you can't blame someone for trying to make a buck, especially in these tough times. But a 300% profit margin? Methinks not.

Exactly. It's not reselling at a profit that gets me, it's the ridiculous price points. I wouldn't have blinked at $1400 or so, and I could even understand wishful thinking up to $1800- but $2400? That's Chicago Music Exchange territory. :P
