Certain products are being bought in bulk and sold online at ridiculous prices.
I had a message from ebay stating that it is against their rules to profit from emergencies such as the coronavirus outbreak and that listings would be removed and sellers' status might be downgraded. (This was a general message, not aimed at me.)
Yet they are still there in abundance.

People are stockpiling because others are doing the same. I understand that.
What I object to is someone selling hundreds of units of soap, paracetamol, hand gel etc on ebay

Clearly we have a highly educated population, right.
They voted for Brexit and the Tories, right 
It'll be the ones who voted for Corbyn who still feel dirty.
I put a post on here Friday morning predicting a mass Friday shopping panic,because the loons on sky now worried about ,showed o video of empty shops in Italy double underlining the fact they still had 3 weeks left of a lockdown, if a thicko like me could see the consequences of the clip ,why did the loons at sky produce it,they started it
IAWN, people are stockpiling because of the fear of catching this further down the line with more infected in public places, they do not want to go in them and increase risk,that more than the actual stuff is what it is about imo.
Buying a long term supply is actually pretty rational. Morally questionable perhaps, but rational. As is trying to make money out of the situation.
I did a huge Ocado order delivered Friday for my Mum who is living alone, in her 70s. I make no apologies for that.

times like these I doff my cap to those who are hands only for arris wiping,more loo roll for the rest of us
I texted her and said you need to order enough for at least 2 months, long life stuff like cans and cereal. She texted back can I have four bottles of Guinness and a wine stopper 
I spent nearly ah hour there waiting in the "virtual queue" with them, their policies re limited items and shopping now left outside are exemplary as a business.
for who,ve missed the loo roll boat,dockleave,s in season soon,all the oldies out there have done it as a kid,
Ocado is a very slick operation. I recommend anyone who uses them to save their future slot early by ordering something over £40. Anything, then edit the order close to the delivery date with what you actually want.
Don't get a dockleaf mixed up with a stinging nettle if wiping your aris.
not when your in the woods,up the hills and you,ve had an accident,any port in a storm, 
Not so good for when the teenage boys are off school and self isolating.
we,ve all got make sacrifices ,I,m prepared to use any loo paper in a crisis not just my normal brand with Maggie thatcher,s face on it
