| nordlead said: so I saw that Formla 1 2009 for Wii was a pretty good game (in another thread on this website) and decided to look into the price on Amazon thinking they may have it $5 off or something like that. To my surprise it was selling for $80 or more new. So I checked GameStop, and it was $39.99 and it said GameStop Exclusive. So I had this brilliant idea, I'll post that I have one for sale on Amazon for $59.99 and see if it sells. Here I was thinking that people will be smarter than this, but it sold within hours. So I went over to the store and bought a copy for a profit of $9, once Amazon was done ripping me off (hey, can't complain since I'm ripping someone else off) So, 1 copy sold, and I think to myself, I wonder how high the customer will go, and I jack the price to $64.99, but I accidentally placed 2. 2 more copies sold within hours. Crap, got to head back to the store again, 2 more copies bought and shipped. $23 more earned. Now, I'm getting a kick out of this, and I've netted slightly over $30 for almost no work. So I post 1 last copy for $69.99 just to see what would happen. Sold within hours plus I got expediated shipping for an extra $3. Now thanks to me, the price of Formula 1 2009 has dropped to $65 new (ok, you can tell me how horrible I am, but my experiment with consumers during the holiday period is complete and I have concluded they must be lazy, desperate, or both) |
I bet you bought all the Princess Unicorn dolls too Dwight.
