The real victim here are those people who bought more than one unit, thinking they could sell for a profit. Now how are they going to do that? Those poor folks are screwed.Yes fractal can do whatever they want with their products and charge whatever they like, but lets not lie to all the loyal customers and act like this had anything to do with other people scalping units. People are going to scalp and gouge prices anyway once these $3500 units are sold out and on back order again. There were axe fx IIs selling for $5000-$6000 YEARS after it came out so we all know this does nothing to deter it. People can justify it any way they like, the reality is that this creates a terrible customer perception and makes the company seem shady.
But seriously, the only people I've seen whining about this are trolls who aren't even on the waitlist. Everybody thinks they can do better and treat their customers better than Fractal. If you saw someone list your new baby on Ebay or Reverb for $1000 more than they paid less than a week in, how would you feel about it?
