Because Amazon isn't grifting them for a larger profit.
It is illegal in most states to gouge prices more than 20% during a crisis.
Price gouge is illegal in a pandemic faggot.
>It is illegal in most states to gouge prices more than 20% during a crisis.
Meanwhile big pharma is charging $689 for $2 worth of insulin (34250% markup)
Because we worship corporations here
We fuck over our fellow man and praise Walmart
>>Because Amazon isn't grifting them for a larger profit.
Amazon literally adjusts prices automatically based on demand. The more something sells, the higher the price goes.
Not in his state.
People criticize this all the time. Bernie sanders is running a political campaign against practices like this. Even Trump and Biden have criticized the practiced and called for lower prices.
Stay salty faggot.
Its idiots like this that caused this panic buying.
They should hang his kike ass.
>noo you cant heckin charge what you want
Dude should have just burnt it all
Lets see them take him to court for doing what he wishes with his property
Calm down bros.
The guy said he was going to donate the stock for pretty princess internet points and the government made good on the promise
Not true, literally everyone hates big pharma corporate
He is from Tennessee, you bet your tender butthole they have price gouging laws. Why talk about what you don't know or even worse outright lie?
He wasn't providing a service or adding value to the marketplace, literally all he did was create artificial scarcity.
>literally everyone
90% of the republitards would deepthroat a dragon dildo for big pharma. NO UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE!!! Because that's communism
Meanwhile those same retards support communism like in OP pic. Disingenuous hypocrites.
>because politicians make good on their promises
>because offhand comments to get votes are promises
tard
How?
Nobody bought them before nor has reason to buy them
Trump did not declare an emergency while he sold
They will get him for the ones he already sold, not the ones he still had. Dude is getting charged, and, at the very least, will pay a huge fine but will probably skip jail time.
Stock up, empty the bottles into large vats.
Make "Coof Syrup" and fill the "sanitizers".
Spread the Chinese Corona like wildfire.
Again for what?
He sold when it was just a democrat hoax
Your argument is now the president was lying and endangered public health
>go to jail for selling items in the land of the freeTM
literal communism. Marx's wet dream
that does sound like a taking, should have imposed a forced sale at msrp, he gets his money back, the state gets a supply of sanitizers.
win-win
Its to set the precedent against preppers
Funny how it was sworn by qoomers Obama would do it
Go to jail for selling heroin, go to jail for price fixing and insider trading, go to jail for scalping and gouging your panicked countrymen. Sounds about right to me.
>literal
Into the trash your opinion goes Stacy.
In their defense it was always expensive so during a crises it remains expensive
>literal
Heh, I was almost forced to argue against his point, but he said a buzzword I don't like, phew.
>Go to jail for selling heroin, go to jail for price fixing and insider trading, go to jail for scalping and gouging your panicked countrymen. Sounds about right to me.
Oh no, selling hand sanitizer for 20% more than the going rate! Lock him up and take his goods!
>pharma sells drugs for 1000%+ manufacturing cost
Sounds good to me! Keep up the good work fellow law abiding citizens
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to spam bullshit about Trump using this to arrest the deepstate
It isn't my argument dude, just pointing out what I see. Also he started buying the day of the first death in America, we were all pretty past hoax at that point I hope. He might get off on the technicality that he didnt sell after the emergency was declared, but he was still attempting to sell after the state of emergency was declared in his state and then the country the following day. Had he taken his listings down he might have been in the clear, but amazon had to pull it and the attorney general had to slap him with a C&D. I can see both sides of the argument, but when someone starts doing this fuckery with medical shit, it is easier to demonize them for sure. He is getting called The Great Value Martin Shkreli, which I think is a very apt comparison. And troll all you want about the land of the free with your meme flag on, Shkreli is human scum who deserves to be rotting in a prison. This Colvin guy just deserves some internet shame, pizzas to his house, and a fine for being dumb enough to brag to the msm about the shady shit he was trying to pull.
There's stocking up and profiting because you have foresight... and then there's buying out several stores' worth of supplies just to gouge people on them.
Guess which this is, memefag
>if I don't agree with how a man conducts his business I should be allowed to steal all his shit
Land of the free
Literally isn't a buzzword you retard, it is a regular word that you use incorrectly, and I did argue against your point you fag.
He was selling $2 bottles of hand sanitizer for $70 you mong. A 20% markup would be $2.20, your math is way fucking off.
Which is less ideologically consistent: me thinking this dude AND big pharma suck huge dick and ruin good things for the rest of us, or you hating bug pharma but defending this asshole?

That would not surprise me in the least.
yes
>outsmart casuals
>get fucked for it
Ah, yes. Land of free.
