Can someone explain this too me?

So I want to get a propper Z77 board for my 3570K since my current Z68 board sucks balls and i found this on amazon...

Can someone tell me why amazon would sell that board that is maybe worth 100-150$ brand new for like 600$?

 

Also does anyone know where I could find this board for under 150?

It's that expensive because it's not produced anymore and people, such as yourself, want it.

is that seriously how that works because that's stupid.

I realize that now but i don't think amazon shoudl allow that if someone bought that board they would be getting totally ripped off.

1. Amazon doesnt have the capability to monitor every sale that takes place on their website and the legitimacy of such deals.

2. No one who knows anything about computers is going to buy it....

Still what? I have no pity for the person who is stupid enough to spend $600 on a product without doing research on it. Also they arent doing anything illegal so Amazon cant take it down.
