However, while players criticize scalpers’ behavior, scalpers often make excuses for themselves to conceal the legitimacy of their actions.

However, ‘Eternal Cang’ points out that from an economic perspective, the behavior of scalpers clearly hinders economic development and should not exist. He clearly demonstrated this through a set of diagrams.

Assuming that scalpers hoard a large amount of goods and inflate the price of the model.

If there were no scalpers involved, this player could purchase multiple models and peripheral products with the same budget.

In the meantime,The hype of scalpers can lead to a reduction in the economic scale of the model industry and ultimately ruin the entire industry.

Because for shop owners and manufacturers, players’ original budget can purchase multiple products, but due to scalpers’ involvement in profit, it is intercepted, resulting in the inability to create economic value that could have been circulated in the industry.

This theory has won the recognition of a large number of netizens, and he further added:

We cannot only consider our own interests. Some players purchase multiple models to bring multiple benefits to the manufacturer. Some players use their remaining funds for other consumption in addition to purchasing models, thus contributing to the economy. There are also some players who purchase various props and materials to improve the quality of the models. The speculative behavior of scalpers cuts off these additional economic benefits

He questioned, who can guarantee that the money earned by scalpers will flow back to merchants or retail stores? Taking game consoles as an example, the PS5 once triggered malicious hoarding by scalpers, resulting in a sustained downturn in the PS5 market and affecting the sales of game software, forming a vicious cycle.

The money earned by scalpers will not automatically compensate for the damage they have caused to the economy. Once the market trend cools down, the opportunities lost by manufacturers and software companies are irreversible.

In addition, due to the involvement of scalpers, manufacturers and retail stores are unable to accurately predict market demand. Moreover, scalpers are not formal retail channels, and if buyers discover defects in their products, they cannot seek reasonable after-sales service.

When consumers gradually withdraw from the market due to the inability to purchase their desired products, scalpers will not be responsible for the entire industry and will only walk away.

‘Eternal Cang’ emphasizes that his viewpoint is just one example of the phenomenon of many dissatisfied scalpers.
