Hi everyone

Does anyone know what the rules and regulations are for pricing in shops , we've been in to the idea shop on pinatar park and when the item I wanted to buy was scanned at the till it came up with a price I was happy with then the girl said no and tried charging much much more , it's happening qui...

...te a few times to non Spanish in quite a few shops , druni is also guilty of this , is there a body this can be reported to as I'm getting fed up with being "mugged" once a week by various shops , this last time in the idea shop the man who was working there actually said you British want everything free , I just wanted to buy a cushion at the price it said it was on their till system not the made up price , it's humiliating to say the least

I will now avoid this shop and druni at all costs and advise everyone else to double check what they are charged at the till if shopping there

It does require the ability to read a label, somewhat beyond a few? The pricing is in different amounts for each country, so the price you should look for is the ES one.

They are a multinational company.

I've shopped at Idea on numerous occasions and have never had a problem with pricing. If you pick up an item that has a price on it and they try and charge you more, then ask why this is and then either put the item down and leave or ask for an "hoja de reclamación". It's unnecessary to "name an...

...d shame", on a public forum, a company that in your opinion, is trying to rip you off. If you can prove your accusation then fine but if not, making possible libellous comments on a public forum could end up badly for you!

I for one am appreciative of Marie sharing her actual experience, it`s hardly libellous if it happened to her.....
