profiteering has nothing to do with "using unethical means". It is simply making excessive profits on goods in short supply. This is more like market collusion.

Damned if they do. Damned if they don't. We do all remember how we felt when we saw the price point of $29,990, don't we?
At $43,000 with aero package the car is still amazing value. I'd rather it costs $3,000 on to for the option than the car be $1,500 more with $1,500 for the option. |

Where would you rather live?? Sometimes we do pay a premium to live in Aus... I think it is worth it so I pay it.

because "ripping blind for the same shit", in your words, is what TMCA are doing with the aero kit. @mikedsilva .... Sure... we pay a premium for some things, yes, but there is no reason to pay double for a bodykit.... You think it is worth paying double for? |
