Clubman. Are you on RDS PAYROLL?. 12 Bucks for a sambo is outrageous, No matter where it is.
No. You are obviously missing my point which is not to defend the RDS or the stallholder in this case but rather to point out some facts about retail prices and consumer behaviour in relation to them.Clubman. Are you on RDS PAYROLL?
That's a subjective value judgement. I would probably agree with it in general. Some would not and would willingly pay. Some would agree, still pay and just moan about it afterwards. Nobody is forced to pay such prices. Those that do do so of their own free will. I couldn't give a toss if somebody charged €50 for a ham and cheese sambo. Nobody is forcing anybody to buy it.12 Bucks for a sambo is outrageous, No matter where it is.
A €12 price tag for a sambo clearly displayed so that consumers can make an informed buying decision? No - that is not a rip-off but it is arguably a very high price for what you get if you choose of your own volition to make a purchase. But in this case there was also no price list on display according to the original poster so the retailer was in breach of the law which is a serious issue.So you agree it is rip off?

No - I didn't say that. I said:Clubman, Clear this up. It's only a rip off if the price is clearly stated?

How exactly do you define "overcharge" in a generalised way? Do you take the wholesale cost of the raw materials and add some fixed margin to cover overheads and profit and anything above that is overcharging? What is this magical formula?Can we conclude then, that a rip off is a rip off, regardless of whether the price is stated? i.e. any attempt to overcharge for goods or services is A RIP OFF!!!
