Is this unethical?

Similar to the First Citywide Change Bank, how could I make money doing this? The answer is simple: Volume.

Interesting article about resellers. It's focused mainly on sneaker resellers, but the game is the same.

"Sneakerheads aren’t the only resellers around, but they had started to expand their business beyond footwear. They’d branched out into hawking other exclusive products that were all being released via e-commerce due to pandemic restrictions. Conveniently, e-commerce was a retail battlefield they’d already had a years-long head start on, gaining a competitive edge over retailers that weren’t used to managing massive product drops. Scarcity is not limited to footwear, and money spends the same. Those $500 Nugget couches weren’t being sold by other moms. They were being hoarded next to Yeezy sneakers and Funko Pop! figurines.

Desperation breeds markets, and both can be manipulated. ... The reseller’s job is to diagnose that desperation and capitalize on it."
