This was the absolute worst when the Zero first came out. The supposed $5 board was impossible to buy on its own, only with HDMI adapters a (non-official) power supply, cheap off-brand SD card and (non-official) case which caused the price to go up to like $40.

that's funny because the Pi Zero was given away with a magazine subscription https://www.raspberrypi.org/magpi/issues/40/ Almost cheap enough to come at the bottom of a Crackerjack box.

Can't blame resellers for reselling.

But you can blame the greedy for being greedy and wrecking good things. When are we going to get around to making things better ? Might as well start with these fools.
