McDonald’s closed down? No worries. Random eBay sellers have got your back.
The panic shopping began with public’s surge towards toilet papers, then hand sanitizers, and now it has officially taken a weird turn. An eBay seller listed a Big Mac on their eBay account and started a bidding war. The “Big Mac” which looks like a scene straight out of a horror movie appears to have rotten lettuce and is accompanied by its original packaging as well as the receipt. With 11 bids, the Big Mac was sold for thirteen pounds.
Even though this might be a joke, however, for the past couple of weeks, many corporations and third-party sellers have been gouging the prices of products which they know the public will ultimately need and give in to the overpriced numbers.
Taking advantage of vulnerable people amid a public health crisis is inhumane. For as long as the Coronavirus lasts, our efforts should go hand in hand (no pun intended) in order to ensure everyone’ wellbeing.
If you get bored during the quarantine, instead of buying old Big Macs, you can now watch free broadway musicals.
