If it is brand new, then why did you buy it in the first place?

And frankly, citing some 600+ positive reviews, and then calling
someone a jackass because they wisely point out this deal is a rip-off
strongly suggests that either your reviews are rigged, or your
satisfied customers are idiots.

Most local homebrew shops will offer a steep discount if a customer
walks in and asks them to order such a toy.

If it is really a spare item you need to get rid of, then sell it at a
reasonable price.
