It's good because it places the power in the hands of the people and companies who actually make and sell those goods and allows them to set the price. Ideally, that's how it should work.

But that would be to the detriment of those making and selling the goods. If allowing people to buy as many as they want means the product sells out while only allowing 1 per person doesn't result in them all being sold out... they're clearly better off letting people buy as many as they want.

Are you suggesting that people wouldn't buy SNES Classic consoles at $79.99? We both know they'd completely sell out anyway. The only difference is that the only people getting them would be people who actually want them and not parasites, looking to make a buck off desperate parents/people.
