I believe that the regs are VERY specific on what counts as a sale price. At first glance it would seem that they could be in breach of the code. No doubt if challenged there would be some complicated story about the price before Christmas having been some sort of promo ...    Pierre ZFP wrote: I ask because at a branch of well-known chain of mega sports superstore I came across something odd.  Before Christmas, I bought my son a pair of skis, price 178 euros.  They are really good so I thought that if they had been reduced in the sales I might get myself a pair. So, off I go to find find them with a big sign on them saying 'Soldes 189 euros! previously 399 !!'  It so happened I still had the original reciept with me and yup 178 euros! I was hoping for around 140 euros or less You could try reporting them to the Anti Fraud police. Or buy them elsewhere ... Regards Pickles    Report
