple times for 45 minutes. i saw the delivery time go up from 3-5 days to 6-10 days. then out of pure luck i managed to buy one. 5 minutes later all sold out. its crazy
If steam encouraged people to buy from scalpers that would be hilarious. 😂😂😂
What's crazy is this could have been avoided by limiting amount purchased per person hell per IP for all I care its significantly harder to Scalp that way. Can't wait to never be able to purchase anything I want because companies are still dumb as a box of bricks
No, it's not. Bots learned to circumvent this ages ago.
@Cr1t1calMysticthe only people that can prevent it are government or companies and neither have reasons to care
@shrekkek9396 Great then I guess there is no solution and we should take no steps to prevent it. Yeah that would be the mindset of the human race right about now.
