Default One reason some dealers disgust me

This card just sold on the 15th of July:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/261066112662...84.m1438.l2648

And now it is already up for sale again, only look at what he's asking for it, versus what he paid:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1952-TOPPS-4...item4d0340a440

I'm not sure what disgusts me more about this fellow...that he has no qualitative taste in cards, and seriously thinks he can get that price for a miscut card, that he is so greedy that he is making a 400 percent markup on what he paid for it, or that he clearly has little love for the pastime, and is motivated by the pursuit of profit. Did he even stop to enjoy this card? Or is it just a piece of plastic commodity to be rapidly flipped for a return in his investment.

In my opinion, it's fellows like this that represent everything that is wrong with, and threatens this hobby.
