I wish more people were like this. It's called being an entrepreneur. The only people pissed are those who wished they had the ambition (and risk taking personality) to do something like this. There is a chance of failure, and it's enough to dissuade most people, myself included.
EVERY COMPANY THAT MAKES MONEY BUYS SOMETHING FOR ONE PRICE AND SELLS IT FOR MORE THAN THAT PRICE. If they didn't, they wouldn't make money. Gamestop doesn't buy those 59.99 games for 59.99.
I think what he's doing is great. Commendable, even.
It's not like he's defrauding a charity, or anything. These are consumers making the free-choice to buy something for what they feel it is worth. That's how buying and selling work.
