@0xZogG We see lots of Approved Resellers kitting our boards as it's one of the very few ways we can deter scalpers from buying up stock.

@Raspberry_Pi so basically adding unneeded parts priced X4 than board and thus leveling it to price that scalpers are selling for is the solution against them? I mean how scalpers selling kits on Amazon/ebay/ali for 100$ when everyone is out of stock is THAT DIFFERENT from 75$ (+shipping) that available for few days only?P.S.You know that when you buy online you enter address and name and you can as any other site limit it to 1 item per customer a month based on those uniq identifiers.

@Raspberry_Pi Yes what?Your officials resellers selling same way as scalpers yes?15$ board but it would cost 75$ coz you HAVE to buy few OVERPRICED plastics and cables you do not need to?Just release it then as 50$ board and resolve the availability in stock instead as no one can buy for 15$ or even 35$ anyway, as of right now you sending to same scalpers, just calling them "official" ones 🤦🏽♂️Regular guy still can't get board.
