На рынке удивительная ситуация с этим кризисом чипов: у людей есть деньги и желание купить товар, а у компаний есть производство и желание продать. Но товар не могут сделать и поставить. Кстати, что странно, компании даже в условиях дефицита не повышают официальную цену, хотя именно так капитализм должен был бы в норме решать эту проблему. В итоге, мы получаем паразитическую сторону капитализма — появляются перекупщики, которые делают наценку 50-100% и даже более.
С автомобилями (да, новые автомобили тоже внезапно в кризисе) такая перепродажа, вероятно, не очень прокатывает. Но приставки и видеокарты попали под ситуацию очень заметно. В идеале и производителям и легальным магазинам нужно продать товар по возможности сразу целевому пользователю. Как это сделать? Магазины в России в конце прошлого года попробовали анализировать аккаунты покупателей и вручную звонить людям, попавшим под некий профиль (например, если человек купил много геймерских товаров), предлагая им PlayStation 5. Кажется, сработало это не очень хорошо. Во-первых, многие, кто очень хочет, так и остались без приставки. Люди буквально днями и неделями мониторят все возможные сайты в надежде поймать заветную «плойку». Иногда удается, но чаще нет. Во-вторых, магазины всё равно попадают на тех, кто в итоге продаст товар с наценкой. Например, два разных магазина могут продать одному и тому же человеку. Или — так было в моём случае — магазин предложил мне только дисковую версию, я её купил и продал ровно так, чтобы компенсировать наценку на бездисковую, которую на самом деле хотел. Впрочем, я купил бездисковую не у таких потерявших берега перекупщиков, какие обитают в России, а за границей, и наценка была небольшая относительно состояния рынка.
И вот здесь привязка устройств к человеку по каким-нибудь идентификационным данным на самом деле могла бы сыграть в плюс. В магазине, кстати, приставку продали только при личной явке и только при предъявлении паспорта, и это после их же звонка с предложением. Но можно пойти дальше: прямо при покупке привязывать аккаунт к конкретной персоне, и так, чтобы его нельзя было отвязать, например, в течение года. Это конечно упрощённая и идеализированная модель, но суть ясна: сделать скорую перепродажу невыгодной или даже невозможной.
Год назад казалось, что через год то уж точно приставки для всех будут. Я поэтому тогда и не купил. А в действительности через год стало только сложнее достать. Посмотрим, что будет ещё через год.

🚨 Zionist soldiers are documented hovering over a child they shot in Al-Aroub camp, #AlKhalil after they obstructed medical crews from reaching him.
Two other children have also been wounded by zionist bullets in the camp.
24-year-old prisoner Afnan Abu Hussein was released on a financial bail of 5,000 shekels on October 14 after being arrested the day prior from her home in the town of Bani Naim, #AlKhalil.
Afnan, who is in her ninth month of pregnancy (with a scheduled caesarean section on 16/10) and is a mother to a two-year-old child was beaten by the IOF in her home before they detained her. They abducted her before she was able to wear her hijab. She described the terrible conditions she experienced during her detention:
"They provoked me in the worst ways; it was psychological torture for me. They filmed me on TikTok while I was tied with shackles to the bed, and they danced around me. I would ask for a cup of water, after two days of no eating or drinking, and they would throw it in front of me; as a result, I became dehydrated and the water dried up for the baby. They didn't give me any medical treatment."
During her detention, the IOF also forced her to sign a paper which says she is responsible in the case of the death of her baby because she refused to give birth in an occupation hospital.
"Between us and them are mountains of corpses, rivers of hatred, blood, and blood, and blood, wailing, and a long revenge."
The ancient words repeated by our leaders, the Lion of the Den Mishal Al-Baghdadi and NidalKhazem, are present at the event honoring the second anniversary of martyr Nizar Banat's assassination by the traitorous Palestinian Authority in #AlKhalil.
Beyond the Envelope: Towards Al-Quds:
Under the cover and support of rocket fire, the resistance began a new and large incursion by land, air, and sea into occupied Palestine about three hours ago:
- Paratroopers have reportedly landed in "Netivot."
- Commandos of the resistance's naval units have set foot in IOF naval bases near occupied Asqalan and are engaged in fierce clashes.
- A large number of fighters stormed settlements with vehicles, taking over Route 232 and making their way deeper and deeper into the occupied interior.
Meanwhile, shooting operations and confrontations do not stop in the West Bank. Hezbollah has targeted IOF posts in occupied Shebaa Farms. An operation in Alexandria, Egypt led to the killing two zionists. One million settlers are leaving the entity, and thousands are fleeing settlements.
The temporary entity has declared a state of war. Over 100 settlers have been captured in Gaza, yet the IOF continues to indiscriminately bomb the Strip. At least 700 settlers have been killed, as many in two days as in three years of the Second Intifada.
Liberating land in real time, the resistance is closing in on the West Bank, at the door of "Kiryat Arba" in #AlKhalil. The resistance is a mere 10 kilometers away from splitting the zionist entity in two.
Free our Lions!
Despite the Palestinian Authority courts deciding to release him, the traitorous Palestinian Authority continues to kidnap the wanted resistance fighter, a Lion of the Den and Al-Qassam Brigades member, Musab Shtayyeh. Musab has been tortured and held in solitary confinement by the PA since the moment of his arrest. Musab was a strong link between Gaza and Nablus; the PA criminalizes his righteous resistance for the sake of the people they claim to represent because they work hand-in-hand with the zionist enemy.
The wanted resistance fighter and Al-Qassam Brigades member Musa Attallah has been kidnapped by the "Authority" for 135 days today.
The PA's tyranny knows no bounds, as it has also kidnapped one of its own officers, Emad Odeh. He has been held for 211 days as of today, simply for opening fire against a colonial settler as he was being attacked by them. Emad went on hunger strike in April.
The traitorous PA attacks Palestinians, doing the bidding of the zionist enemy. In the last few weeks, they have used undercover forces to arrest student activists and freed prisoners, to burn their cars, and open fire on the families of martyrs and prisoners. Following a large campaign of arrests in #AlKhalil, a number of students have been held for over a week. Two prisoners kidnapped by the PA are on their 9th day of hunger strike: Ismail Abu Shkeidem and Abdullah Al-Sous. Just a few days ago, its forces opened fire on mourners of resistance leader and martyr Khader Adnan, a figure that they repeatedly attacked in his life.
The list of similar cases goes on... Khader Adnan, Basil Al-Araj, Nizar Banat, Ahmed Sa'adat. The PA is simply a servant of zionism, and in the words of Basil, it "participates in our annihilation."
🚨 The IOF arrested 6 children during a raid on the town of Beit Ummar, north of #AlKhalil, according to local sources.
Separately, the Palestine Red Crescent Society reported that medical teams are treating a 21-year-old man who sustained gunshot wounds to the thigh and back from "israeli" occupation forces fire in Birzeit, north of #Ramallah.
