Scalpers are the worst, avoid them. A public service announcement
174As per the title, this was just a quick video that I was prompted to make after a few emails, but this sort of practice is rife everywhere there are any stock shortages. I'm not talking about you selling one part second-hand and almost getting the full price back because the market changed. I'm talking about people deliberately buying up all the stock possible and then hugely inflating the prices.
It can be tough these days as we all want that instant gratification of getting something RIGHT NOW. But if we give in the problem will grow. I guarantee that anyone in the hobby will always have at least 3 projects they were meaning to get around to - do those instead while the item you want comes back into normal stock and then pick it up from your local supplier.
I did tell Jenny in the emails that I thought their pricing was an outrage and wouldn't be having anything to do with them, but I did mention that I would make a video about them.... but perhaps not in the way she wanted. I'll be sure to send her the link to this video.
