Resellers sometimes get a bad reputation for being greedy individuals. The most recent example of hatred toward resellers was when the Playstation 5 came out and was immediately sold out.

Some resellers who had pre-ordered, were selling theirs for more than the original price. For some reason, a lot of people who didn’t pre-order, felt that this was unfair.
