There is absolutely nothing wrong with scalping. when a scalper buys something they are using their time/expertise to acquire limited goods while also making a risky investment. the marked up price they put on those goods is for the risk+time/expertise they put into those goods. as someone with a life and a job and a happy family the buyer doesnt have time to worry about getting in line fast enough to acquire the goods therefore they pay the scalpers the extra money for the convenience of acquiring such goods. show me your counter arguments anons

>>738474610I bet taking scalps is fun. Imagine the thrill of showing off your collection to all your friends
>>738474874did you read the post illiterate faggot anon?
>>738474610i don't need to change your mindi just need you to get in the oven jewstein
>>738474610I don't want to pay someone because they used a bot they coded with ChatGPT. They are taking no risk. At worst, they sell at the price they bought it and get their money back. They create no value for people like me who have free time to order products normally and for their real value.
We need a scalp taking simulator but woke people won't allow it
Making money is more important than having morals, ethics, restraint or empathy. Give in to that little voice in your brain that screams "MORE!!!!! GIVE ME MORE!!!!!"
>>738477103there are countless stories of scalpers losing a bunch of money when the producers lie about how much stock is available or when they ramp up production there absolutely is a risk in scalping
>>738477557there is nothing immoral about scalping, its just a business practice. no one is entitled to a product. the product is limited. there is a line. you can either spend your time on the line or pay someone else for taking care of that for you
>>738477870and we love to see those stories
>>738474610Scalping is wrong because it's rentseeking that serves to extract additional economic value from the purchase and sale of goods while creating no new wealth from the exchange. It's parasitic middleman shit done by niggers and losers looking for a free lunch.>>738478028People are entitled to engage in commercial activity in good faith without the activities of scalpers and other parasites driving up the price of consumer goods and getting nothing in return.
>>738478390you just threw a bunch of jargon at me and didnt justify anything
>>738474610Making a game inspired by Kangdom Come Deliverance would be pretty fun. Imagine all the precolumbian armor you could collect for taking scalps of bad guys, like really bad guys, so bad that it is difficult to describe type of bad guys, but more importantly if I were to make a quest, it would end in a melee fight, where you decapitate a bad guy, and bring their head to scalp in front of the good guys, only for the good guys to be like dude what the fuck? Good job, but what the fuck?
we have a limited product. 100 units. 1000 people want it. how do we deal with this? first come first serve? its not fair for the people who dont have time to wait in line. lottery? people who won the lottery will stand outside of the establishment and sell their good for a higher price.the most draconian answer is you have to use the product you buy then you can use it and i dont think anyone wants to live in that shithole reality
>>738479247>how do we deal with this?Scale up capacity, because you're missing out on selling 900 units.
>>738478390>>738479247
>>738479353gaming niggers love to produce limited capacity products
>>738479353what if the nigger factories dont want to upscale
>>738479483they will be shocked when they find out what a jew the gaming industry is
>>738474610and people will fall for this shit, goddamn
>>738484207the sheep are slaves of convenience
>>738478028Exactly. Just make money. Morals are for the weak and the poor.
>>738485883making money and morality are not mutually exclusive
>>738486201However, they come into conflict a lot.
>>738486239yes but scalping isnt the case
>>738486201Yes they are. You can be rich or you can be good. You can't be both.
>>738486391cope poorfag
>>738486391if you can prove this im listening
>>738474610The store does that. I don't need a second store to get in the way when the first one is already annoying.
>>738486556Look at the world we live in. That's all the proof you need.
>>738486768neck yourself vaguefag
>>738486678the item is limited, there are 100 items and 10k people want them, you either line up and hope you get the item or you pay the extra and get the item its not that deep
>>738474874Illiterate and a rulefagGenuinely, life would be better without you in it. I just know you've never had an ounce of worth in your life, in anyone's eyes.>>738474610It's scummy behavior, but there's no way to stop it so there's no sense worrying too much about it.
>>738486832It's always the worst of humanity at the top. It's always the worst who have the most. It's always the biggest, strongest and meanest bullies who get ahead. The world actively rewards them for not having any morals. Clearly, that is the ideal for which we should all strive. Humans were never meant to be heroes, or innovators. We are meant to be savage, perpetually hungry monsters, devouring everything in our path, and even devouring each other. We are meant to devour the entire world. To drain it to death. That's our destiny as a species.
>>738487013i disagree, its not scummy or evil or bad, its natural for some niggers to take that risk and collect some items to sell in the future. speculation is a part of the human nature
>>738487108dont we us jew thats just you demons evil fag jews do humanity a favor and end your life youre a worthless nigger jew who polute this gods green earth
>>738474610i agree it is simply an unavoidable side effect of the first come first serve model. And while other models exist the FCFS model is the most straightforward and unbiased method of distribution. Afterall there is not a best option there are only options all with differing tradeoffs you can argue its shitty behavior but then that's someone else's problem on an unrelated note native women owe me sex
>>738478772>I'm too illiterate too even begin to understand what you're saying so you're wrongNothing he said was esoteric or hard to understand. His point is that scalping does nothing except enrich an individual to the pure and objective detriment of everyone else. It's selfish, antisocial behavior. Scalpers are little better than scam artists or pickpockets.
>>738486967The store wouldn't be that understocked. You also need to factor in that there's more than one of them.
>>738487391based red indian lover
>>738487360This is how all humans are, deep down. Humans are just monsters pretending to be people. That's why we make such good demons. And say what you will about demons, but they don't burn and torture and rip people apart and call it morality. They definitely do all of that, but they don't have the audacity to call it good and just.
>>738487437they take their time to get in line, they use their resources to get the limited items
>>738487437did you not read what i wrote? there is a limited amount of the product, there is a high demand, the scalpers those good and assign it its real market value. its not that deep. people who hate scalping do so because they dont understand how the markets work or they are an illiterate nigger
