Priere posted... One of my favorite things in the world is to watch them lose their ass.
A personal fav was this guy on facebook market place who went to every gamestop in town and bought dozens and dozens of copies of Cyberpunk for the PS4. At this super early window, it was a chore to find the game on PS4.
He listed a pic with his big ass stack of them and was trying to charge 75 bucks each, and naturally put tags in the description about how hard it was to find and GOTY and blah blah blah. I remember thinking "what an asshole scalper".
Flash to about 2 weeks later, when everyone knew the game was trash. He relisted the shit but cut the price to 65 bucks (still gotta make a profit). With a nice new pic of the stack that looked to be the exact same size.
2 weeks after that. priced down to 60, then 55, then 50 and so on until it bottomed at 40 with only a couple of copies sold.
I was wondering why he didnt just return them, until he uploaded a nice new pic of the pile that showed that every single one was opened (the entire time probably). Did the game come with some kind of DLC code or something? I know these losers love to open the games and try to sell those on the side.
In the end, fuck that guy. I hope he lost hundreds he invested trying to "make a hustle", and had to resort to selling them to gamestop for pennies on the dollar.
Wonder why he put them on Facebook instead of ebay. Sure there are fees but there are also millions of foo...buyers who will pay anything to get what they want right away. People on facebook are usually local and cheap.
