The answer will depend on how accurately you can define the markets, and 
after that how easy it is to determine what market a buyer belongs to.

For example, if the markets allowed for such items are "law enforcement 
and registered security professionals" it'll be easier for the vendor 
than if it's "persons without a criminal record".
