It is their fault. Do you know why it's their fault? The reason it's their fault is because they are the ones who raised the prices. I didn't raise the price. I didn't touch the price. I simply bought the product. Yes, they obviously will sell for higher because they want more money. That's their motive. They chose on their own free will, motivated by money to charge more. That's their decision. I don't blame the miners for other people's decisions.
It is not incumbent upon any demographic of purchasers to base their quantity of choice on what other people are willing to pay for remaining stock. It is now our job to reduce or quantity of purchase so you can don't have to pay 3X MSRP to retire your 1060. To be honest, you don't have to pay anything. We as miners are not forcing you to pay 3X MSRP for a GPU. You are welcome to continue running your 1060. It is a free market, that works on a first come first serve basis. Yes, I know that as a result of the supply and demand principle, sellers will raise their price, motivated by the prospect of making more money. But that is ultimately their choice. I didn't choose that. They are not obligated to raise their prices. They do so by choice.
Miners are not obligated to leave stock on the shelf to protect you against the free will or sellers raising their price. We do not owe you anything. You are not entitled to a certain price. This is a free market. You all sound off like we didn't fulfill our obligations of leaving stock on the shelf for you. Well let me tell you something there champ, it's first come first served. You could have purchased before we did.
It is our right to purchase a product with our own money, just as it is yours. Gamers are crying that miners are at fault for high GPU prices, like we didn't fulfill our obligation of keeping supply high to appease your budget. Sorry buddy, that's not how it works. We didn't raise the prices. The sellers did, motivated by money
