It's called doing business. I.e. Buy low, sell high. Far from absurd.

^^ it's a POV, one i consider EXTREMELY wrong with today's society, but that's just me.
so, what's the problem with a mer label?
the truth should NEVER hurt when there's fiscal prosperity to be had.
wow!
if i could make money on some levels as those 'humans' (loosely used word) without the empathy required in order live in so-called society and actually go to sleep (become vunerable) on the same street as those i'm fleecing, like i could GAFF what folks thought, or even said.
got money, got a nice slutty girl, sex on tap, life goes on.
...
dead serious, grow a thick skin, capitalism is a dual-edged blade, and it comes with the territory folks get fucked over, success at the cost of others, there has to be LOSS in that POS system.
...
what's the worst kind of label?
what does it even matter when you win, or won the rat-race backstabbing game? ;D

Superchop:
In the same scope...just last year I was buying games for the dreamcast...hoping to get a full NA set over time. Even scooped up a couple "pricey" games. Now when I look, games have doubled in price! My dream of a full na set is slowly fading lol

Its a bit disheartening to see this hobby get to be so popular and over run by resellers to make a quick buck.

Not that I mind paying market value for what I like but when everyone and their mother wants over market it, I feel, helps encourage every one else inflate their prices

I also think it's more and more people getting into the hobby, More people are being born every year.

I can kinda understand SMW being $20, as everyone who wants a SNES wants that game.
Mario/ Duck Hunt is pushing $10.

I wish I bought more games back when I started in 2009-2010, though honestly I kinda fell out of getting games as I don't have the time to play the ones I got recently.

I started a list of games I'm looking to get, ignoring games over $50

I once wanted a complete Black Box set, that ain't happening.

Epitomalist:
I have a list of SNES games that I want now that I had when I was younger. The 4 I want the most are Mega Man X2 and X3, Chrono Trigger and Turtles in Time. Well we all know what those go for now and I'm just looking for cart only.
