What

Ya think

I paid £8.99 for an n95. Not much if it saves your life.

I just checked eBay and it doesn’t look like a ban since there are tons of these products currently for sale (although they are notorious for favoring certain Sellers). This is a dumb move on their part. Lots of ppl rely on delivery by mail.

What happend to capitalism?
