Does it mean that the price can be set at will?
A few days ago, a man went to a seafood restaurant in Huidong, Guangdong Province to eat, and he ordered 4 dishes at random in the restaurant, and then found more than 1,100 yuan at the checkout, and the local market supervision bureau responded that the store clearly marked the price and there was no violation.
The man said that he and his friends went to a seafood restaurant in Shuangyue Bay, Huidong, Guangdong Province to eat that day, during which they ordered 4 dishes and some staple dishes, but found that the price was more than 1,100 at the checkout.
They questioned the restaurant's malicious behavior of ripping off customers, and after leaving the restaurant, they posted the incident online, which was subsequently reprinted by many media outlets.
As the matter continued to ferment, the owner of the restaurant noticed the matter and communicated with the man. The boss said that all their dishes are clearly priced, and there is no windfall profit.
But the man said that they asked the waiter for a menu at that time, and the waiter said no, so they ordered. And the man revealed that they ordered a white shellfish soup, flower snails, flower nails and flower crabs.
The man felt that the four dishes were not worth the price at all, and then the staff of the local city supervision bureau also went to the scene to investigate, and the staff told the media that all the goods in the store were clearly marked with prices, and there was no problem with the scales, so there was no illegal operation.
After seeing the menu posted by the man, some netizens questioned one of the dishes suspected to be a flower nail or a flower scale, and the unit price was marked in the menu as 168 yuan a catty. If it is a flower scale, 168 yuan a pound can also be explained, if it is a flower armor, it is difficult to imagine what kind of flower nail it is, worth 168 yuan a pound.
In fact, for many restaurants in scenic spots, there are inflated prices, and consumers also have a tacit attitude towards this, but 4 dishes cost more than 1,100 yuan, which is really too high.
And he is not a very high-end restaurant, just a restaurant similar to a food stall, and the man went to eat supper that day. Judging from the catering platform, the average price of this restaurant is 39 yuan per person, if you calculate according to this standard, the man took 27 people to eat that day.
In fact, looking at the group purchase packages of other stores, the most expensive is only three or four hundred yuan, combined with Huidong is a county town, what kind of confidence does it have, saying that the price of 1100 yuan is the normal price?
Or he does not have a false price, but he has the situation of inducing consumers to consume high, I believe that customers will definitely leave in a hurry after learning that 4 dishes cost 1100 yuan.
Looking at this restaurant from the catering platform, its rating is not high, only 3.9 points, I don't know if it is not usually a good business, in line with the attitude of being able to slaughter one is one, in the operation.
Hu said
The staff of the Municipal Supervision Bureau said that the restaurant clearly marked the price, so there is no behavior of ripping customers, does this mean that as long as the price is marked, we can set the price at will?
In my opinion, we have to look at this matter dialectically. For some goods that contain services, or mainly sell services, the price is inflated and clearly marked, and there is no behavior to induce consumers to buy, I think there is a certain reasonableness.
But for some food or daily necessities, is it debatable to inflate the price? For example, if I list a bowl of rice at 100 yuan per bowl, does this mean that it is reasonable?
Especially for restaurants in scenic spots, it is an inflated price, should we advocate this kind of behavior? Or should we promote restaurants that offer value for money and don't rip off customers?
