Yesssss let's make sure small business owners get sued into oblivion because we don't like their prices hell yeah your Amazon package was delivered today my good sir

Being a small town business doesn't automatically make you a saint. They still need to follow the rules they signed up for.

It is in Europe. The advertised ‘from’ price must be the lowest price of the last 30 days.

[–] LordKitsuna@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Which is why the price starts raising a couple months before stuff like this. So it looks like a real sale, it should really be the lowest advertised price over the last year

I live in Europe, but my country is not part of the EU. That's probably EU regulations/laws.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

This happens all the time in the US.
