I've seen it happen while working for a retailer at one time, and was even guilty of gaining a few hard to find figures that never touched the pegs inside the store. Almost anyone who has worked in retail with an interest in toys is guilty of it at some point.

That said...because I had an unfair advantage for a while over other collectors, and was getting my hands on stuff others wanted before them, did that in turn make me a scalper? After all...none of my stuff ever went onto eBay or was sold at a flea market...but rather onto a nice clean space on the shelf waiting for them.

That said....if you really wanna see a photo of what a scalper really looks like...here you go.



Yeahs, your eyes aren't deceiving you. I even price checked it. Twenty three dollars...for a deluxe. Seriously...WTF TRU!?!?
DA FUQ?!!! Have they lost their gotdamned minds?!!!
