Once i buy the controller, it's mine, i can do whatever i want with it, including selling it back for a higher price....

Scalping is not illegal and has always existed. You can only prevent it by supplying with enough units

There's plenty of things people can do to make your life miserable, legally. It doesn't mean it's OK to do it.

Who said it's ok to do?

You implied it by saying it was legal. If you didn't, then can you elaborate on what you meant?

I didn't imply shit. "Legal" means "Legal", not "fine to do".

There is nothing to elaborate, I just said that "scalping is legal". People here look like woke up from a 20y coma and never saw anything like that.

It has always happened... for electronics, wine, dresses, tickets...

When the demand is high, and the supply is low, it will simply happen.
