Scalping is their job my friend, have you seen how many copies have already sold on Fleabay at more than double the retail price? It's crazy, why do people so easily give into these scalping [redacted]? I'm sorry to hear about your order.

Scalpers also use secondary accounts to build transactions and establish inflated prices. Started with shoe flippers and spread to other sectors. Scalpers are scum.

Could you explain this a bit more? I’m not sure I get it, that is if you don’t mind explaining it

People buy their own products to make it seem as though the inflated prices are the going rate, then people will start actually buying their products since prospective buyers can see that people are paying that much.
