A person is "shkrelied" when they have to pay an outrageously jacked-up price for something that they want or need because of the unbridled greed of the seller. Refers to pharma-bro Martin Shkreli, CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals, who raised the price of a life-saving cancer drug by 5000%.

Getting Shkrelied (named after "Pharma bro" Martin Shkreli) is used when karma kicks in and someone gets paid in full for all the evil stuff they've done. The term works best when the person that karma is repaying is a greedy asshat.

Man, I was gonna buy that guy's couch for $20, but when I got there he shkreli'd me and said I'd have to pay $500!

"My god, your underwear smells like a dying crab!"
