Your Kindle just became the latest casualty of the RAM crisis — Amazon is hiking the prices of its e-readers, and users are sharing ways to get them for cheaper

Amazon has raised the prices of its top-selling gadgets, including popular Kindle models, due to soaring costs in memory and storage components. The price hikes are not limited to Amazon's devices, as Apple, Spotify, and YouTube Premium have also increased their rates recently. In response to these price adjustments, users have turned to third-party discount sites like Unclaimed Baggage and Woot to acquire Kindle e-readers at lower prices.

Unclaimed Baggage is a retailer that sells devices recovered from lost airline luggage, offering some Kindle Scribe models at half the new Amazon price. Additionally, Reddit users have recommended checking Facebook Marketplace for potential deals on gadgets.
