Is this the norm after a Ganza?

Some folks haven't even gotten their knives yet and they are already showing up on ebay. I mean, I guess that's capitalism but it sucks for people who missed out and really wanted a knife for themselves. Maybe I'm being silly but this is the norm I guess? As a swimbait fisherman I've often encountered this same thing with sought after lures, we call them "bait flippers."

The listing in question:

I MIGHT be upset if it were a B.I.G. ASH... ;)
Stuff shows up on the auction site after shows and Ganzaas all the time.
 
I think it blows also, but by the same token, there are those that go to blade show and resell the knife for maybe 50 to 100 (guess) more in some cases. How much would it cost me to go to blade show. welcome to the game.
 
Some popular older models deserve a higher price since they are discontinued and hard to find, but trying to make $200 profit or more right after a ganza? to me that's a different thing

When they firdt came out there were many combat grade NMFSH's that sold for $200 more than their original price.

$300 more not $200, my mistake...
As said to me that's a hell of resale but others might think differently and I can understand that, anyway for folks scored in ganza I don't think this bothers them much.
 
That is what is has been about all the time. Buy low when you can and sell high later.
 
You always have to consider the few that are flipping the knife to keep their wife from killing them, :D
 
Welcome To America.
When there is $$$ to be made...........blah blah blah. It's the American way!
Any item is worth what somebody else is willing to pay for it.
 
I think you underestimate the rest of the world. Its not exclusive to America that people should sell something for a profit.
 
With the last Thanksgiving Ganzaaaaa, most knives were available for immediate shipping. However, there were others that still had the normal production process. If you would like to call the office at (419)923-6471, Speak with either Lexi or I, we will figure out where your order is.

Thank you!
