John Carmack proposes GPU and console auctions to beat scalpers - The Verge

This type of auction system could be used to beat scalpers, who wouldn’t be willing to pay inflated prices on highly prized new products.

Even older graphics cards are sold out right now, and resale value on eBay is climbing.

An auction system may cut out the scalpers who try to profit off this supply and demand cycle, but unless every manufacturer participates then it’s unlikely to have a significant impact.

All of the latest AMD and Nvidia GPUs can still be found at inflated prices on eBay, and additional taxes on graphics cards imported from China have also bumped up the prices in the US.
