You're right that some players may not be able to source all of the resources they want at prices they can afford from both markets during a given round, but that's the tension. The only way someone could arrive at Case 1 is by adding to the rules. On your turn, you buy all you want from one market. You can't buy from both. "Choosing a market" is equivalent to buying from a market, knowing that you won't be allowed to buy from the other

Now you have overlooked the whole point of the map/rule: players can't buy from both markets in a turn. So the prices - and availability - of all the resources you need force you into some tough choices.
