I don’t understand, if he wants to make money why is he flipping kids toys for such a small profit instead of investing in a company or something?
that phenotype says he inherently prefers to be scummy/slimy over being smart or honest, anon
Because shock value and internet hype are toxic
It takes too long for investing to pay off. Not to mention you have to invest a LOT to really make anything, or for it or keep with inflation.Everyone is broke right now, so they need the money ASAP.
>>58208859Or getting a job
>>58208882There are no jobs. The job market is shit and nobody is hiring. Or you end up doing the work for 2-3 people while only getting the pay of one. So not worth it. Or you get scheduled 39 hours a week so the company gets out of giving you the benefits it owes you.
>>58208859Because he's an evil, soulless thief who would rather see children cry than get a real job.
>>58208859Do people actually buy this shit when it's being scalped? I'm trying to buy more FF MTG cards but I'll be damned if I buy these marked up boxes
>>58208887>There are no jobs. Depends on where you live>The job market is shit and nobody is hiring. They are hiring, just a lot of them expect a bachelors degree in phtsics for a fry cook job>Or you end up doing the work for 2-3 people while only getting the pay of one. Never heard of this before. After doing some research, it's safe to assume this is a lie.
>>58208859These "people" are unironically too stupid to actually invest and profit. It's much easier to just camp outside of costco at 6am and scalp children's toys.
>>58208887Take the doom porn back to /pol/ where it belongs
>>58208859Gotta Catch em all
>>58208887>There are no jobs.Being unemployed is a choice
>>58208859While it is difficult to get a job, that's no excuse to scalp. If I, a person who was rejected from McDonald's as a teenager while they were hiring can get a job at an actually decent company, then so can you.
>>58208900Yes because I expect a CHILD to pay $80 for a single copy of some bullshit card that they deem valuable. Tapwater logic anon, if you want to flip. You go where the sweaty losers are and dangle it in front of them. Last I checked only kidults are getting upset over the scalping. Kids don't care because they never had enough money to do this anyway.
>>58210288>not making extra money on the side is a good thing This is why I laugh at you complaining about this cause you act like it's an immoral act when ppl have been hocking and flipping shit since humans learned to barter for goods. It just screams>noooo I should be able to feed my autism by pulling rare cards. It isn't fairrrr!!! They shouldn't be able to buy it all!I have the money to do so and the store runs off money so really it's just sour grapes bitching. And mind you, I knew guys will a full 9 to 5 who did this and they were bringing in an extra grand ontop of their earnings.
>>58208887The market is shit but what are you gonna do? Better saddle up and apply to the jobs you know you can stand cause this shit isn't gonna get any better any time soon. Maybe in the next 5yrs.
>>58210330how is that related in any way to my post ESLthey are children's toys regardless
>>58210345Nothing wrong with making money on the side. The problem comes with the ethics of how you make the money.
>>58208859The more I read this thread, as well as previous ones, the more I realize there are no good arguments for scalping.
>>58208859Scalping is retarded these days. Most of the time they either break even or lose money, because people are getting better at waiting for reprints and shops are getting better at not letting one guy buy it out.
