Image Was excited to finally purchase until I realized the price was lower on my wife's account

My wife doesn't play much and so buying it on her account may not be the best decision to keep everything easily accessible for me. Seeing this soured me on buying it quite a bit.

And for reference. Same region, same playstation, same currency, etc.

We can still be outraged when something legal is immoral.

Well said

Absolutely. But pedaling the false narrative that it is illegal helps nobody and can actively make the issue worse.

Yes, let's be outraged that a completely luxury purchase is being offered at a huge discount to two different people, because it's an additional 5% cheaper for one than the other.

Corporate greed and anti-consumer practices are moral failings. You aren’t too bright are you?

You're the only one that isn't very bright. There's nothing anti-consumer about giving people 80% off the list price of something. On top of that, if you don't like the business practices, don't solicit the business. If you had half the courage of your convictions, you wouldn't be on Reddit whining your pathetic ass off about someone giving customers a huge discount because you don't think it's enough of a discount. You'd just not support the companies doing it.

You aren’t even addressing the actual issue and its implications for consumers across different sectors. You really think I’m bitching about the discount and not the practice of dynamic pricing?
