Hey /biz/
What is your opinion on scalpers?
I personally, really hate them. I view it as a scummy business practice.

It is what it is.
I just find it odd that when it's real estate being scalped, suddenly society as a whole is ok with the "investors"

Trying to make a parent's paycheck go not as far around Christmas or a birthday is pretty fucking evil, that's some Scrooge-tier bullshit.

Blame Nintendo they artificially keep their supply low. Don't tell me they didn't anticipate their product would have such a demand.

They would get them out faster if they could. They still depend on manufacturing cycles.

If a normal customer wants 1 and a scalper wants 50, and there are 100 normal customers and 3 scalpers, how many Switches should Nintendo produce? Keep in mind that a scalper will return all their Switches if they're unable to sell them.
