Weapon/Armor smiths have different supply/demand issues. The market supports thier charging 20+ cpu.
There's nothing wrong with charging 50k for a vehicle and there's nothing wrong with charging 30k for a vehicle. If supply and demand cause everyone to buy his first, then you're not ripping anyone off. When he runs out and people end up shelling out more for yours, well you didn't rip anyone off there either. The laws of S&D just supported your price.
What was wrong was that he heckled you. We make the best we can, determine our price and advertise it. The only judge we have to abide is the market as a whole. Not would-be Marxists who want to decide for you what the "affordable" or "right" price is.
