No, it is stupid. If not only for the fact that there WTP goes up at christmas because its fucking christmas. Any other time of the year they wouldnt stand for such a high premium. Retailers know this and of course its smart on there part to gouge the customer, but its stupid for the consumer to say "ok" and buy it anyway.

This argument is of course moot when you bring ebay into it though, since ebay is a bid system. Then you can have 1 system go for 1000, and another go for 200 within minutes of eachother. Thats individual choice.
