Let me just say this, and I know this may not be helpful to you with your frustration, but I totally understand where you're coming from. Let me explain. Besides being a GI Joe fan, I'm also a Godzilla fan. Back in the 80s and 90s, I was a kid growing up loving the old Godzilla movies and not having any toys at all because back then Godzilla toys were no where to be found, and as a kid this was so frustrating and stressful. The only place you could actually find Godzilla toys were at comic stores in bigger cities like San Francisco, and even there they were insanely expensive because they were imports from Japan. My parents were able to buy a couple of them, but that was about it.
So fast forward 30 years later, Godzilla toys are everywhere, but GI Joe classified figures are not. I'm actually fortunate enough that I was able to get most of the figures I wanted, but I also had a very frustrating time finding Baroness as well, and I refuse to give money to scalpers no matter how badly I want the figure.
All I can say is that if you love GI Joe, be patient and don't give up. I think Hasbro really messed up with getting GI Joe into our hands but I believe that they are learning from their mistakes. They're seeing the overwhelming demand for GI Joe so I'm sure in the future (and these things take time) they will produce enough figures for everyone.
