Have you been a victim of a scalper?
We all know about ticket scalpers, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Figures and games are the new money makers. People will literally pre-order as much as possible, creating multiple accounts if they have to, until the stock is empty. Then they try and flip the product of choice for 2x, 3x, and as much as 10x the original price. There's really no way to stop them either, as technically they aren't breaking rules.
There is some justice though, most of their resale stuff never gets sold, so it sits around in their garage for decades. I do feel bad for the few fans that NEED that item and pay.
