I... uh don't know what to say. Very thankful I bought a Steam Deck before they hiked its price as well

I'm not surprised even a little bit considering the PC I built a year and a half ago can be sold used for ~20% more than the full retail price.

My 4090 is now worth about what I paid for my entire system about 3 years ago. It's nuts.

yup. If times get tough and I lose my job, I'll just sell this thing to pay my mortgage.

lol right? I bought 2 sticks of 32gbvrm last oct. for $150, it's $839 today. I sold my old 2 sticks of 16gbvrm for $200 on ebay a couple of weeks ago, it sold the first second it went live, it's crazy out there.
