No, increased prices never “effectively” become an embargo. An embargo is no sales full stop. Selling a single Polo mint for $500000000000000000 is still not an embargo.

in fact at that price it become a status symbol, the manufacturer just need to make 1 sale. Or people will just travel to mexico to buy it cheap.
