Re: Re: cel buying & selling practices (Wed Nov 15 12:49:32 2000 )

Yeah but what if that person is the one that kept 
you from getting the cel in the first place? Now 
you're spending a lot more on something because of 
a very obvious and unnecessary middle man. I *know* 
it's not illegal, it is capitalism at it's finest. 
But doesn't it bother you, at least a little bit? 
It's not like the middle man is providing a service 
(like purchasing cels that are otherwise 
unavailable to you, ie deputy service). They're 
simply stepping right in front of you, paying the 
same $$$ as you would have, then turning around and 
holding out their hands to you for more. 

Again, I understand that this is how *it works*. 
But what ever happened to actually providing a 
service? I don't mind paying good money for a cel. 
But I do mind rewarding the person who kept me from 
it in the first place. So, like was suggested, I 
won't bid on those items. No way any of my $$$ is 
finding it's way into these people's pockets. And 
maybe, as a consumer, most of my money goes to 
people who are doing the exact same buy-to-sell 
routine. But this is just right under my nose. I 
can see it, so it bothers me.
