Fake price in shop title, is that considered as a scam attempt ?

[Jody222 174]

The Seller claims to sell at 500kk but the price is 599,999,999 which is nearer to 600kk than 500kk  I wonder if this can be reported....

No rule for this. Check all price before you buy anything :))

 no

[wolf0119 267]

It's in bad taste, but it doesn't break any rules

even though I don't know to what extent this can be considered a scam ...

[Namonaki 73]

No scam, even Steam, Sony and a ton of big companies use similar tricks

For example: Sale up to 80% ads. You come and see only 1 crap stuff is sale at 80% rate while the others are 10-20%

When price are clearly listed on the item it cannot be called scammed.

 

Only when you paid for something and did not get it or get something difference is called scam.

This is far from being a scam... @Jody222

Then the prices in the real world are all scam too?

[Einstrider 62]

just be sure you have a plenty of gold before you open a seller's shop... it might surprise you!

Honestly, I dont even read what a shop says.  I would rather everyone just say what level their items are (10x,11x,12x).. and if they are consumables, just say "sale" or "stuff" or "shop".  More visually pleasing and easier to find what youre looking for.  Half of shops say "FREE FREE FREE" and nothing is free so whatever.

Very common to see this with sun sheltons for 43kk it arrives there is 43,999,999

I just don't buy it, this to me is a lack of respect.

In real life consumer rights the valid price is that of the ad. If in the market shelf the price is 4.50 at the cashier when paying, it cannot be 5.00.
I think that in the game this type of ad is wrong, the seller is counting on the buyer's distraction.
There are people like me who have a small monitor and have visual difficulties. Numbers like 6.8 and 9 can be confused with the number zero.

thats why u must check/think before you click

[ForYeri 149]

scam and advertising are same,

but one has no delivery, 

 

item or service, if you pay and you got it, no matter how unhappy and how you feel 'scammed', you are not scammed..

 

what you need to say is not scam, you need to say 'unhealthy practice', or 'dirty tricks', or 'unethical business practice', or whatever,

whatever you say, still not scam or fraud,

 

or you ask GM open 'Sue Section',

work same like 'Report Section',

you can 'sue' whoever make unfair game practice.. LOL.

GM must make new law for you^^ rofl.

The thing is price on item is the same as price at the check out.

Your example is not related because the issue we have is ppl putting up the ads for lower price compare to their tag price on item. That is considered as false advertising in real life but many thing we do in game that is not the same in real life too such as punish someone for bad language.

[piabeta 138]

and when the person sells the item with wrong value ? I saw this case now on the forum and I think wrong the gm takes the item from those who bought and forces it to return since the error was who sold for lack of attention of it because you have to confirm the value before opening the store ...

 I'm not a friend of those who bought it !!

Well, they can say "Price before Tax, not false advertising."

Ask Americans and Canadians about it.

Your response has nothing to do with this topic. It is completely difference thing.

@Support In Brazil real life.
Ad price must be equal to the price charged at the cashier
This law exists in Brazil because many traders steal the consumer and make people pay much more for not checking prices.

I think google did not translate correctly what I said before.
