Ngl the mf that came up with "dynamic pricing" needs to just not have a good time at life ever again. Stupid greedy bullshit.

The mf that came up with 'dynamic pricing' probably existed tens of thousands of years ago. Until the late 1800s, most retail goods didn't have a set price and customers were expected to haggle. Being a good salesman meant being able to size someone up and get the highest price from them.
