Remember you are not paying to cover the sellers cost. You are paying to pay the cost to replace his stock. Where is he going to get more?
I stand on my statement.
And I think the term "free market" applied to gouging is a bit of a stretch.

BTW...people don't have "stock", they aren't businesses, they don't pay taxes on profits. They buy everything up at a store, creating an artificial gap in supply, the flip it at an inflated price.

...but again, "free market".
