Well, sure, it was pretty dumb to ask for inflated prices for items that
are still available much cheaper, but then again - only even dumber people
would fall for that, so in the end there was no real harm done. And of
course, you can hate anybody you'd like to hate, but don't you think it is
a bit unfair to blame a guy for trying to take advantage of a situation
that he's not responsible for in the first place? After all, the
limitation of any given item and the resulting price markup is at the label
people's discretion, isn't it? And for them it's also just a marketing
tool that helps them to make a buck.
CU,
Locke
