Of course it is legal and all, but I can still be happy for their follies. There were plenty of fans that wanted the console for themselves, or their children, that unable to buy it at regular price on opening day. They then turned away from the system since they saw some of the prices on eBay and said, "Screw it". Of course this ended up being a fairly good thing for the people that did not get the console since the system still lacks a great title.

More so it could be attributed to the people that started fights outside of the buildings while waiting for this system. The stigma that was placed on people that wanted to get the system. The group of assholes that many people turned into because they were hunting for a profit, and not a gaming experience. That is something that I can be glad about.

Now people lost money on the systems because they were selling them on eBay. It would mean that the auction would be over and so they were locked into a contract to sell. This includes if they did not put a reserve on the item, which would have had them sell it below their purchase price. Think of all the packages that included games or extra controllers that did not reach full value.
