If your goods are marked up by a ridiculous margin over the real market value (I'm loooing at you, glamour prisms) and I can still make a profit undercutting by 30% or more, you can be damned well sure that I'm gonna. Competition driving prices down is a good thing. Likewise for flipping goods that are selling below their RMV.
If it's real scumbag practices you're after, let's talk about how market manipulation can result in one greedy rich bigger buying up a commodity to clean out the marketboard only to mark them up upon relisting them (see: tier IV materia). Pure profit at the expense of consumers.
