This in itself is not a ~bad~ thing. There is a moral relativism at play here, some think someone who is going to use the equipment has more right to a good deal than someone who is going to resell it, or worse, put it in a display case as part of a collection. Others think that it shouldn't make a difference what the intent of the buyer is. Until there is a law making it illegal for someone to browse auction sites with the intention of playing it like the stock market, what JCO is doing is a legitimate business. No one has the right to denigrate him for doing no wrong. William Robb
