    no matter how big or small your profit,if its business, its business. And in the first place, buyers were not force to buy, its their own free will to purchase. Naa ba diay negosyo mu ginansya ra ug 1 taga butang. The bigger, the better as long as wla ka manikas. Discarte raman gyud daogon ang tanan

    DO YOUR RESEARCH FIRST BEFORE BUYING. IF YOU DONT WANNA BE RIPPED OFF THEN HAVE A LOOK AROUND-CHECK DIFFERENT SITES FOR PRICES.be a smart as$ and don't let those overprofitting companies rip you off.outsmart them. you can't call them evil, its a matter of survival in this world. everyone will take advantage of you esp in retail businesses.

    kai ti-aw kaayo na wai reseller from Pinas na di mamuhunan ug palit from fellow resellers?

    AGAIN: di dautan mukita. pero dakong kadautan ang sobra.

    @istoryamember: i doubt if iPhone is made in america. kai as far as i know, iPhones are manufactured in China. ergo, nganong ang mga tsino hanas mangopya ug technology.


    di gyud, TA gyud ang mga reseller. nawng ug kwarta.

    tinuud, naa sa ako gahum ang desisyon mupalit o sa dili. kai mureklamo ko ug mushare sa istorya.net magbuut uban? hehehehe.

    church gud tawn. abi kai nihatag kog excerpt sa bibliya, misahan na dayon? mao nai nakadaot sa uban. musimba lang pero wai punto. maminaw pero di mubuhat. tsk tsk tsk.
    bro, naa may dili iPhone. Palit nalang gud anang lain nga brand para dili mahal. If dili maka afford ug iPhone, try kanang naay TV.

    Again, mao man na ako gikalibgan sa uban mga tao gud kay mag reklamo nga mahal ang palitonon pero pwede ra baya ug dili siya mopalit ana nga butang. And lastly, you mentioned about amazon, now you got our point nga as a buyer you have the right to buy or not, to look for other deals or not.

    I don't know what promoted you make this post but its something you and everyone cannot control , especially the basic rule of economics which is supply and demand , if you have a good product, maybe rare there will always be someone that is willing to buy it at a sellers price even at higher price. The product is there , someone puts a price , and its the buyers choice whether he wants it or not.

    And Nitwit is right, before you purchase something don't go head on, look around, compare prices and check out the best deal ... you always have a choice whether u purchase it or not

    why post a link for manufacturers then?

    if imo pasabot taas patong ang mga re-sellers like here in istorya, THERE IS ALWAYS ANOTHER SELLER THAT SELLS THE SAME ITEM......that easy.............

    tuud, di ko kabuut sa magnegosyo, pero isip Kristiyano, obligasyon nako maski papano na mutry man lang na mu share ug knowledge against frauds.

    way perpekto sa kalibutan, tanan makasasala. pero ang gitudlo mupuyo sa tudlo sa Ginoo. mao na ako gibuhat diri. no big deal really.
    God doesn't care what people do with their money and what they buy. There are reasons why "diperensya" ang items, like it was purchased from somewhere and mobayad pa sa shipping or naay added feature or downloaded new version application.

    It's always the prerogative of the seller kung unsang price iyang gamiton. As buyer if dili kaya sa imong budget adto ka sa mas cheaper kaysa sige kag reklamo na walay moral ang reseller and gabaan siya kay expensive iyang items.

    Thou shall not use God's name in vain.

    mao dyud, i agree with you. point man lang dyud nako aning thread nako was to air out my disgust on the issue of profit. like i said over and over, wai dautan mamuhunan ug mukita. pero not to the extent na manlamang na kag buyers. mao ni di masabtan sa ubang buyers. always ilahang defense is business man, dapat lang mu profit. sige lang tuyok2x sa issue pero wala sila masayod sa ako punto about over-profiting. kumbaga, wa nalang dyud diay katungod mag honest business bah.

    actually, the thread i made is intended lang for airing out my disgust over the issue of over-profiting. maski man tingai balibalihon nimo ang issue akong gi brought up sa thread wa dyud lain pasabot ako issue kung dili ang DISHONESTY over making a business. di nalang ta MAGPINILOSOPO ug tubag sa na kesyo business lagi, dapat mukita kai maski kinsang tawo kabalo man sa rule ana.

    and besides, wa man sad ko nag ingon sa fellow istoryans to click on my thread. kusa man mo nisulod and nibasa. hehehehe. una mu mubungad ug comment, empathize una mo di kai smear dayon mo ug reasons or rude comments na mao ni mao na.
