Steam Machine Reservations Rally on eBay as Scalpers Price Up to $2.9K
TL;DR
Scalpers are already listing Steam Machine reservations on eBay for $2,700–$2,899, roughly 2–2.5x Valve's official price, before the June 29, 2026 ship date. The 2 TB versions are being sold around $1,349–$1,400, and some buyers have paid these inflated sums. With limited supply, the resale market is thriving, though building a high-end PC (~$2,000) offers markedly better performance.
