Also, the box has a returns address to The Hut Group; didn't realise that Nintendo and the Hut Group were affiliated?

Your looking at probably in the region and this is me being generous, between 15%-25% off a £1. However the true figure would be around 7/11p..obviously these are gestimates.

While we're on the subject of greed and charities.
Does anyone know how much of anyone's donation (doesn't matter which charity) actually makes it to the intended recipients?
50p in the pound perhaps? :smile:
25p in the pound perhaps? :confused:
Probably less if the truths known.
Oh, and where do some of these major charities have their headquarters?
Expensive, well off areas of London I bet?
What about the salary of the directors of such charities earn?
British Red Cross Society = £200,000+
Save The Children International + £250,000+
Cancer Research UK = £250,000+
Age UK = £180,000+
British Heart Foundation = £180,000+
The highest paid employee of some charities is over £500,000 and in several cases £750,000 - £850,000!:confused:
.......and that's why, I personally do not give to charity.
One would do better giving up time to help in a lot of cases IMHO.

Never said you robbed, just that it was pretty greedy. Don't think anyone would disagree with me (except you, obviously, since you're here boasting about it).

How is he greedy! Everyone is greedy for money then, you could call people asking for pay rises greedy then. If theres a loop hole to making money so be it, look at all them millionaire tax dodging corps and business men, they dont live in £50 million houses because they were happy on a salary. Xmas is here you think retailers will keep prices down, course not they want all your money!

how can I be greedy when I purchased 1 and I did not want so I flowed it on ebay, obviously am not going sell at a lost! and even if people do decide to buy hundreds and decides to sell at a higher price what's the problem? if you don't want to buy it don't buy its simples, this reminds me of school play ground ur greedy etc
roadie to herrbz
26 Nov 16#53
Please buy 1 and donate it to charity.
roadie
26 Nov 16#52
This is just plain schoolboy mentality on this site. If someone finds a deal and sells on ebay or buy's more than 1 then they are classed as greedy! Ironically, the retailer who sell these products sell millions and guess what they sell it at profit. Ignore these numpties!

well I bought it for my lad and then he changed his mind and I saw the price they were fetching on ebay so I put it on there and with that money he can have something good bigger and better.

TCB gives £2.10 cashback if you ordered through them.

25 Nov 162#44
Even though it's selling at that price it's not worth it because of the eBay/Paypal/shipping fees. CeX is a better solution.

Just ordered thanks x

Agreed. I got one at release too, intending fully to use it. I felt £35 was a bit steep so had no idea that they'd be selling for over double that.. When I saw what they were selling for on eBay, quite simply, I felt that if someone wanted one that much, that I should give them the opportunity to have one. No one is forcing people to buy things on
I've ordered another (actually, I ordered a couple of hours back as a friend noticed they were in stock - I diodn't see it on here, and I still want one. When it arrives, if it's still selling for £70 on eBay, mine will go on there again and someone who wants it more than me can have it again. If they are selling for less, I'll be happy and keep mine as I intended to in the first place.

Game publishers treat customers like sheep and rightfully so, they aren't willing to vote with their wallets so no one can really judge anyone for hiking the prices.

Good price if you can still put up with the never ending grind that is Pokemon Go

25 Nov 162#30
exactly it's not as if we put guns on people head and force them to buy it lol. even then after all the fees on ebay and paypal ur hardly left with anything lol no wonder the inflated prices.
Spasho
25 Nov 162#29
You don't have to explain it to anyone. I scalp stuff too but it comes down to people willing to pay so if customers do pay the inflated price then so be it.

When it's on kids santa list's and out of stock whilst being sold at greatly inflated prices it's greed in my eyes ,that's my opinion.
