The owner of any business is entitled to sell his merchandise for whatever price he wants to. If his price is higher than his competitors, he'll sell less merchandise but that doesn't make him a 'ripoff artist'. A person invests millions of dollars in a business, has a tremendous overhead and decides for himself what the minimum profit is acceptable to him. You, as the customer decide who gives you the better deal and value and purchase from them. |
