You have no idea what you're talking about. Maybe stop for a second and think before spamming multiple hate posts in the thread.

Scalpers provide the service of price discovery. If there exist scalpers, it is because something was mispriced in the first place.

Most scalping happens on scarce luxury goods that are not necessary in any way shape or form for your survival, existence or even happiness.

No one owes you a 3090 GTX or a front-row concert ticket, but if you really want one, then you're going to pay a bit of extra money for the convenience of being able to get a very scarce good on short notice. Don't try to project your own morality on this transaction.
