So every hardware launch, scalpers get wild and basically "buy" 10s, and sometimes dozens of systems to scalp. What can actually be done about them? We talk about them in every launch, and yet nothing is done.
So how can we combat it?
I think the easiest thing to do perhaps is to simply not allow you to return the hardware. Or charge a small fee for returned hardware. So although a person with one or two Switches, or PS5s or whatever, may only have to pay a small fee of say 10 dollars or 20, someone who bought 20 with the intent to scalp them, would have to pay far more.
Or does the solution lie with sites like Ebay enforcing some kind of rule?
Whats your suggestion Gaf? Or should we just not worry about it at all and simply accept it?
