Scalping to me dosen't really make financial sense, as it takes time and effort. If they were moving large volumes on a regular basis, then fine. Its all about someone getting a buzz about buying something cheap and then selling it for profit. Thats it. Id be surprised, if the person would use this money to pay bills, no they will go out and blow it on something selfish.

I just hope people know and understand the difference between someone scalping, and someone trying to sell something at market value. Totally understandable the rage when something for retail is swiped and put on ebay for double the price. But say if the same item shows up years later maybe the market value is indeed double the original retail or less or worthless.
