Comment: On A similar issue... tsunamirelief.com

a former classmate of mine, named Josh, bought tsunamirelief.com, the day the tsunami hit SriLanka and surrounding nations. He attempted to sell it for $50,000. The international media caught on to the story and shamed him into selling at a more fair price (actually I think he gave it away)

External pressure is also free market
