Storytime!
When I lived near Hollywood I would frequent a certain famous animation house with a mouse mascot's ice cream store. They sold LE pins of their various characters if you bought a certain sundae. When they previewed something that I knew would be profitable, I would go multiple times with friends/family and buy them the sundae, ensuring that I would have multiples of LE designs I could hawk on ebay/fb - some to make a quick buck and some to sit on to sell once their “set” was complete.
Smart? I'd say so! It was pretty low effort and earned me a pretty penny. Greedy? I see no point in denying it. I was hoarding things that had a finite supply near exclusively for profit, and I cared about $ more then I cared about others having a thing they wanted.
I don't understand why you can't imagine the possibility of being both. I know I was :3
