CMV: People complaining about ""scalpers"" don't understand collectables/antiques trade and only make issue worse
It's very simple. "Scalpers" (or just re-sellers) buy out all stocked product right? Well it's not up to people with extra income to be considerate, and it's not up to "real collectors" to pur spotlight on supposed issue. So who's to blame?
How about the actual company who can continue means of production?
And btw "collectors" are the main problem too. Look at Pokémon. A lot of normies jumped in and raised market price like crazy after logan craze, sneakers crash etc. People who don't even care are just trend hopping. People who don't even play the game are buying graded cards at overblown prices for cards in literally 1000s in psa 10s
But no, yean it's literally scalpers fault not trend hopping normies or pokemon company
The only thing i agree with normies is how predatory it is that people use bots to buy out product. But that's about it.
