Then why make this thread?
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

you buy luxury items in bulk using an unfair advantage and then reset the supply/demand to your value, 6-10x higher than release value

If it's legal why not? If people are willing to pay your price, like you said it's capitalism.

Just don't take it too far or you'll get called out like that guy who jacked up the price on meds 100x. Can't show his face anymore.

Maybe I'm immoral, but that doesn't seem bad. That exact same thing happens all the time, OPEC comes to mind.

As long as you aren't preventing others from competing with you (something that corporations do all the time via government) you are good to go.

You mean like politicians selling their countries out? Or pharmaceutical companies getting people hooked on pain killers?

No

Also, please see the definition of capitalism. Everyone thinks it is just about making as much money as possible. It is about private ownership and free markets driving growth. What you are describing takes place in every economic system.

I don’t really see a problem unless your buying stolen property or doing like credit card fraud or something.

But I don’t really see how you would buy “luxury goods” in bulk. I probably have a higher standard of what’s considered a luxury good... but most luxury goods don’t have any wholesale systems any more.

They sell in limited quantities directly to consumers or through authorized retailers. The authorized retailers wouldn’t dare sell outside the means of what is expected of them, or for a mark up above msrp, or the risk losing a cash-cow brand. Also, they would never need to sell “in bulk at a discount” because they easily sellout at full msrp with people waiting on waitlists to buy from them.

So either I’m missing something, or OP might be getting scammed himself. It would take a lot of capital to even entertain the idea of what op is talking about.

But I’m thinking of like Rolex, Cartier, Hermès, etc level of luxury. Maybe op is on a lower level then that.

I'm lost at how it accumulates to 500k. Has to be more then just "luxury items" OP thinking about running a drug cartel?

Depends on the level of luxury. High end designer stuff can get ridiculously expensive. This bag is $2k, and that's not even that high.

Could easily see hitting $500k if you have enough of the right product.

This.
A better scam than suckering rich *******s out of their money for luxury items and making a 500 K profit, is to sucker someone into investing into a get rich quick scheme.
