What is wrong with doing that? If people are willing to buy his shoes at his price, I see nothing wrong with it. He has a 99.8% rating. I have never dealth with him, but I'm just curious as to why people feel he is doing something wrong.

You likely mis-read my post.

I said neither right nor wrong.

All I stated was that he buys the shoes from the JL outlet and sells on ebay.

Now regarding why some might feel that this is wrong - he charges about a 1000 percent markup, yes, one thousand percent markup, on many items.

He also clears out most of JL factory store's decent stuff, so there is not much left for anyone else. That's why people think it is "wrong."

I do not approve of the huge markups or clearing out a store's stock, but if that's his model, we just do not have to buy from him - there are plenty other places to buy JL on discount.
