Forums - Nintendo - Bought a Wii U for resale!

We were at a flea market on Sunday and there was a video game shop there. There were more Nes, Snes, Genesis, PS1, Gamecube, etc. games there than ever seen in one place. I instantly went to Google and tried to look up "Rare Video Games" just so I could find one that they didn't know was worth a lot of money and then sell it.

Unfortunately, the only thing that popped up was Donkey Kong Country, Jet Force Gemini, Killer Instinct, etc. Anyway, I was buying something low to sell at a higher price. I wound up being overwhelmed and buying nothing. I'll go back soon, though. Long story short, I don't condemn you for what you're doing.

i dont support those practices, sorry


Everyone in business practices this.. Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft. If you buy any of their products you're supporting this practice. It's called making a profit. The demand is high and the supply is low. I have 10k in student loans, so I'm going to the store tomorrow and buying more since it'll be the last day of preorders! Wish me luck in my business venture!


So if everyone jumps out of the window will you do it to? And btw YOU are no business  you are a person that willingly does something that should not be done just to make a profit. Why dont you sell your family members to the organ mafia? Would also make some serious money!  just saying.

Sure its not even close to the same but  this is where it starts.



This all makes me laugh. This is not a bad thing to do. I do it all the time with any item I can get.



Ask stefl1504 for a sig, even if you don't need one.

All I can say is that I'm glad I've pre-ordered mine in time, and also that no UK retailers have reported being out of pre-order slots, so this practise may not pay off in the UK like it will in the US where pretty much every store is sold out.

practices like this have lead us to the world economic crisis
its called especulation, and its dishonest

I totally agree with you, the greedy rich are making the sidelined poor pay for their greedy mistakes!

where there is demand, someone will supply

That's the kind of thing a guy I used to know would say all the time. As it turned out, he was a drug dealer. So it's interesting to see that kind of rationalisation put forward for this perfectly morally okay subject.
