Default Re: Bioshock Infinite: AUTOGRAPHED MIND IN REVOLT BOOK only 15 available

This whole episode with the books is a horrible thing. I spoke with 2k and they told me multiple people bought more than 1 signed book. Shit some of us even got confirmation numbers on legit orders, only to have those orders canceled so they could pass out signed copies on launch night. This was the worst episode in my collecting career, then to see prices like this jacked up is even worse. I never imagined the unsigned books would go so quick. Sad part is 2k doesn't care about their customers, I figured they should do some thing special for me and mortal Monday since they canceled our orders for the signed copies, they could have given one to each person who ordered instead of multiples to a few. Sad sad days, im sorry to all the true fans

When the item is so low in number, resellers are like cheaters in online games they don't give a fuck about the others, they just want to win and get away with it.

Well to be fair this can be a good thing....not in this case of coarse.

But if a member buys a few and they get sold out quick and that member then sells them to other members who missed out on it for a small profit that is a good thing. For two reasons, they would have missed them completely and they save them from buying them scalped at ridiculous prices. There just need to be limits to these things.



But we are getting somewhat off topic.

Of course I don't have problems with that, if you do it to help a member and you sell it at cost or to make a little profit sure why not? But when you buy something as limited as this with that ebay scalper mentality, I think that's pretty low. If this were limited to 300-1000 then do whatever you want, my problem is with extremely low numbers.

Bottom line is 2K really should have only allowed singles to be sold to one person.

Asiak - making a tidy profit on the lithographs too I see.
