I Hate When People Do This

I agree with everything you have said. It is completely inconsiderate. For every extra someone bought and is trying to sell for a fortune, that is one AC fan who now has to wait longer than they should to be able to purchase the game, and I don't know about you all, but when a new game in one of my favorite series is released (and AC is definitely a favorite), I don't ever want to wait longer than I have to.

I do find it quite irritating when people do this. Especially with concert tickets...
But like, I think I'll be patient enough to wait for them to come out in the shops. Even though I'll have to order online anyways. ;O

I suppose it's a smart thing to do to take advantage of the larget demand, but at the same time annoying if you actually wanna get it for a reasonable price. Tbh I don't reckon it (or anything, for that matter) should be allowed to go up on eBay that quickly.

What are your thoughts on this? If you had the money and really wanted to import, would you give in to these greedy people, or would you rather wait? Do you feel a price max should be enforced, although it will most likely never happen? Because of this I may not even bother.

I would not give in to these people, and it has nothing to do with whether or not I can afford it or my level of desire for this game (which is through the roof). To me it is a matter of principle. The only reason I might do this is if I was dying and this was my one last wish. (But I am not.)

This is not to say that I always get the best deal, but there is a big difference between finding out that I could have saved a few bucks and paying hugely unreasonable scalpers' prices.

If people don't rush and wait until all the copies are available at normal prices, then these companies won't have anywhere to abuse from. I want this game so bad, but I wouldn't pay some greedy company over the top to get it.
