It's hard for me to understand the difference. If a big corporation resells stuff they didn't make, it's ok, but if a small company/individual person does it, it's not ok?
The pro-capitalism argument would be that the companies that are selling it in the first place (Gamestop, Target, etc) have earned the right to; they've made a deal with Sony to get the consoles and sell them, and they're being productive in providing a convenient way for the consumers to purchase them and for Sony to not have to set up their own fine distribution networks to deliver them to consumers. Scalpers are just grabbing and reselling the consoles without improving the experience in any way, and only have the product in the first place by virtue of being faster. They're middleman that no party benefits from having there. They're leeches

the anti-capitalism argument is that the retail businesses reselling the consoles is also evil