>How come they dont raid an Amazon warehouse for hand sanitizers?
because daddy amazon takes care of me
i give him my credit card number and he gives me what i want
yay for big business!!! :D :D
>That would not surprise me in the least.
I was mocking you. As per the entire post.
>He was selling $2 bottles of hand sanitizer for $70 you mong. A 20% markup would be $2.20, your math is way fucking off.
Read the fucking article you idiot it WAS a 20% markup
He got robbed by uncle sam plain and simple
Amazon pulled before trump declared emergency
Ergo, he was clear
The real question is if hes a spook
I told you niggers report these people to the IRS and make some big boy bucks. Most likely these people are not paying taxes on this income.
> A 20% markup would be $2.20,
burger education on show right here
Cheeseburgernomics
Quote the article faggot. You dont make "crazy cash" driving across states in an SUV and paying shipping for a 20% mark up. He was selling between $8 and $70, he was selling the $1 bottles at the lowest markup of fucking 800% so cite your fucking sources mong.
According to multiple articles, Amazon didnt pull the account till Sunday.
The people responding to you are just brain dead contrarians. If National Socialists came to power half the board would convert to Judaism and the board would officially become about interracial cuckolding instead of politics.
Sad part is I am coasting through Dif EQ this semester. Algebra is for calculators and I stayed up all night playing vidya and am tired. Still, mother fucker wasnt buying stuff for $2 and selling it online for $2.40. It is really disingenuous to say so.
> A 20% markup would be $2.20,
We're done here. Better hop proxies
>try to kike your fellow man during a crisis
>get kiked instead
OHHHH NOOO BOO HOO MUH FREE MARKET SOMEONE THINK OF THE PARISITIC OPPORTUNISTS
t. europoor proves again how stupid eurotards are
Heh, I was almost forced to argue against his point, but he did his math wrong, phew.
Argue the point you hypocritical faggot.
> A 20% markup would be $2.20,
See
Who is looking for the out to the argument now? You really are a hypocrite my dude.
>being too retarded to do basic math
>worthy of arguing against
It's like captain of the debate team going up against a downie with a lisp. Further, if you want serious responses don't start off your sentences with insults. And you call me a hypocrite when you literally dismissed my argument because you didn't like a word. What kind of liberal faggot does that?
Content vs context. Know what I'm saying?
>SOURCE!!!

Only corporations are Free, We the People are just subjects
If he had offered the IRS a cut his get rich quick scheme would be running full steam
Neither is 'confiscating' it
>be morally reprehensible cunt and mass buy products everyone wants just so you can sell them to everyone else at a higher price during hard times
>not deserving what was coming to him
Neck yourself, degenerate. Stop making these shit threads, no one cares.
Good, not like he was in the factory making the sanitizer. He wanted to be a leech, and the real leeches sucked him dry.
>How come they dont raid an Amazon warehouse for hand sanitizers?
They will if things get bad enough, but the powerless come first.
>whataboutism
Insulin being sold at ludicrous markup is bad, that make crisis profiteering good? I imagine it was difficult for you to type that out while rubbing your hands together.
Nice theft of property there America. Tell me more about how you are not communistic again.
>It's like captain of the debate team going up against a downie with a lisp
Are you sure it isn't literally that? For real bro, drop that shit from your vocabulary. Figurative things need to be qualified, literal is the natural state.
>And you call me a hypocrite when you literally dismissed my argument because you didn't like a word.
You are unironically doing this over a 20 cent difference to avoid how completely wrong you were, and I called you our for your valley girl talk AND THEN addressed your point; the two aren't mutually exclusive, feel free to literally stay assblasted about it though.
One last thing, if insults stop you from giving serious responses, feel free to fuck off to Reddit or Tumblr you safe space faggot, Yas Forums is very obviously not for you.
>didn't read the source I gave which BTFOs his entire worthless argument
Shut the fuck up retard and go whine to somebody who cares. Enjoy your communist country
last reply
>whataboutism
Now THAT is a buzzword made up by kikes. Tell me how they're rubbing their hands together when they're being exposed instead of a small businessowner acting 100% in the confines of the law?
>false-dilemma
This guy is exhibiting kike behavior and so should be gassed with the rest of you.
>Shut the fuck up retard
See now I can't give a serious response cause I am a faggot whos panties get in a twist from words on my computer. Oh wait, that's you lol/
>I gave which BTFOs his entire worthless argument
I read the entire fucking article both before you posted it and after. It didn't validate a single thing you said. You could quote where it does, but that would be too much work wouldn't it? Mostly because what you claim isn't there at all.
Sweet, et that be your last post dude, take your L and walk. I don't often say this in sincerity, but seriously consider fucking off to Reddit, it seems like it would be more your speed.
