    He should donate them to the local hospitals. Healthcare workers are facing shortages. He appears to of already made a lot of money buying price gouging.https://twitter.com/theJeremyVine/status/1238804724188618754 …

    Absolutely bizarre situation. This bloke stocked up on hand gels and masks to sell at inflated prices. After a crackdown by Amazon and ebay he can't trade. So he is now sitting on 17,700 hand gel bottles and facing bankruptcy. People need them, he can't sell them. 📰@nytimes pic.twitter.com/objGRWH5pq

        A guy who is okay with price gouging in a crisis isn't the kind of person to give anything away for free.

        The Italian penal code punishes this behavior with 6 months to 3 years of jail, plus a fine between 516 and 25822 euros, plus immediate forced sale of the wares. (article 501-bis)

        Nobody who thinks this was ok in the first place is donating anything.

        Here in France, Macron passed a law dictating the maximum prices for hand sanitizer (50ml bottle is capped at €2, 100ml at €3, 300ml at €5 etc.)--in effect through end of May. Get on it, Trump.

        I don’t understand his mentality. Why can’t he just sell these at normal prices I’d he doesn’t want to donate/needs to make some $ back?! This sounds like he wants to price gauge or bust? What

        he should have them confiscated and redistributed to area hospitals. he is part of the reason they are short in the first place.
