In the pic he has 10 copies for PS4 for 70 bucks each

Guess the word didn't get to him about how the game is worth less than nothing.

Did he really think there would be enough demand for this game that he would make a profit on scalping it?

Serves this fucking dumbass right.

I should fuck with him and waste his time saying ill take 5. And then just string him along

It really warms my heart watching these people panic as their inventory quickly loses all appeal and value

He realizes that the game can be bought digitally right?

Yeah, this is one the stupidest case of scalping I've ever heard of. It's not like there'd be a lack of supply even if it wasn't buggy as hell, lol.

Not for PS4 as far as I'm aware, Sony doesn't do download codes and the game is still delisted on the store.

So he spent over $600 (with taxes) in the hopes of making under $100 in profits?

Smart.

Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.

When you factor in the time he has spent marketing the copies, he would still be losing money.

If he wanted to scalp games he needs to go for niche limited print stuff or collectors edition. Even then he'd probably still need to wait for a couple of years. What a moron. Gonna lose a lot of money on this.

He can get up to 27 per game if he trades them in at GameStop

PS4 copies are gonna be dirt cheap next year with the amount of returns they got. He may as well have bought up copies of FIFA to scalp.

Why would you ever try to scalp a game anyway? One, they almost never go out of stock, and these days unlimited copies can be downloaded at MSRP. No one has any incentive to buy a game from a scalper lmao.

I just hope he was one of the assholes that scalped 3080's, and he just burned up his entire profit from that.

2020 birthed a lot of scalpers in tons of communities and hobbies.

It's hilarious when the dumber members of society try it and basically oust themselves as idiots because they didn't research the markets well enough.

I imagine he can just return them.
If that were the case. I would imagine they would have done so by now
