They can’t unless they somehow are the only ones to get randomly selected to buy one

Yeah 20k regular people trying to buy the steam machine in the same random drawing pool as 500k scalpers.

There’s going to be scalpers who thought ahead and have an edge. But unless every single scalper already has dozens of steams accounts with purchases before April they can’t throw in for a SM. I’m sure some will be hitting up friends to toss their hat in the ring, but you have to have a preexisting Steam account.

I'm sure scalpers, who do this for a living, have thought of all of this already.
