Steam Machine Reservations Hit by Scalpers Selling at Double Price on eBay

Valve's highly anticipated Steam Machine reservations have been marred by scalpers selling reservations on eBay at more than double the retail price. Despite Valve's randomized system aimed at fairness, scalpers have managed to secure and resale reservations, with mark-ups reaching as high as $1,550. This development leaves many genuine buyers in a waitlist limbo, unsure when they'll get their chance to purchase at the standard price.
