It absolutely is not. Just how it's also not ok to buy the overpriced RTX 40 cards because it ruins the market for all of us.
Exactly right. It requires seeing yourself as a part of a community vs. fulfilling our selfish interests at the expense of others.
Another example were the suburban PS5 buyers who bought from scalpers so "their kids" could have one, not giving any thought to the fact that they're contributing to a system that excludes the disadvantaged (or, even worse, knowing but not caring).
How does participating in the market ruin the market? It's literally a fucking market. If they're so overpriced then why are people buying the cards?
Why don't you flock to their competitor if they're pricing their items right and providing just the right value?
