Yeah normally I would feel the same way about this FOMO style of marketing but normally in that case it's the company selling it deciding to like remove it from sale to create the FOMO need. In the case it's another company basically forcing this decision on them so I don't think it's bad to let people buy it for cheaper while they still can.
