It’s not about how many they can manufacture, it’s about how many they actually sell to consumers. I have given up trying to buy them. It’s just not worth the hassle.
Supply and demand? If you flood the market with stock, everyone can sell them and out bid each other until it’s as cheap as it can get while still turning a profit. That’s competition.
The fact that there isn’t enough stock is why it’s so easy to price gouge…

Just checked for my country, and 4 out of 5 places had them in stock. Might be a local problem?
The issue isn’t the stock, it’s the price gouging.
The registered retailers are selling them at normal cost I think? Or I got ripped off and didn’t notice 🤔

So what is the price supposed to be? I’m seeing ~90€ for the 8gb variant
£79 is official RPi5 8GB price in the UK. So €90 sounds correct.

I bought an old thinkcentre for $50 on ebay that trounces the Pi’s performance.
Reduce, REUSE, recycle.
Can you attach any RPi HATS to it? No? Not an alternative then.
