  • Úvodná poznámka
    It is a misleading practice to mention two prices for the same good, while also simultaneously announcing significant reductions that are not effectively applied upon payment. A trader that is advertising discounts by using an expression such as "a discount up to 70% possible" should give discounts at this exact rate and not lower.
  • Skutkový stav
    The defendant, a trader, marked its goods with two prices. One of these goods had a price sheet with a price in the amount of 790 Slovak crowns, and another price in the amount of 590 Slovak crowns. This price sheet also mentioned that "a discount of up to 70% is possible". The inspectors bought this good and had to pay 590 Slovak crowns, which presented only a 25,3% discount.

    The conduct also concerned other goods of the trader.
