buy things you don't want, and the price will go down!

Is this an Austrian Economics thread?

Demand increases price, so what you do is buy things until the price goes up, then sell it all at the new price.

Why wouldn't this work?

I guess don't buy food then and die faggot.

Because the market responds to everyone, not just you. If there was collusion enough between customers to do this, it would be detected by producers.

>>1382615
What if you just had so much money that no collusion was necessary?

Buy a bunch, price goes up 1%, sell

Increase in demand above expectation increases prices.

Computers have seen deflation even with increasing demand. Costs come down, competition is out there.

Don't be a cocksucking faggot and turn some stupid product into a big seller overnight. Don't make Old Navy graphic tees the new hot shit (looking at you, Kanye), or they will go up to $6 a shirt. You've been warned.

Price goes up 1% but when you bring all your useless product on the market, prices come down to stay competitive. Oh wait, except Amazon doesn't have to compete with some jackoff selling $3 million/year in product. So you'll have to cut prices and hope your costs are significantly lower...

Oh, and the whole wholesale vs. retail thing. You can buy shit for 30% of what stores sell at, all fucking day. Don't expect to make more than 15-20% net profit, though.
