Thread 212878094

can anyone explain the discrepancy(real price in greece for items in stock is 60 euros since lidl plus offer lasted for 3 days) of 14 euros in their country?

>>212878094 (OP)
import tax?

>>212878094 (OP)
I don't know but I bought some 50% reduced scottish mussels in lidl this evening but scanned the original barcode by mistake and paid full price

>>212878238
reminder! the odds of mistakes are always stacked against the customer, the house always wins , steal and shoplift whenever you can from lidl and other big grocery store chains

>>212878164
greece is part of the EU the uk isnt why am i paying 60 euros for a toaster?

>>212878094 (OP)
>>212878349
you should've taken the bugpill
now you pay

>>212878704
I wouldn't care if everyone had to pay 60 euros but why does lidl single out Greece specifically?

>>212878915
Balkanlar fee

Probably because those goods have to be shipped in a more expensive manner to reach Greece as compared to other countries.

it's to make up for the fact that they need to hire more employees for stores in greece because every greek spends 50% of the day on a smoke break

>>212878094 (OP)
the moment I saw the thumbnail, I knew it was the greek poster

>>212879726
But at least it's permenanetly 50 there here it's 60 more expensive than everyone else

>>212879893
It's 44 and 39 euros with lidl plus discount in Cyprus

>>212882059
It's because Germans raise prices outside of Germany to make up for keeping prices low in their own country, that's why they always try to get rid of local competition. First they offer really low prices to drive other store chains to bankrupcy, then buy them up and then they raise prices. It's the same in Poland and any other country in Europe where German supermarket chains dominate

>>212878094 (OP)
Top one is in pounds but that still doesn't make up the difference so I dunno. It could be that they're trying to push a different product or availability issues or just whatever else entirely, especially with imported products like that it's hard to know. You could call lidl and ask them I guess and look into buying a different toaster.

>>212884273
I already have a toaster

>>212882599
They can't do that in Greece we already had a local cartel when they came, lidl only raised the prices around 2016 for prestige reasons

>>212878094 (OP)
39,99 + debts

>>212886329
I WILL KILL YOU

HERE IN GERMANY THE PRICES ARE OK OK?

>>212886485
Deal with it.

VAGABONDS AND ROBBERS

maybe we need to start building factories here instead of importing from hundreds of miles away? so that we stop wasting money on overpaid truck drivers and overpriced gasoline? greece being enslaved as usual

>>212878322
it's weird how greece stopped being white

>>212887472
but then you'd have to do manual labor it wouldn't keep you from being "enslaved" since you think that's "wage slavery"

>>212887472
these are all made in china not germoney

46*19/1.2*1.24=47.73
50-47.73=2.27
2.27 EUR more for transport csts from uk to greece (silvercrest has a american contact details so it comes from the west and uk is closer than greece)
pay debts

>>212878094 (OP)
why are you buying a toaster in 2025, they are obsolete technology

>>212878094 (OP)
Because they can.
Mabye the market for toasters in the UK is more competitive or there is more demand for toasters in Greece

>>212888652
the real permanent price of the items stock is 60euros stop defending commerce practices that abrogate EU laws, disband you entire money laundering country

>>212888697
what replaced them?

>>212889434
It's common practice in Greece to have items """on sale""" for 8 months a year. Whether for good or bad it is how consumers here are conditioned. And anyway a 20% difference in price isn't that unusual. It could be a ton of reasons for it, if Greece has any locally made toasters they're probably cheaper, that's how it usually goes.

>>212889434
post a link to the "real permanent price"

>>212889563
ITS IN THE PICTURE I POSTED lidl plus discounts only last for as long as the item is listed in the pamphlet

>>212889540
lidl plus discounts last for at best 5 days, its not natural to have 20% more expensive items than UK even if ceteris paribus

>>212889692
>no link
really makes me think

>>212889809
they removed it from the site like they do every thursday but all the toasters are still there in physical formed stacked on the shelf not a single one has been bought due to the exorbitant prices

>>212889723
it's 4.8% more and I explained why

>>212889858
>but but but
so the actual real price was 50 not 60

>>212889908
the actual price on the shelf is 60 the discount no longer exists im gonna take a picture on sunday when im gonna go again

Garbage thread, I regret reading it because of the OP's flag

>>212889950
skatenitis is worse

>>212889944

>>212878094 (OP)

>>212889434
>stop defending commerce practices that abrogate EU laws

>>212878094 (OP)
We are so poor and still get raped by these prices. It's so dire.

>>212890982

for starters, my dear koulidiot, the 3 day lidl plus discount is a fake discount, considering the units default prices anywhere else in europe are between 39-49 euros

>>212894373
thats 20 euros cheaper, and this 39.99 price will remain for as long as the stock lasts here its already 60 euros

>>212895610
i think i realize what they are doing, its the cartel..... i just checked vicko and skatenitis/the mart, kotsovolos, public, who are the main retailers of such products and the equivalent izzy/benroubi ,margarit products are all around 55-70euros

the game is rigged from the start.....how convenient that lidls price happens to be exactly the same as that of the cheapest available equivalent product
