If you buy a PS3 for $600 and sell it for $5,000, you have to pay taxes on $4,400.

these folks have to pay taxes on their profit, as well.

I care because i have tried to teach my children to have an honest work ethic.


What makes one form of work more honest than another? This is the American entrepreneurial spirit at its best.

I just wish I knew what you think is unethical or immoral about buying an item, marking it up, and reselling it. By that logic, every retailer in the world is immoral and unethical.

going rate as of this hour is around $1500, about half of friday's price. I wonder if any of those buyers are sorry they jumped on $3000 and couldn't wait a few days?
