Just look at Costco, certain items are always out stock even a new shipment is in. I think it was on the news a years ago when these Daigou would buy up all specific brand of this make up right before the store opens and some of them even fight each other for it. The store wasn't even open yet but they got in somehow. One even posted online he knows exactly when the shipment comes.

Here is a good read about it. Me personally every time o travel back I don't buy stuff or bring stuff back for friends and relatives. Of they want some they can buy it on their own. |
You're comparing buying hard to find items whilst abroad for friends n family, to buying up medical equipment to resell at a high markup for profit during a medical emergency and hysteria... Those are very different things
You suggested being a greedy asshole, then continue with you're not like that, you won't even help friends n fam buy regular goods, which is an asshole move as they'd be forced to buy said goods from a reseller
