I feel the same way about the Wal-Marts of the world.  Quantity discounts are 
unfair and should be illegal under antitrust regulations.    Mom and Pop 
Hardware stores should be able to buy a hammer for resale at the same price 
Wally World does and then let them compete on the basis of their own decided 
markup and service.  It punishes the little guy.
