Perhaps years after the event, there's a time to sell off something that someone else might want more than you, but to do so immediately after the event smacks of the uglier side of capitalism (and yes, I am unapologetically a capitalist, until someone can find me a system that works better in the real world. No this is not an invitation to discuss world economics). It would definitely discourage me from making and giving nice things, if I knew my "friends" were immediately running to Ebay to sell them!
