I'm not saying that at all, but when pre-orders closed and there was no indication of them being open again for that edition, you would expect a price hike. I'm not trying to justify what that seller did, because I think it's disgusting that he ordered so many and put so much on top of the RRP. It looks like he was originally selling at $40 over RRP, which I don't think is too bad if you missed the original pre-order deadline, but as demand gets higher, the prices that people will be prepared to pay increases too. In all fairness though, nobody knew what the extra content was at Club Namco until recently anyway. As far as everbody was concerned, it was the same as what was available everywhere else.

In my opinion though, it's the idiots that pay these stupid prices that give the scalpers the motivation to buy up all the stock in the first place. If people were to just boycott listings like this, then the sellers wouldn't be able to afford to purchase such massive quantities in the first place.
