Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

No difference in my hypothetical example. If I bought them all up and did what I just explained I see no problem. If I pulled a stunt like Pit Of Judgement well I'd beat myself up.

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

I just told you, it's not available for $31 cause someone bought them all out. It is now obtainable for $45 instead of the $69.99 price point. The value you are now able to get is 44% instead of 60%...

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

In my hypothetical example if I sold Astrotrain for $45 (a 44% discount from the retail price after taxes) I would post it for sale and possibly drop it off to a member as not everyone is able to...

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

In my view NO. RNSRobot would probably say suck balls cause you screwed him out of a DEAL... Reading his replies I feel he gets mad cause he doesn't get the DEAL instead of the item that was peg...

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

Yes I see this as an issue. Cutting off the supply on purpose for a brand new item I see as an issue. Cutting off supply when an item goes on sale 6 months down im not so sure is an issue for me...

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

So to my understanding of the above replies to my fake example, the point where one is a scalper is basically this

(You cleaned out the shelves for anybody else in the area for the express...

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

Ok but when they were 20% off of $69.99 (it would be $56) and widely available, no one was buying them. Now I come along and want to sell them at $45 and there is a problem with that? hmmmmmm

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

So let me get this straight so I can understand some views i've been reading here. I'll use an example with the current sale of Siege figures. (I didn't buy 5 I have 2 lol)

There are 5 Siege...

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

I checked out the set on Hasbro pulse and it was 1 per customer... I just find it a waste of energy to talk about these people. I just won't buy from them. And thinking about whether it is or isn't...

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

I have to agree with this. One can also feel like Hasbro is making their lines more difficult to obtain and thus to justify the f'ing price hikes??? ANyone feel that way!? Are Kingdom figures...

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

My point was some of you guys don't like it and complain about it but others ARE WILLING to pay the premium. My shopkins example is basically showing whether I put it at auction or buy it now, that's...

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

That's not how the world works. You're not entitled to get anything you want even for a toy. Look at Bandai and the GX71 Voltron. They had a set number to distribute and not everyone was able to get...

Re: Boardie Question - At what point are you a scalper?

Guy guy guy it's simple... The problem one should look at is in the mirror. Scalpers are technically not by definition a scalper if they don't sell the product. So the issue lies with the one who is...
