‘This is why families can’t afford presents’ people fume as ‘greedy’ man clears Morrisons shelves of toys for profit

A MAN has left shoppers fuming after he cleared the shelves of a cheap child’s toy to sell on for profit.

The young man is an Amazon FBA (Fulfilment by Amazon) seller and often hunts for discounted buys to then ship to Amazon in exchange for cash.

But the man’s recent video, which was shared on social media, led to him being branded ‘greedy’ and ‘disgusting’ by parents.

In the short clip, the man claimed to have hit the ‘jackpot’ when he spotted a shelf full of bargain buys in Morrisons.

Showing off his find online, the man said: “Here we go. Hit the absolute jackpot once again.”

The man managed to get his hands on the Lego Disney Frozen 2 set, as he added: “Cost price on these is £10.70.

“We're gonna whip that phone out and give it a quick scan. I already know these are a good one.”

As he showed a screenshot on his phone, he explained: “Selling at £24 on Amazon nearly 1,000 times a month. This is £6 profit.”

The shopper then nabbed a haul of the buys, as he cleared six boxes of the children’s sets from the shelves.

He continued: “Nearly 40 quid - one trip to Morrison's, five minutes down the road.

“Easy as that mate.” 

The man later wrote: “Less than half an hour to buy them and shove them in the box to Amazon.”

He also claimed: “This isn’t the only place we went to.” 

The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ace.arbitrage, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up a whopping 178,000 views.

Parents fume

But social media users were left fuming at the man’s actions - and many took to the comments to express this. 

One person said: “Disgusting. It’s people like this why Lego is so expensive.”

Another added: “Or leave them for families who could do with the bargain?” 

To this, the man clapped back and claimed: “It’s only one toy mate - another FBA seller will buy if we don't.” 

A third commented: “Greed.”

At the same time, another user simply penned: “Vulture.”

Meanwhile, someone else wrote: “Greed at its highest, struggling families keep struggling for his greed.” 

Another chimed in: “This is just nonsense. Oversaturated.”

Whilst another parent fumed: “People struggling to afford presents for kids thanks to people like you.”
