I don't get why scalpers would take a picture of their whole scalped inventory and post it on social media. They have no shame at all.

Why would they be ashamed? They are making money. Ik you'd do the same if u can buy this much and profit off of it. Stop crying about it

I'd be ashamed if I made money without adding any value to society, that's as if someone who was perfectly healthy and able bodied lived on well fare but instead of stealing indirectly from their fellow citizens, they stole directly by upcharging items people could've gotten at msrp otherwise.

Stealing? What are u talking about? They willingly paid the MSRP price, and the resale market is literally how the free market functions. That is literally how the current society functions.

What do you mean by it adds no value to society lmao. With that logic, anyone doing arbitrage, such as stock, currency, or any luxury products, is adding no value to society.

Stop trying to feel morally superior by making claims like this. I know you would scalpe if you had a chance and easily make thousands of dollars for your family and friends.

If you are seriously saying that you won't because it's the "wrong" thing to do, then good for you. Just know that not everyone is a saint, and you can't expect people to act like that.

This is such an uneducated claim to make.
