So? He's not required to tell you what he bought it for. It's still a bargain, it's a better price that you would have received by going to Random Store A and buying one off the shelf. Do stores tell you what they bought their items for? Are you pissed off that they don't? Do you call them scam artists? If buying low, Selling high is a scam every successful businessman in America is a scam artist. So he's making some cash on the side, big deal. Don't begrudge him his profit. Consider it compensation for his going to the trouble to go to CompUSA bright and early Sunday morning to get the special.
