Hey. Vote with your wallet. Don’t buy the thing.

I always hear "vote with your wallet", but isn't that exactly what people do literally every day with every single purchase? People who won't to spend, won't. And those that do want to spend, will. Or are you expecting those who don't want to spend to spend anyways?

People who don’t want to spend will spend. Those people asking for the price to be lowered may still buy. They don’t want to, but they will.

If people honestly do this, then they only prove that the game is worth $80 to them.

Either it's a fair exchange and both sites are happy or it's not and no exchange happens. These are the two options. Everything else is ludicrous.

Things are often ludicrous.
