TopicWhy does supply and demand exist?

For essential items like oil and food, I understand why supply and demand is a thing, especially during the pandemic where prices are extremely high, because people need them and are willing to pay more for them.

But nonessential items that only have a price tag because of it being "RARE!!" is extremely stupid. Why does Flintstones Surprise at Dinosaur Peak for NES need to be $1,000? I don't care if there's only 900 copies of the game, there's no emergency reason to buy it, so the price should stay at $30, if even that. Rarity is nothing more than fake value.

It should be us regulated that only essential items can have price adjustments based on supply and demand. All other items that are not essential should absolutely be a fixed price.
