to be fair, the weeknd is not the only artist who is playing the game of "let's make it a little more expensive each time to see if people are still going to buy it" but he is definitely the one at the from of this trend. The fact so many people are trying to push 40 bucks for a record as the standard price is disgusting, let alone trying to sell one for 100.
BTW this release was meant to be limited at 1000 copies, but the minute they saw he could sell more, magically the word limited disappeared from the item description. Imagine paying so much for something for it not even to be exclusive (which I am not saying is OK, but it's the only justification I can think of). a SCAM.
