Who's Scalping Emic-2's?

This guy! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Audio-IC-Development-Tools-Emic2-Text-to-speech-module-/171608865378

He's charging $90 for a $60 Emic-2, flipping for 50% profit. I hope no one buys. I messaged the seller.

Well, he's also charging $6.08 + $6.99 shipping for a resistor (as in quantity 1) that's $1.61 on a Japanese site.

I see this more and more on ebay (and the local flea market), especially with Harbor Freight items. They charge double or triple the purchase price. Amazingly, they find plenty of customers.

One seller at the local flea market wanted $30.00 for a HF freebie meter... he had a stack of about 10 of them. Plus the tape measures, tarps, flashlights, etc.
