As expected, the result was, ironically, an overglutted aftermarket.

Exactly.
The free market system still works in this case, and it has been interesting watching it do so.
It is hilarious thinking back to some of the $3000.00 "buy it now" auctions that I remember seeing! And people who pictured themselves with their new PS3, thinking that they had just won the lottery!
