I'm not fond of "flippers". For the most part they're not good for swimbait fishing.

^^^ this X 100,000,000

Flippers should take a long walk off a short cliff!

I've been amazed at how people in the swimbait world pull together to help someone in need. It's a brotherhood and sadly there are people who just want to make money off of a bait. I sold my extra gill for cost to someone who didn't get in on the pre order. I could of made profit on it by putting it on eBay but that's not my thing. I'm preaching to the choir though. People will continue to flip for money and not bat an eye.

I ended up selling it to a member here on BR. I do not see an issue with selling it for more than I bought it for. Its supply and demand. I don't see myself as a "flipper"; I dont buy large quantites

and sell them to make huge profit. If I can make a little extra cash, especially since I do not have a job, It seems probable to me.

Super annoying trend. Drives the cost way up, and it's why I was setting alarms etc for the gill drop while I was welding in a frozen hole on the side of a mountain- I knew I couldn't hang once the flip began. I really hate that. You've got guys who had no intention of fishing it lining up just to fleece those who did and I don't like that. It's fkn expensive enough! Go get a job if you need money lol

^^^ I very much agree. Especially that last line. I know if I didn't have a job I wouldn't be buying a $30 hudd gills,$300 reels, or a 1,000 kayak.

I understand the concept of supply and demand. I understand making a couple bucks off a hard to source bait. I can even understand buying a hard to source bait, fishing it and deciding it's not for you.

 

What I don't understand is your cavalier attitude while not having a job and buying a bait you had ZERO intentions to fish. That's beat man.

Me niether, and it's not what we're about here at Bass Resource. In fact, there are rules AGAINST this in our Flea Market.
