Ok, I THINK you're responding to something else I wrote above that,
maybe me saying Rachael and I could use our different work addresses
as shipping addresses to get around a one per household deal.
Certainly you're not saying that if I get in on a deal that's one
per household, then privately contract with another person at
another address to get in on the same deal, paying with their money
and having it shipped to their address, then at some time after that
pay them for the item which they then hand to me, is cheating?
If so, you would be saying this?
[Deal is one per household]
I buy one. Rachael can't. (That's ok)
I buy one. Rachael does as well, ships to work. (Not ok. Cheating)
Rachael's Dad buys one. Sells to me when he comes to town next.
(Not ok - also cheating?)
Surely not, Larry, champion of the rights of individuals to contract
with one another to do business?
I would have thought you would say it's cool for me to contract with
everyone in my apartment building to buy such and such deal.
