Discussion: Adoptables, Resales and Additional Art

[kaiiju.livejournal.com]

I've seen a few comments pertaining to this scattered around, but I thought an actual discussion might be beneficial, since a lot of people seem to be offering/buying adoptables as of late.
I know a lot of people who will buy an adoptable for a flat rate and buy several pieces of art for it -- and then when they eventually lose interest in the adoptable itself, they turn around and resell it for an inflated price to cover the cost of the additional art that they bought for the design.

What's the general consensus on this, out of curiosity? I personally don't find it very kosher.
