the issue there is that most of those sales involve grooming. you LYING to him telling him it's not worth what it is. nowadays, it doesn't work like that. people can ask, check out, or put together it's value. in MOST cases where this STILL occurs it's taking advantage of a younger player by grooming him into believing it's worth less. there have been times where i have bought things for cheaper than they're worth with a happy seller, but it didn't involve grooming, lying, or deception. those sales happen, but those are not what i'm talking about. we have people who groom(ie: LIE) to children who get lucky to rip them off and sell it later. that's quite different then getting a deal and leaving a happy buyer regardless of the price/value.
