It's only too much profit if he can't sell it for that price. My wife buys and sells antiques and you wouldn't believe how much money she makes on the stuff she buys from garage sales, etc. It's a different money scale to be certain, but just because she got a good bargain on something doesn't mean she should limit her profit to make everyone feel ok....same could be said for Mike. If he can get it, good for him.
