Scalpers are going to get a visit from the IRS 1099 Fairy at the end of the year.

As much as I agree with you on this, this is the nature of the world we live in. Do you feel the same if someone who made a profit selling their house in the past two years?
I once won a lottery that put me in the front of a line to buy a bottle of pappy van winkle 20 year old for the low retail price of 189 dollars after tax. That bottle was worth over 2 thousand dollars the moment I walked out of the store with it. Do you think I should have sold that bottle for 189 dollars, or 2000 dollars?
99 dollars, to me!
No. You should have either drank it in good health thinking about how lucky you were or foregone buying it if you didn't truly need it, knowing very well that there was a line of your neighbors from your community out the door and down the block that have been standing there waiting a full year that actually wanted it for personal consumption.
The empty bottle sells for almost 30099 dollars, to me!
I have been waiting in line for a year as of last night at 9pm. When my turn comes up and I purchase it, I can do whatever I want with it. As long as Fractal is making it so people cannot buy more than one then it is really none of my business what others do with theirs, whether I like it or not. They waited in line just like the rest of us. I do not know their reasons for selling it. Maybe they are having a hard time and see an opportunity to make an investment in order to pay their mortgage. I do not know their story and I am in no position to judge those I do not know. If the market will pay the price they are asking then I am just grateful I get to buy it for the price Fractal is asking.
99 bottles of pappy van winkle on the wall,99 dollars, to me!
I am not happy with the resellers either but only in passing and then i forget about them, and I drank that bottle of Pappy with my friends one celebration at a time until it was gone. I summed up my actual thoughts right as you posted this to Jmango who seems to be really angry with resellers.
I don't necessarily disagree with your response here, but the context of my response was in response to your response of another post referencing the ability to buy 2 FM9's. That is where I take umbrage, if people are buying a second unit to sell whilst others wait. I agree that buying one is anyone's game. Technically, so is the second, but it's kinda b/s.
They did.. I am pretty sure they back to.. if you are a professional reach out and we will accommodate you.
I am in South Florida which is much different than your description. I wish I was in more of a rural area. I have thought about moving to up around the Leesburg area but I don't want to make my wife find another job. She is doing well where she is. We go up to that area a few times a year to some friends house that have a lot of land. We camp up there and ride motorcycles around that area. Thankfully they have started paving the roads that were full of potholes up there.
Clay dirt roads everywhere,
And they moved a whole hour into the day too.
