It's not wrong for businesses to make more money just like it's not wrong for Levi to charge whatever the hell he wants for his cards. What is wrong, however, is for Mastro to claim that the reason they charge for catalogs is because they simply want to weed out non-serious bidders. The reason they charge is, plain and simple, to make more cash. I'm sure it annoys them to have to send out catalogs to people that don't bid on their auctions. I also waste plenty of time interviewring potential clients for cases that I may never get. I can either charge a consulting fee or not. I choose not to. Mastro decided differently. End of story.
