So here's my question on the whole BBTS vs Scalper thing. What's the difference? So we want to say "BBTS is running a business and trying to make a profit". That's fair and a legit argument, but can't it also be said of scalpers? "They're just trying to recoup their resources and make a profit" yet we don't like scalpers, yes they buy up sought after things and inflate the price on the secondary market, but SDCC exclusive are limited in numbers so BBTS's people buying them from the con to be sold on a technically secondary market, takes them away from people at the con, just like scalpers take things from us in the toy aisle. I'm not saying I agree with the practice, I'm just saying it's the same thing and BBTS doesn't deserve a pass just because we like them better. It just seems like saying "Better the devil you know"
