price = demand ÷ supply
hetzner = poop
Yes I noticed this aswell. I got a i9 2x1tb nvme 128 gig ram before christmas for a bit under 60€. Now they start at 80-90€. As @dfroe said its probably low stock and high demand for specific lines.
So Hetzner is popular
I heard a rumor they may be scaling back servers in Europe due to inflation (parts and wages) and power costs. Possibly un-racking servers, and focusing more on cloud (VPS) and overseas (NA and possibly APAC).
Also noticed how auction servers are in short supply recently, and quite more expensive than their announced 10% price hike would suggest (more like 20-40%, depending on model). It's also noticeable that several models get all sold out, but occassionaly they replenish the supply, at an even higher prices. As if they try to produce shortage and thus keep higher prices?
Dunno, if they're really unracking them, that makes sense only if they plan to ship them overseas (to USA). They already removed the oldest and most power hungry models from the auction. Remains to be seen where this all leads, time will tell...
Yeah I have a now rare/extinct SX133 (160TB, W-2245 version) which i would most likely have dropped by now if they were still floating around in the auction
TBH I was surprised yesterday when I checked the auctions. Prices seem a lot higher than a while a go
What's the difference between hetzner dedis and auctions? New and old?
something like that
Hetzner = yes!
