Tesla captures that anyway unless you are suggesting a huge amount of purchaser remorse instead of people trying to sell a waiting list position at a profit..

I don't like Tesla but it is ridiculous to call a 1 year anti-scalping rule a profit scheme, at the end of the year, they would even have a slump based on remorse buyers liquidating which would hurt them more as they might actually have capacity then.

Manufacturers like Tesla create a shortage and sell to it. They want total control.

It’s not ridiculous at all. It’s standard business practice these days to literally create artificial exclusivity and capture as many dollars as possible from early customers.

We may just not see eye-to-eye but that’s ok. We can disagree and still be friends.
