scalpers aside, can you guys think of other industries where marking-up for the end-consumer from high demand right under your nose is a common business practice? Like not even at a set rate, just a green dollar amount in their eyes arbitrarily set. Housing market is the only other one that comes to mind. Even service industries like airfare have rapid price jumps but at least that's based on an algorithm.
It's like when the middle-man comes into the picture, they'll fuck with your wallet if the opportunity arises. It's such garbage practice, they should all be called out for it.
Can you imagine if the hospital urgent care randomly demands an extra $500 after hours because there are less physicians in the early morning?
fuck.right.off.
