Limited supply leading to the same stock being sold at over 300% of the MSRP five years ago. The demand is definitely there. The supply and pricing is the issue, not a lack of interested buyers.
"Market" my ass.

thats just because I can't afford it; all modern games require SSDs to even start nowadays.
