Scalping

These days, scalping is regarded as a problem in Japan. For example, when PlayStation5 was available, some people hoarded and resale at a high price. Other than that, concert tickets, masks, sanitizers, or anime goods became a target. I think reselling is harmful because it prevents those who really want to buy it at a legitimate price.

Not sure which word you want, but I suggest either Touting or Bulk Buying

Thank you so much!

I realised now, scalping is a word - my apologies, its just not a common word at all. (I recently read about it in the new myself).

So - it was correct!

But - I would suggest adding in a sentence to describe what it means. "Scalping, which is where computer programmes automatically buy desired item, is a real problem in Japan"
