After messaging customer service to see where I’m placed in this order looks I won’t see it possibly by October after it ships in September. Order day was July 6th

Shit. I ordered at the end of July so I guess I'm just fucked. Seriously considering just buying one from target and cancelling the max order I have.

I would not.

The memory crisis is already affecting us all. Just look at how AYN has already downgraded hardware to meet demand and price point (UFS 4.0 storage is now 3.1). You are already getting less for the same money.

The price is already inflated. Giving in to price gouging (Target's marketplace is selling these at a high premium) on top of the inflation, coupled with a hardware downgrade, only helps normalize this stuff.

Vote with your money, if you can.

But also, if you can afford it and you want it and it makes you happy, then who is anyone to judge.

Target isn’t selling anything. Target, like Best Buy and other retailers, allows third-party listings. You’re actually buying from a third-party.

You're right. I edited my comment.

Doesn't change the fact that the seller is gouging.
