Waitwhat?!
My reaction exactly. Under no circumstances should that be a serious statement. And if the author meant it to be, then said author is a douchebag.
i meant what i said. if you want to call me a douchebag, then by all means do so.
as the old saying goes, a fool and his money are soon parted, and any moron who shells out scalper prices when they can wait for a restock at retail (or even a clearance sale!), well i think i would deserve their money.
theres honor among collectors, and theres common business sense, and i dont think i have violated that honor.

The issue is not about fools buying from scalpers --it's about sympathizing with scalpers/condoning the practice. This is why you're being called a db -let's make that clear.

I'm very serious. And if you're willing to judge my character on ONE comment what does that say about you?
Do I condone it? No. Do I endorse it? No. Do I give a toss what someone sells a plastic toy for? Absoloutely not. Know why? Because it's not hurting anyone, it's not bringing about the end of the world. No one is going to die or come to harm from it.
Besides, I said "Who says it's wrong?". Might want to read posts more clearly.

Better answer. Your original statement came off as if you supported scalping.
deathy - this an online exclusive, so the gas/time/footwork argument doesn't apply. $250?? This is an over 400% increase in price. Blatant scalping. Plain and simple. These POS continue to stay in business b/c of the foolish, impatient people with deep pockets. STOP FEEDING the SCALPERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
also, I did not call Astro a db

There is always going to be those out there who will try to make a buck on anything. It's up to us not to let them take away the real meaning behind why we enjoy this hobby....peace out

cyberseven is right
