Another price gouging sucking scum story. We need to remember this Amazon company name to boycott in the future. I would get a hide if I wrote what I actually think about this couple.
The couple were said to be trading on Amazon's marketplace platform under the name "Violeta & Sons trading ltd," according to the article. One listing was said to feature a CAD$20 (about $14.50) package of wipes being offered for CAD$89 (around $64.50).
Although a check of the account revealed no items listed at the time of writing, one review from Thursday remarked that the "seller cancelled my order the day before delivery only to put it back online and jack up the price."

(10,885 posts)3. For sure. Someone's always trying to make a buck on others' misfortune.
"gouging scum suckers" is one of the milder terms I'd use.

(7,605 posts)6. Was it actual Amazon or an Amazon reseller?

I'm having a difficult time attempting to find that product for you besides Amazon.
