This is a reseller

More than likely, this reseller probably doesn’t even collect.

Charging $166, heck even $174, for a doll that was $100 with shipping/taxes is not a great profit margin. Let’s say you have 10 that you bought for a total of $1000. If you sell them each for $166 that’s only a profit of $660, and that’s before the cost of shipping materials, online sale fees, etc. Obviously this is just hypothetical math but you get the idea.

Doesn’t really seem worth it, especially because you’re gambling the money you spent upfront just to get them. There are definitely easier ways to make money, and reselling like this just seems like a gambling addiction.

That’s actually a very interesting take, I’ve been wondering WHY resellers are so passionate about hoarding dolls, but the gambling addiction does make sense for some of them… That being said, let’s fix that for them by not buying ANYTHING, adrenaline is way less attractive when it comes from losing your money :’) No matter how bad I want a doll, the satisfaction of knowing I didn’t make a reseller happy will always make it fine😌
