disgusting resale behavior happened after the Greencloud TOP PROVIDER CELEBRATION
Brother, I found a post while browsing a well-known VPS exchange forum in mainland China:
In order to prevent the poster from deleting the post, I save the screenshot.
I have roughly analyzed the content of the post, and there are the following key points:
- The person purchased four promotional machines from TOP PROVIDER CELEBRATION
https://hostloc.com/thread-975370-1-1.html
2222-HK Greencloud.1645773301
2222-JP Greencloud.1645542284
2222-SG Greencloud.1645757893
2222-LA Greencloud.1645773293
I think there is no problem in buying so much. People who have money also want to express their support for Greencloud with their actual behavior.
- But the act of taking up inventory and reselling it at a doubled price is disgusting.
The original price of the machine is $22.22 , which is equivalent to about 140 CNY, but the so-called "buyer" want to sale them at a one-time price over 260 CNY, which is about US$40.
Judging from the behavior of this buyer, it was not really bought and used, but it was obviously malicious hoarding and resale.
Do you need to deal with this behavior?
Comments
If no one buys it they won't do it again. If someone buys it, they considered it worth it. If someone pays what they think is appropriate for something, the only solution is clearly to build camps and round them up. The only way to stop capitalists is to commit a mass atrocity.
Go get em boys.
bro， that's so true
This is nothing new honestly. I think spartanhost deals were going for 3-4x of the yearly price. The insane virmach deals and the 8888 greencloud deals probably go for way more. Maybe 10x? 20x? I believe there was also some guy on LET who pretty much does this kinda reselling for a living. He resells all kinds of deals off LET, and even sells shit like google voice accounts.
can you replace this link https://hostloc.com/thread-975370-1-1.html
everyone in his thread saying he is an idiot and no one will buy from him.
suggest you post this after he finishes the resale
I hate this scalper. Same with Playstation 5 and Xbox scalper. The only way to stop it is don't buy from them and spread the word.
IMHO, allowing transfer of those special deals is too generous.
I hate the people who buy from the scalpers. They could put a stop to it all much faster.
I don't know if you were aware, but these scalpers pretty much bot all kinds of things. Sneakers, gpus, game consoles and anything that is worth flipping. People kept talking about shoe proxies a few years back in LET. They still exist, just the market got saturated and mature. Probably a lot of competition now, but still profitable.
I have so many things to say, but at the end of the day, it is not something we can control, when there's a will there's a way.
Just stop buying from them, missing a deal is not end of the world.
Fortunately I don't.
But if you do, this might help:
cool dawg
I had opportunity on this deal but I chose not to take it because I already have enough capacity.
Some people need to get a life and stop worrying about deals.
The goodness of LowEndBox network has been squeezing as much as possible from the smallest possible machines.
Nowadays people are grabbing too many machines while running bloated software (e.g. WordPress, DirectAdmin).
The end is nigh.
the solution is to prohibit transfer services for up to 60 days, such as domain registration
dude, that might work
That's a good idea.
And one more employed by HostHatch, charge a one time fee of around $10, or sth.
Frankly, few people would really miss chance of grabbing the ideal deal, and Service Transfer board is somewhat necessary, but selling with extra profit and purchasing these plans with sole purpose of reselling should not be tolerated.
latest news, this person's original post has been edited and can no longer be viewed, fortunately I took a screenshot.
Hope Greencloud might give some official solutions?Encourage? intolerable?
@NDTN
Let's take a look at the personal homepage of this scalpers. Judging from its recent posts, there have been many resale behaviors.
HostHatch additionally have a policy of not transferring for a month. It is called a "support ticket"
yes, but from the provider's perspective, this idea may not be profitable, because it can reduce the selling point
How do we go about defining the act of resale? There are other people on this forum who sell their vps below the purchase price, is this behavior also to be criticized?
They are not doing it to make money, because it is just a meal compared to the time and risk they have spent.
Greencloud please release more vps.
If we can buy it much easier,it would not be a question.
people from China seem to love GreenCloud for some reasons.
Nice network from china and unlock Netflix
dont lump legit resale behaviour together with shady scalping shitheads who dont know how to get a proper job.
Because resources are limited, value is generated
We will look into this, maybe we will charge a high fee for the 2nd or 3rd transfer request. The transfer/"push" requests recently requiring a lot of our staff's time too.
That way, we have a greater chance to get deals
Or perhaps a period of months before it can be transferred.
