CT, you are exercising your rights and your freedoms. I respect that. I just don't respect how you are choosing to do this for money knowing that it upsets a lot of people like me who have to go through extreme measures just to get one at the price that the vendors list it for. Some people in this world choose to not exercise certain rights which result in upsetting a lot of other people even though doing so will make them more money. Others do not place money so high on the totem pole of priorities in this world. These are the better people in my book. To me, it's not about the money. I can easily afford a $167 Wii Fit and I am willing to pay that amount for it. I just refuse to reward extremely selfish people like you who do almost anything just to make a buck regardless of the impact it will have on others. The best people in this world have much better standards. We do not survive the way that we do by being so selfish.
I blame Nintendo for the shortages. I blame you for having screwed up priorities which negatively effect the lives of others out of greed and selfishness.
everyone in this thread is either extremely jealous or just a HYPOCRITE.
I wonder what most of you do for a living, probably either working for a company which provides an absolutely worthless service or you sell snake oil.
boohooooooo, people are better who don't value money? Good luck finding someone who doesn't care about money. Are you a hedonist or something? I'm glad you have other priorities in life and you missed the point completely, all of you do.
All my auctions start at ONE CENT, if successful people outbid non successful people who will not pay more than retail because they are either poor or CHEAP, then why should they play the latest games before someone successful who takes care of the system? Why the fuck should I care? futhermore, why doesn't nintendo make them $49.99 instead of making 300% profit? So it's okay for corporations to net billions but the 'mom and pop' BM/ebay stores shouldn't exist?
and also, i'm sure everyone of you sell your games after you play them. That's taking BILLIONS of dollars away from publishers and developers but you're just 'exercising your rights.' And to think you're gamestop's best customers and their whole business is built on scamming.
hospitals charge your insurance companies $800 for a toothbrush, orthodontists charge $7,000 for braces these days and car dealerships will advertise an infiniti for $14,000 just to get you into their dealership when the deal isn't even real and the car 'sold' before the ad was even published. It's a dirty world, either get with it or get left behind in the gutter.
I could go on and on but it's really pointless.
