Like Leon, this is really the only time flipping will bother me. I have sold some things (that I may not have actually had for sale) to someone as a sort of favor to help them along with a project, only to see the item immediately go up for sale at a significant mark-up. It kinda makes you want to help others less for a while, but these situations are few and far between and have never really left a lasting bad taste in my mouth--it is irksome though!
