I am completely against someone going out and screwing old people, but I do not believe this is the case with these guys. Sure they make a killer profit on some of this stuff, but think about what would happen to this stuff if they did not buy it. The old person would probably die and it would be thrown away as garbage or mass auctioned at low prices. These guys are at least giving these people cash money which they can actually use. You also must think about the time and money that is needed to sell these items after they purchase them.
