the consumer will pay for that if they're really desperate. people can profit from a panic when supplies are low which isn't good for some.

Perhaps to dissuade the average person from panic buying a mask that won't help them all that much so that masks are available for the medical workers who need them.

Its the best way to ration for the rich.
Last I checked John Rockafeller wasn't running around town looking for masks to buy 200 of at a time. It is panicky normal people. And $95 a pop is unreasonable, but so is the panic. It forces some sober thought processes into buying stupid amounts of masks.

...or the store could just set a limit on purchases. You know, something they do all the time.
Which never works, and then hucksters will sell them outside in the parking lot for $95.

Exactly. Supply and demand.
