you are not really a video game fan if you want to make other fans (even of the same console/maker) pay more for it by taking up their possible preorders and then selling it to them at higher prices - my opinion


Who wants to be a "real video game fan" if money is involved? rofl

Yea, money is all that counts ..  Well, not to me actually. I don't want to feel like I'm ripping people off, especially not people that I empathize with because they share the same hobby.



It's not much of a risk, no matter what he may make his money back at the very least.



           

Good for you MBP.

Unlike some I see nothing wrong in what you are doing to try to make a few quid (bucks).
You are not doing anything illegal as far as I know.

If someone is willing to pay your price for one of your a wiis what is the problem?
That's how business works. If they can't afford your price they shouldn't buy it.
I see no rip-off in that.

Wish you luck.

Buying up all the supply to scrounge money off of other gamers to buy an iPad.

I hope Al Gore finds and kills you.



Shoulda bought 500



Good for you! I pre ordered 4, so I am hoping this thing goes nuts. When little Billy needs this for Chirstmas, Mom and Dad will come to eBay looking for it. It's how this type of thing works.



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

I hope Nintendo makes enough supply for demand and you crash and burn. :P



while im all for this practise as its first in first served. i wouldnt do that with the wii u at all. I have a good feeling they will manufacture more by release and there will be ample supply a week later. i think you will struggle to make a profit if any.
