[QUOTE="vicious, post: 2036890, member: 3937"] Personally, I believe that there are people out there doing more than capitalizing, and I highly doubt any are taking a loss. When you paid $120 for something and are turning around and trying to sell it for $500 that's profit, not loss. Now, if you bought it for $500 and are trying to sell it for $500 then good on ya. The problem I'm seeing is that the prices at reputable shops and MSRP don't reflect such a spike. Sure, there's panic buying that's causing supply issues, and there's a possibility of a ban, but does that excuse people from being moral? I don't think so. I've got a mental list of people and places I won't be doing business with in the future due to these actions. I won't "flag" them or berate them. I'll simply refuse to give them any of my business. Maybe this is because I don't [b]need[/b] anything. I have advised friends of mine to not buy at exorbitant prices, and given them a list of places I would steer clear of. I'm of the mind that it's their right to sell at whatever price they want to, and my right to not buy it. [/QUOTE]
