A bootleg kit that's supposedly rare, but scalpers manage to have available everytime someone (a fool willing to part with money) looks for it. Sold usually at a very high markup, around 300%, to sometimes 500% of the initial price point. Sometimes, even more.
Randall NotAFool: How much did you get that Supernova Wing Zero Custom Prelude?
Eugene GotFooled: Got it for $100, and it's the lowest price EVER, since it's more than $200 at ShopPay.
Randall NotAFool: That's too expensive. You've been scalped!
Eugene GotFooled: No. I got it because it's a Reyr Bootleg Gumpra. The seller said so.
Randall NotAFool: That's not rare. That thing is always available whenever a fool like you looks around for it. Scalpers never run out of it.
