For N95 masks? In what quantities?
Sorry, no. Was talking about the regular surgical ones.

No, 3 PLY. Everyday cost is $1.85 for 50 masks. The going price today $0.70 PER MASK!

Not sure what your point is. IDK if you’re intending to link to regular prices or current prices but those are $.75-1/mask
retail. You don't think HD makes .10 per mask? I got the number .60 from a quick google search. Even if they are $1 each this is 5x as much as retail. no this is not 50 for $1.85.

Those are N95 masks which are much more expensive, and yet it’s still less than $1/mask retail.
3 ply surgical masks were indeed about $1.50 for 50 masks.

And even with a list of excuses, if you need to give them to the feds you lost already.

In general I'm not a fan of restrictions on price gouging, but I'll make an exception for this guy...

Something tells me that a constitutional lawyer will tear this case to shreds and he won’t spend a day in jail.

Doesn’t change the fact that he’s a sicko, nor does it change the fact that it looks terrible for the community he lives in.

They didn't charge him for hoarding. They charged him for lying and assault (by coughing).

These 2 took place yesterday. They were there last week observing people buying masks from him. They had a truck there today & filled it up with masks.
(Far too many agents involved. They should don gowns & go help on the front lines)

the charges for price gouging are much less than lying to them and then coughing...

The coughing part remains to be seen. Did he purposely try to cough at them or did he just forget to cover his mouth ? He’s facing them because they’re talking to him.
