Yes, they are embarrassing to put it lightly.
I recently sold my RTX 3080 which is notorious for attracting scalpers. Retail price is just below 1k and auctions go as high up as 3k. I really wanted to counter this trend so I sold mine for 850 bucks, which made a lot of people message me about what a "fantastic bargain" it was. I just put up a price that felt reasonable, it wasn't supposed to be cheap or anything. It really put in perspective how shameless most sellers are in maximizing their profit. There's like 0 thought of giving another human being a pleasant experience.
