Full Throttle 08/29/17 11:50:32 PM #1:	Do you think what best buy did was "fair"? Yes. it's capitalism and there's obviously big demand on limited supply. What they did was fair game No. this is disgusting and companies that take advantage of price gouging in crisis should be ashamed View Results A Best Buy in Texas is facing harsh criticism after a journalist took a picture of them selling bottled water for $42, nearly TRIPLE the normal price!! The electronic store was selling the bottled waters at an excessive price gouging as twitter users were outraged. A 24 pack Dassani water at 500ml is priced jut above $15.50 and another sign showed a case of Smarwater selling at $29 with a sign noting there was "limited supply" Twitter users have blasted the company that normally doesn't sell water and is taking advantage of residents hit by Hurricane Harvey who are struggling to endure the effects of the natural disaster A BB representative said the pricing was a "big mistake" and that an employee erroneously priced the entire case of water by multiplying the price of a single bottle. They said "As a company we are focused on helping, not hurting affected people". Klippenstein, who took the photo said this isn't the first time that the store was accused of price gouging as Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said they received hundreds of complaints about their price gouging. He said he promised to crack down on false pricing during the crisis and warns businesses would be slapped a $20,000 fine if they do. Do you think it's "fair" what Best Buy did?
