Buying out all stock before Christmas

Hi, I was just wondering what people thought about this.
Whenever a Nintendo Wii comes up for sale, normally people will buy 3 or 4 now, with the prices over the past two or three weeks being so inflated. I personally think it's unfair, but then again, everyone's out for profit, supply and demand isn't it?
There was a thread about TVs earlier today, where a misprice meant £1000 TVs were being sold for £150, and some people were buying 2 or 3 (or in one case 7
) and I just think, yea it's lovely you can get a good bargain but you shouldn't necessarily just try and horde it all yourself.
I dunno, it was guys on a thread on another forum ordering 10 Wiis each that annoyed me. If you look on eBay prices are starting to come down now anyway, it's just a bit exploitive though isn't it?

It's the same with concert tickets- the only way the cunts that are eBay touters will stop is if people stop buying from them.
