What is a Scalper?
A scalper is someone who buys an in-demand item (in this case miniatures) to resell it at a vastly inflated price. These scumbags make themselves an unwanted middleman in an attempt to make profit.
What Do?
Practice self control and wait till you find the item you want at a reasonable price (usually after the demand dies down). The main reason scalpers exist is because fa/tg/uys (and some could argue tabletop gamers in general) often lack self-control and are blinded by hype for the latest release.
