.....I\'m not ripping anyone off if I sell Wii Fits on Ebay, they pay whatever they\'re willing to pay, and whoever wants the Wii Fits right when they come out pay more money to get them (or they camp out like we have in the past).....

....We did the same thing with PS3s and we camped out from Wednesday night until Friday morning, so I guess any profit we made, we feel like we earned....

....they have made it harder and harder for sellers, and that\'s why I don\'t sell much anymore....

I think I agree completely with Supervike on this one. I can't feel a lot of sympathy for sellers in your situation. Yeah, eBay has made it way more convenient for the buyers than the sellers, but you've been trying to run a profit from making it less convenient for the buyers trying to pick up these items at the actual retail stores.

You are camping out at retail stores, buying out the stock, just so the average joe walking up to the retail store won't be able to find any in stock. Then they are forced to use eBay as an avenue if they want the item, in which people like you jack the prices WAY beyond retail because you've bought them all off the shelf and created a shortage.

Excuse me if I don't have a lot of sympathy for you...you are just trying to manipulate supply to your advantage.
