Topic	Instead of Surge Pricing, how would you feel if Restaurants had Slump Pricing?
Rika_Furude 02/29/24 2:37:04 AM #20:	Glob posted... Why does it matter which price youre paying, as long as its clearly advertised and youve agreed to it? Either youre happy enough with the price and willing to pay for it, or youre not, in which case you dont eat there. Consider that youve walked into a store and their fancy digital displays show price right now, $5. You get to the front of the queue 10 minutes later (long queue and slack employees) and you say I want the $5 burger and they say sorry, its $10 now. That is a bait and switch, and false advertisement. the alternative is to display all pricing for all timeframes at all times. That isnt going to happen, and even if it did, it will be done either in fine print or in such as way as to maliciously confuse customers in an anti-consumer fashion im still not seeing a strong argument against regulation in this case <cite>Rika_Furude posted [p:979105572] in Instead of...
