Morality, ethics, steals and deals of collecting

[Joshie]

The argument here should be who needs it more. Look at it from this point of view: you're with someone who's just beginning to collect, while you have over 1000 games. You guys spot a huge lot of games including Final Fantasy 1-3 (US), Earthbound, Super Mario RPG, Final Fantasy VII-IX, Chrono Trigger, Breath of Fire I & II, Lufia I & II, Super Metroid, Castlevania I-IV, and Zelda 1-3. You spot it first, and ask the seller the price. He says $60, which would be a steal for that lot. While you want that deal badly, you already own a bunch of other games. The right thing to do here would be to grab your friend and ask if he wants it.

Or you buy the lot yourself, take what you need in your collection, and give him the rest as a gift. I do not see any bad karma in that situation!
