Uber had a package sale last week on XM 3" models with random pens and accessories which I was lucky enough to get one. They ask to please allow others to purchase instead of buying and reselling to make a profit and limited to one set per customer. Nice company trying to get products to us "enthusiasts" not resellers at a great price right!
Well I've been waiting to see them pop up in the exchange. Sure enough Monday after mail has run they are there and only can imagine that they also bought more than one set with different accounts/addresses or Uber just didn't catch it.
I understand not all people can afford these knives since the above scenarios have helped raise the market pricing but for some that can't afford them unless there is a msrp sale like at Uber to buy multiples is kind of just unethical in my books. Either buy a set and make a profit then the next time the sale rolls around get one to keep but don't do exactly what Uber asked one not to do!
I've collected and had many hobbies over the years and two really jump out at me for secondary market value being dictated by the above scenario. Knives and believe it or not modern Yo-Yos. I haven't seen this much of an influence with fishing enthusiasts, audio video, radio control, and watches. Just really surprises me especially when the Hinderer's are more of on the down side compared to the past.
Rant over and has me thinking of buying up the stock but doing exactly the opposite next time. Just sell them for a tiny bit more to cover interest and postal services.
