    I don't understand why we jump all over folks that post on Ebay, but this bothers nobody. Isn't this flipping? Maybe, he's not making a profit. But, he basically bought the item to be used as ransom when there are plenty of folks (not me) that wanted to just purchase this straight up and not have to part with anything other than the price of the album.

    It seems hypocritical. This is viewed as helping others. But, selling on Ebay is seen as the devil (and for the record - I would do neither. If I want something, I try to buy it. If I don't want it, I leave it for others to buy).

    Sorry this offends you man. I bought a White Vinyl for myself and an extra in hopes I could trade for 9/3 posters. I wouldn't sell it on eBay. I don't think this is "flipping" but if moderators think it is, I am happy to take down my post and not use my extra White Vinyl for trade. My brother in law and I had a great time at PJ 20 and I'm really hoping to give him a 9/3 Ames as a surprise because he's a big poster collector. Not looking to make money here.

    I know it sounded that way. I was actually criticizing those that get upset at the eBay thing. I personally couldn't care less. You bought it. Do what you want with it. Carry on...
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    he is buying a $25 white vinyl that he knows has a trade value of $150.

    He doesn't know this. For all we know, the demand might have dropped and it might be worth exactly what he paid for it. You can't assume that just because it sold for $150 in the past, it will do so again. He might actually LOSE money on an eBay auction for this item, after fees and shipping.
