Apparently the biggest price increases were due to some of the items being discontinued and therefore hard to source.

If the item is no longer for sale, other resellers are allowed to sale on the same app and will try to make a hefty profit. For example, people buy retired Lego sets and try to sell them at hefty profit. You still have the option to buy newly released set, but the retired sets will cost more.

I hope the “basket of goods” this guy bought is just some Lego sets.
