I agree with Vingster.
A person who had the great luck to be in the right place at the right time to snare a bargain isnt obligated IMO to replicate that bargain. I do however look poorly upon those who would buy and sell purely for profit as noted above.

Bargains often come about because the seller is in a big hurry to get cash and is willing to take a loss for a quick sale. By the same token we sometimes pay a premium because someone has exactly what we want at the time we want it, and its worth the bit extra for the instant gratification.

Swings and roundabouts.
