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.
