Overview
Price
disclosure is a basic consumer right. Price information that is
accurate, comparable, and meaningful is the fundamental tool that
consumers use to exercise their "clout" in the marketplace.
When basic consumer information is misleading, absent, random or not
in a form which can be compared, the consumers' power in the market
place is unfairly and needlessly compromised. When the consumer's
power or "choice" is compromised, the industry (retailer,
manufacturer, and advertiser) is then better able to take advantage
of the consumer. MASSPIRG supports accurate, comparable and
meaningful price disclosures.
