I have bought close to high end in the past (GTX9800), the products just kept climbing in price and my wager didn't! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But I understand that's not a company concern. Keep dreaming inside your bubble that there are no inflated prices: they'll keep climbing because people don't care. If they actively combated scalpers, it would ease a bit. But the only solution is having good availability from the start, so you don't give chance for scalping to even be profitable.
