Is it considered immoral to buy something dirt cheap, then sell it for a profit?

Most people would say yes, especially if the product is more than the average price. So let's say there's a CD album being sold for $18 at most stores and websites. If I were to buy a few copies of the album off a legit website for $5 each, then sell them each for $20, would that be considered immoral?

But the REAL question is, is that if I were to buy a few copies of said CD, and sold it for LESS than the average price, say $12, would that still be immoral? Or is it a clever, win-win method to get some extra pocket cash? This way, whoever doing to selling would make a profit, and the person buying would get the product they wanted for a cheap price.


Keep in mind, it's all legit. No illegal copies are being bought or sold, all from legit websites.

Also, this is all hypothetical. ;-)
