If someone's willing to pay more, I'll gladly take their money. Not my fault they pay more. Scalpers are stupid? Really? Seizing a opportunity to make money is far from stupid. Profit is made in the first few weeks. If the market isn't there, then most of the times the consoles are return to the store. The newbies to selling hot products like this are the ones who usually lose money. 

I consider preying on naive/desperate people an ethically corrupt practice. That's why I don't do it. If I knew someone really wanted a console and I had two, I'd either sell it for what I paid or flat out give them one... just because I like being a good person.

It's not preying. A product is offered at a price. You either buy it or you don't. People work hard for money and they have the right to spend it however they see fit. If someone pays over double for something that they want, who's to say that's wrong? They choose to spend that money. It's not like their calling people and badgering them to buy it.
