    I feel sorry for the parents who will have to pay ebay prices because of greedy vultures like those on this forum are stocking up, all to happy to cash in on desperate parents this Christmas who could not get one.

    Im fed up with the people on this forum who seem to think that they have some right to tell others how many of a certain deal they are allowed to buy and what they can do with the deal once they have bought it.

    I have not bought this deal as i dont want to but if i did want to go into my local Woolworths and buy 10 of the Elmo's then i will. Then if i decide to go home and list 9 on Ebay for increased prices then i will do that too. If a parent wants to come along and buy the Elmo then that is great. If the parent is too stupid to check local toy retailers before buying from Ebay then tough.

    This is called good business. Buying at a cheap price and selling on for a profit does not make you a vulture, it makes you sensible. People seem to think that they have some god given right to these deals and anyone who may put them on Ebay should be hung drawn and quartered. The deals posted are for everyone, not just certain individuals.

    Funny you should say that, I eventually caved in & decided to buy a couple. Got through to CS to ask which stores have them in stock and was advised my local ex-BigW had 'loads'. Rang them and asked if they would save me a couple and she said they only had 4 left and they hadn't been put out yet! When I said that's unbelievable as I've just been told you have 'loads', so who's bought them I think she realised her faux pas! :rolleyes:
