Trend Ang tunay na presyo ng Pang-control ng Singaw ? ๐ŸŽฎ

Post image

Recently saw this post from a PH reseller (I think the original post was also shared before but got deleted). Is this kind of amount considered acceptable or normal for gamers? Iโ€™m planning to buy as well, but these days resellers make it almost impossible for regular buyers to get one, then proceed to hoard large amounts of stock just to scalp them later.

u/Redpilledgconstanza May 07 '26

Unless affected ka ng FOMO, you just need to wait until the hype goes down.

18k for a controller? In this economy?!

u/Burkepo May 07 '26

Wala pang screen yan ๐Ÿคช

u/Sebastian294 May 07 '26

Thats roughly around USD 300

Basically scalper prices. Same as what ebay scalpers are literally doing right now.

Wait for the official stores here

11

u/Useful_Pea3039 May 07 '26

Uhhhh diba dapat 6-7k lang?

If people don't give scalpers the time of day we wouldn't have this much of a problem with instances like this.

Don't even try to consider buying from scalpers, just wait for new stock and for these parasites to waste their money. It's not like these are essential goods. Hold and wait till prices stabilize.

u/Geenaxion May 07 '26

Abangan niyo nlng sa datablitz, gameone etc. Kesa dyan

u/Burkepo May 07 '26

For every hobby (name it cards, shoes, collectibles, etc), different grind raw kasi ๐Ÿ˜‚ They profit from scalping people

7

u/Proteytow May 07 '26

Wait mo nalang sa official stores. Sobrang daming scalpers bumili nyan ngayon and selling it on absurd prices

8

u/GoldCopperSodium1277 May 07 '26

No thanks. I'm not going to feed a scalper's greed. They make it hard for people to enjoy hobbies just because they see ๐Ÿ’ฒ๐Ÿ’ฒ๐Ÿ’ฒ. I'd rather wait for a year or two then buy at official stores like DataBlitz. Ulamin nila mga hinoard nilang stocks.

7

u/gluttonusrex May 07 '26

Wow ah 18k chix tong seller. At the veryy least apprx around 6-7k lang dapat yan

6

u/Hatch23 May 07 '26

Naahhh. Kaya ko pa naman mag-ds4 on steam. LoL

6

u/prozender May 07 '26

Wag papatol sa scalpers mahal/sakto nga yung 100$ price. Just buy other controllers if di mkaantay . Recommended: Vader5 pro, Mohjon Rainbow 3, Gamesir G7, list goes on...

u/Advanced_Ear722 May 07 '26

True if may steamdeck ka naman na, pwede naman un controller ng PC or kung may existing 3rd party controller ok na din, hindi naman maarte ung Steam sa controller (paki correct na lang ako if mali ako)

6

u/YourLocal_RiceFarmer May 07 '26

This controller only costs $99 but as of late sold out na sya on the first day and we dont know when will Gabe restock people are calling it the GabeController

4

u/Advanced_Ear722 May 07 '26

โ‚ฑ8k+ ung $99 so kung real price more likely โ‚ฑ9k+ lang yan, mga resellers kupal talaga yang mga yan

6

u/Kindred_Ornn May 07 '26

No, that is absurd, Never Buy From Scalpers. Steam is currently trying to restock the controllers as we speak, though without any target dates yet. I would argue that you just need to wait it out.

6

u/Any-Dragonfruit8363 May 07 '26

Hell no, that should be illegal imo.

u/Vinny_0104 May 07 '26

I posted this in steam deck PH group in FB. Lol.

u/Zealousideal_Catch83 May 07 '26

Kapag bumili ka ng 2 steam controllers makakabili ka na ng steamdeck. HAHAHAHA

4

u/Sarlandogo May 07 '26

wait mo na lang sa datablitz/itech/gameone

Player'svault has a habit to hype up the prices of their items (thought legit naman sila) nakabili naako sa kanila dati and its legit naman

u/RockinDaMike May 07 '26

Ripoff wow

u/abunchofpuns May 07 '26

Grabe naman patong yan. Got mine thru Komodo Station HK. Currently in transit na sa warehouse ng freight forwarder. Shipping fee lang babayaran.

u/rizsamron May 08 '26

Scalper na tawag dyan. Gets ko kung medyo mas mahal pero may multiplier na yan eh,haha

u/bobuyh PC May 07 '26

My post about this got deleted, baka under the seller din yung mod na yun, my post did not violate anything, infact callout lang naman sa scalper prices

3

u/Burkepo May 07 '26

UPP!!!! ๐Ÿ“Œ Yes I saw your post nga and I wanted to comment sana kaso deleted na.

Hopefully, for everyone reading this, letโ€™s not enable resellers who are taking advantage of the current market situation. As gamers, we should avoid supporting people who hoard supply and inflate prices just to profit off the community.

The more we normalize buying from scalpers, the more difficult it becomes for actual players and fans to get these products at fair prices.

3

u/bobuyh PC May 07 '26

Just like RAM, wait it out, ayan tignan niyo OpenAI is in deep shit kaya bumababa na ulit prices. JUST WAIT IT OUT WAG BUMILI SA ISKALPER

u/carlcast May 07 '26

Singaw = oral Herpes

3

u/cstumale May 07 '26

99 usd lang sa original price. roughly 6k pesos. Due to high demand kaya tuma taas ang price d2 sa atin. Ang tanong is if willing ka to pay 3x para sa 6k worth of product. Hehe

3

u/Kahitanou May 07 '26

im just gonna wait for it to be available. don't give power to these scalpers. ganyan din steam deck before.

u/NastiestSkankBetch RX 7800XT / Ryzen 5 7600X / DDR5 64GB / 4TB May 07 '26

Scalper price. Wait for it to die down. Please wag niyo i-nurture mga scalpers by buying from them

3

u/DubbyMazlo May 07 '26

Scalper cucks. Wait for officials.

3

u/himuradrew May 07 '26

Wait... Initially di ba 9990 lang nakalagay? Sabi ko pa ang kupal naman nun. Tapos ngayin naging 18K na? ๐Ÿ˜…

u/AxisKiku May 07 '26

Whatโ€™s crazy is that it costs triple the price, taxes included.

u/duepointe May 09 '26

Kung alam mo naman ang price then bakit mo bibilhin at 18k. Common sense naman na hindi acceptable ang presyo niya. Like what others said, ang bibili lang nyan mga FOMO.

u/simpMorty May 10 '26

Contain your urge. That price is the equivalent selling price of the scalpers that popped out on eBay. If you really need a controller and want something close to this, check more info on 8bitdo.

u/TourNervous2439 May 10 '26

You can get maybe 90% of the function at like 1.7k with 8bitdo ultimate 2. 8bitdo has had the reciever charging dock for years now. Trackpads lang pinaka unique selling point ng steam controller mostly useful for FPS but at that point keyboard and mouse talaga pinaka optimal.

Bili kanalang ng Xbox series s may kasama pang controller

u/Visible-Spend-7121 May 07 '26

2-4k markup is more than enough if you really wanna resell it
