NZXT's predatory anti-consumer scam investigated: youtube.com/watch?v=0pomC1Cf…

We just received an NZXT email marketing blast stating its RTX 4090 computer has been restocked. They are once again lying about their sales and pricing, stating it is on "Black Friday Sale," except it has increased in price from this "sale." Now twice in just days. The latest restock and price change seemingly arrived in conjunction with our video. The system was $3,949 for a "Player Three Prime" just days ago. That Player Three Prime, in-place, had its spec and price changed, down to a 4080 Super while deceptively keeping the same model name. In other words, they duplicated a model, worsened the original while keeping its name, and then applied a new, higher price to the duplicate while renaming it. They created a new Player 4090, which has the same core specs as the Player Three Prime used to have, and increased its price to $3,999 while stating it is "on sale." As of minutes ago, we saw that they have now adjusted its price up again, now to $4,099, while also still saying it is on "Black Friday Sale," despite the price increasing $150 in just days. As a reminder, NZXT also increased the price of some of its subscription PCs by $10/mo while also claiming to offer a "Black Friday Sale" with it, which included a "free" rental mousepad. You can find our video on the channel for more discussion on this; however, with actions like this, it appears that NZXT is in overtime proving our points.
