I think when a person lists a music CD for such a price, that does tell you something about that person. Enough at least to judge only about that part of the character. Such people try to make (relatively) huge profit via selling VGM (even if it's just one CD). And they do make it harder sometimes for the "average joe" to get one's beloved CDs, although Teioh's statement definitely has some truth: "albums will show up for better prices if you wait long enough" (This is true for anything second-hand, not just CDs - I'm usually like that as well: Waiting, rather than paying more than I want/am able to).

This "price-pushing" or just asking for ridiculous amounts to me is as bad behaviour as buying CDs more than once only to speculate about a later drastical increase in value; intention is solely to make profit by selling them for more money when it goes OOP. Are those "asshole"-character traits? To me: Yes.

May "Nozomi-san" be a nice person still and otherwise a great seller? Sure.

Come on, not that again.

He certainly didn't mean it like you think he did:
