Case: Changzhou Price Bureau imposed a fine of 5,000 yuan on the "high-priced rice porridge" merchants according to the upper limit.
Recently, a 38 yuan "Qingdao prawn" caused a heated discussion. In these two days, some netizens in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province reported that on June 8, 10, he ate a pot of "high-priced rice porridge" in a local porridge shop, and this pot of rice porridge also sold for 100 yuan. On the afternoon of 10, Changzhou Municipal Price Bureau made a penalty decision on this matter: the merchant was fined 5,000 yuan according to the upper limit.
Mr. Zhu told reporters that on the afternoon of the 8th, a family of five came to Li Yin Chaoshan porridge shop in Xinbei District, Changzhou, and ordered a large portion of casserole rice porridge at the suggestion of the waiter. What he didn't expect was that the price of rice porridge at checkout was 100 yuan.
"The porridge shop didn't tell us how much it was. This is obviously a massacre. " Later, he posted his experience online, which attracted the attention of netizens. Some netizens teased: 38 yuan, a prawn in Qingdao, "let go" of this pot of rice porridge without counting rice grains.
Ms. Wang, the person in charge of the porridge shop, believes that Mr. Zhu deliberately confused the concept when posting and regarded Chaoshan casserole porridge as ordinary white rice porridge.
Ms. Wang said that the rice porridge in her porridge shop is really worth the money. "There is a saying in our Chaoshan casserole porridge that one pot of porridge needs three pots of rice, that is, three to five pots of rice, which is different from the cooking method at home." Mr. Zhu said that the Chaoshan casserole porridge they ate was actually ordinary rice porridge without accessories.
Both sides hold their own words. But the reporter noticed that there was no casserole porridge on the menu of Chaoshan porridge shop in Li Yin.
According to Yu introduced by the Comprehensive Regulation Department of Changzhou Municipal Price Bureau, they immediately conducted an on-site investigation after receiving the report on the afternoon of June 8 10. After investigation and evidence collection, collective trial and other legal procedures, the bureau found that the porridge shop violated the regulations on clearly marked prices, and imposed an administrative penalty of 5,000 yuan on the merchant in accordance with the Price Law and the Regulations on Clearly Marked Prices of Goods, Services and Labor Services.
Yu said that in the process of investigation and handling, after policy explanation and criticism and education, the shopkeeper also recognized his own problems and actively cooperated with the investigation and handling, saying that he voluntarily returned the overcharged porridge 100 yuan.
At the same time, Yu also reminded operators that when providing goods and services, they should clearly mark the price according to the regulations, standardize their own price behavior, and let consumers clearly understand their consumption.
Consumers should also enhance their awareness of rights protection, take the initiative to ask about prices and consumption contents, and pay attention to keeping consumption vouchers such as invoices and documents, contact the price department in time to reflect price disputes, or keep evidence by taking photos, videos and recordings.
