The Free TV Advertising makes up for any money lost.
It's like that antiques program where they rush round buying stuff to resell.


There are two types of programs like this
i) the dealer selling the object knows the profit is going to charity
and therefore prices it at an unrealistically low value and/or foregoes
any profit himself
ii) where those not in the trade negotiate a best price and then usually
sell it on at a loss.
