Has he posted that he does this illegal activity on the board in the past?



Sorry, I was speaking colloquially with the use of the word “you” designed to be generic. I was not being literal with any of the examples. “You” was being used generically to describe individuals that sell in demand goods that they have early or unique access to at inflated prices, taking away access of those goods by pricing out some target consumers. People (generally, not you as a person even though I am responding to you) have most certainly sold items for more than they paid for them, including generators. There is no federal prohibition on price gouging, so if there is no state of emergency in place it is not illegal, it’s just a crummy thing to do.

Appreciate the clarification. I have to say though, from the tone of your post, it sounded more like you were giving him a hard time for capitalizing on the free market. Perhaps I took a little offense to it as well since I've scalped a few tickets myself in the past. The way I see it is that the person I'm selling them to should have bought them when they went on sale, like I did, and that they are probably thankful that they were still able to buy some tickets to attend the concert that obviously means a lot to them.
