On a business standpoint, Amazon probably should have given a warning, canceled the duplicates of the games he was buying, and band if he ever did it again. But on a practical standpoint, screw this guy. Why does he even need multiple copies of a game? I feel sorry for his family he screwed over. I wonder if they could ever re-register to Amazon. It pisses me off when I cant find something, such as issue 285 of Nintendo Power and then I see THIS and THIS on eBay. I remember a lot of that going on with the Wii when it was first released and in short supply. |

I see Amazons point but I do this a lot also. Not in huge bulk but ill re buy something i have just to resell for a profit. I honestly dont think its such a bug deal. Unless you go all crazy like the NI NU Kuni guy. Not sure on spelling sorry. |

I've bought games on Amazon for the intention of re-selling for profit. Though that only accounts for maybe 2% of my total transactions. People that buy EVERY copy of something just to re-sell it at a higher price are definitely despicable. |

I think it is just crappy to buy a extra copy of a new game in short supply just to resell it. It's a real slap in the face to anyone who just wants to play the game that you force them to pay extra. Now if you find a copy of Mario Kart 64 at a tag sale for $2 and sell it for $30, that's ok, but to walk into a store and buy 20 copies of the hottest new game and go home and mark them up $30 is just shitty. But with buying things on Amazon and reselling them, how do you do that without gouging the price? Things over there tend to be market value, with the occasional odd one out. With that said, I remember someone on here ranting on a copy of Zelda Collection for GC he sold. He marked it down to be nice, so someone can enjoy it, and got pissed when he saw the same copy resold for more. Also what happened with NI NU Kun? |
