Original: Ouch: The Raspberry Pi 5 just hit an eye-watering $385 https:// lemmy.zip/post/74461261

The Raspberry Pi 5, a single-board computer long prized for its affordability, is reportedly selling for as much as $385, far above its usual retail price of around $60-$80. The steep figure is likely due to third-party resellers or inflated kit listings, and tech enthusiasts are voicing frustration at how expensive the once-budget device has become.

Why now: People are reacting to the dramatic price inflation of a device famous for being cheap.
