A AURT RT I don't think you are an idiot. It was just a really odd situation set up by the admins. But I also don't think it is at all the seller's fault. Sure, it would be nice if they offered at least some of the currency back. I might have done so. But as no one had foreknowledge that much in advance, it's not like they went out to scam people.
I can definitely understand your frustration. Especially with not being able to resell for a lower price. (I would think the code would still have legitimate value, as the next window isn't open for a bit.) I just think it isn't fair to blame them. When it is really the fault of the way it was all set up. I hope you at least are enjoying the game despite the frustrating start.
