As a matter of fact people are indeed buying too much shit, no matter how overpriced things are. Leading to more overpriced things because people are buying anyway (and then maybe complain about it).

I fully agree, these pricing tactics are scummy af, but the dude is right: stop buying everything and/or buy used.
