We're buying in wholesale quantity, so why shouldn't we be entitled to that pricing structure? It isn't that they've decided not to sell to homebrewers anymore at all. Which in that case it would make sense. It's that basically the same services and products that we were able to get a week ago, have all of the sudden jumped in price by 35% for no reason other than to bang homebrewers for some extra cash. Im pretty sure there's no way some of the smaller homebrew shops go through 126 bags of grain in a month. Just a thought.
No one is entitled to any price. This isn't communism. The seller can set whatever price they want. We can choose to pay that price or find an alternative.
If they find a mechanism for price discrimination (and thus extract more surplus from the demand curve), good for them.
