That may be so, but would Nintendo appreciate these kinds of unreasonable unofficial transactions? I'm certain that once Nintendo sees this kind of pattern, measures in the future will be taken to reduce this kind of activity.
Besides, if I was directing Nintendo's sales, I would rather have the products solely being sold by genuine retailers instead of eventually ending up in the hands of people who will exploit Nintendo's products like that. Nintendo isn't getting any additional profits from these unofficial sales and, if anything, it'll hurt the brand loyalty to the legitimate consumers. On top of that, would I really want to buy a New 3DS off of some guy over the internet? I'm not saying that this is always the case, but as far as I know, that guy would probably pull a kind of bait and switch to replace the 3DS with a 3DS box containing a brick inside of it. Sure, I know there are procedures I can follow to get my money back, but all it really does it waste my valuable time and I probably won't end up with a New 3DS right away.
Anyway, while there is nothing completely wrong with reselling goods (otherwise, yard sales and e-Bay will be considered illegal), is it really a good thing to buy goods only to just sell them off at absurdly high prices later?
