TREE NEWS reports: Graphics card prices in Shenzhen’s Huaqiangbei electronics market have risen sharply again, with some popular models up more than 1,000 yuan in a week and some high-end models quoted above 50,000 yuan, agents said on October 27. Prices are changing as often as twice a day, and second-hand card prices have risen in tandem, but merchants say the cards are not selling.
Graphics card prices in Huaqiangbei jump over 1,000 yuan in a week but sales stall
The divergence between rising quotes and stalled sales is the real signal here: Huaqiangbei pricing is being driven by supply-side scarcity and speculative restocking rather than end demand, and twice-daily repricing suggests merchants are chasing a moving market they cannot clear. Second-hand prices rising alongside new stock points to a broad inventory squeeze rather than a single hot model. The open question is whether this is genuine scarcity or a short squeeze that unwinds once buying stays absent — watch whether quotes keep climbing while volumes stay flat.
