It's not anything bad. Wholesale retailers in brick and mortar don't offer wholesale prices to consumers, many in fact won't even deal with them. They protect thier retailers by NOT offering deals to consumers, and leave that for the actual retail outlets.
This isn't much different. I think it would help clean out much of the part timers and hobbyists, from a business point of view, it makes sense, from a personal lets be buddies point of view it seems harsh.
I guess it boils down to if we're here to make money or make friends.
