First World ProblemsOnemunki says: We live in a world of genuine tragedy, starvation and terror. So, after hearing stories of cruise line passengers complaining at the air conditioning breaking down, what stories of sheer single-minded self-pity get your goat?

I know what you meanIt's annoying, but that's what the free market is. Companies exist in order to make money - not to supply you with products and services. Therefore they will charge whatever price they think they can get away with.
If a product costs twice the price in Shop A as it does in Shop B - and Shop A remains in business, then that obviously means that there are enough people who are either too stupid, or who do not have enough time, to shop around for the best deal.
Ultimately the reason why prices vary so greatly in a free market is because not everyone shops around for the best price.
