If resellers bother you then unfortunately you will continue to be disappointed over and over again. Now with the Internet, everybody in the entire world has access to everything. Which means demand has gone way up, but supply has remained the same. Just good old American democracy ensuring everyone access to the American dream. USA

In general I agree with you and selling at a markup is what many people do. The issue for me comes when there is a limited supply of an item. He took one from someone that could have gotton it at msrp. Its just like the video cards....You can't even get one....at all because of what the scalpers are doing. They are causing a shortage by buying them up. I have issues with that...
I have a buddy of mine that sells these things to buyers in rich countries like the UAE and Qatar. He seems to think the most somebody would get on a first edition is maybe 20,000 over MSRP. So maybe 85k, but who knows.

Once someone takes ownership of something they can do whatever they want with it.
If he wasn't to sell it for 95k and someone else what's to buy it that's their perogative and none of our business.

I get it.
That doesn't really apply here though. There's plenty of broncos for whoever wants them. Just may wait a little longer.
That person that wants it at msrp can still get it. Just not till next year. Maybe the following.
Plus this person, I assume, which could be wrong, didn't buy like 1k reservations and is now selling them. It's 1.

That's assuming this posting is even legitimate. The full payment up front makes me very suspicious of this being a scam. You'd have to be crazy to not escrow the money (on top of being crazy enough to pay $95K).

Would be a shame if someone robbed him directly after selling it. If the market exists, why shouldn’t someone be allowed to make money off him?

Huh? Doesn’t apply? It’s the exact same scenario. There’s plenty of PS5’s you just might have to wait till next year to get it at MSRP.
Either way it’s not the 1st post like this and just follow the pathetic trend of buying in demand items in hopes of ripping people off. Why can’t you enjoy your life without having to try and make a profit off other people?

That is a first edition Bronco...They are limited to 7k. A lot of people tried to get one but couldnt because the site was slow because of all the demand. I'd feel better about it if he was just trying to resell a standard Bronco, but thats just me.

They are throttling down the 3060s so that the hash rate is half of what it is supposed to be for mining. This will help get them to their intended audience...gamers...not miners...I dont think they did the same for the 3070s, 3080s and 3090s.....but I wish they would.
I still think this guy will have a hard time with that sale....500 miles or less.....Someone paying 95k will have an issue with that.
Very good point, my original interest in the Bronco started after seeing how well old Wranglers did on resale with tons of miles on them. To see Warnglers hold their value tells me the Broncos will do the same and it’s not like reliability and quality has anything to do with it. I think any of us who get a 2021 will do just fine on resale compared to buying any other run of the mill vehicle.

This is my last opinion because I have a very strong take about scalpers 
I bought a PS5 and 3 XBOX X’s day one and I sold 3 of them for face value and kept an Xbox. I could have have made $1,500+ in profit off people, but why the F would I do that to someone?
At one point there was like 70K Xbox’s and PS5’s combined on EBay. Roughly 30-35 million dollars worth of merchandise listed at one time. That probably netted 60-70 million dollars in profit for people. “Oh that’s life, that’s the world we live in! No big deal!”
It’s a joke, plain and simple. eBay is to blame for this bullshit and if they had any integrity would not allow scalping on their website but they don’t care because they take a piece of the pie. Scalping should be illegal.
