Cut the guy some slack -- making a profit does not make him a scam
artist. He's selling a working drive for less than you can get it
elsewhere. Just cause he's selling it for more than he paid for it isn't a
f'n crime.

There's still the whole use of Georgia Tech resources to run a for-profit
business deal in violation of the computer and network usage policy, but
he doesn't appear to be a scam artist.
