-Jackass buys 18,000 bottles of hand sanitizer to sell them for $70 a bottle during a shortage. Is banned from Amazon so now nobody can buy any of it

-Handful of retards hoard all the toilet paper, so now nobody can find any

What's the difference? If stores had adjusted prices appropriately neither of those things would have happened.




No.

If stores had restricted quantities that can be purchased by a single customer, this wouldn't be a problem.

Yep, also you do want to sell out of items to end users when those items are beneficial in a public health emergency.

You absolutely dont want to limit access to an item which may help mitigate the spread of the disease to the people who are likely to spread it.

I dont understand how someone can think this way.

It's about a 4 billion dollar a year market. This guy had about 100,000 dollars worth of this market.

He didn't come close to scratching the surface.

Don't want to sell out? Raise your price.
