Are you buying anything now to try and weather the storm? I have a laptop from 2020 that I’ve been thinking of replacing before prices get too out of hand. Luckily I bought my gaming consoles before all of this. If you priced a laptop or tablet this summer, you noticed. In June, Apple raised the price of nearly every Mac and iPad it sells. The cheapest iPad went from $349 to $449 overnight. The MacBook Air went from $1,099 to $1,299. The hardware stayed the same, but the prices didn’t. It isn’t just Apple. The PlayStation 5 costs $100 more than it did in March. Xbox prices went up $100 to $150 this past Saturday. Nintendo is raising the Switch 2 to $499.99 on September 1. Dell, HP, and other laptop makers have raised prices too. Every major device maker is moving in the same direction. Most of them name the same cause. submitted by /u/FreshFromCache
