It has been suggested that the Dinomatron shortage was a conspiracy to drive up prices, but I disagree. First of all, no one could have predicted the immense popularity of this toy. Just last year, a very similar dinosaur-building kit was ignored by shoppers. Second, severe winter weather all along the East Coast led to shipping delays, contributing to the shortage. Could someone have conspired to create bad weather? I don't think so. The Dinomatron price increase was the natural result of supply and demand economics. During the busy holiday shopping season, weather prevented toy stores from receiving enough toys to fill demand. Therefore, they became more valuable. Which of these is the author's claim? A. Could someone have conspired to creat bad weather?

B. The Dinomatron shortage was a conspiracy to drive up prices.

C. Similar dinosaur-building kit was ignored by shoppers.

D. Price increase was the natural result of supply and demand economics.
