I don't fully think its wrong either, but i really can't say its right, i guess its just my opinion.
Like I said, it's how much worth you put into what you're buying.
An example: People on CL were charging close to $600 for a Wii with an extra controller this past X-mas season. No, it's not worth it. Yes, it was crazy expensive. But do you know why it still sold even though people were well aware that it's $250 MSRP? Because some people decided that seeing their kids happy on x-mas morning was worth more than $600.
And for me, if I can't afford it. I don't buy it. If I really need it, I'll make a well-informed purchase. If people pay over what they should be for a bike on CL, then that's the BUYER'S mistake for assuming that everything on CL is a good deal.
