    A store cannot “charge whatever they want”. Chalie Hall got that part right, about how much a store may charge.

    As far as overcharging, a store can charge whatever they want

    Well, yes and no. The store can charge what they like, but if it’s over 1/6th, the customer may have recourse to recover the excess price in Bais Din.

    They aren’t permitted to overcharge in the first place. The recourse is if they broke that law.

    Fair enough. Thanks for the correction.

    I believe, you need to review Halacha.

    I started a new thread to continue that (off-topic) discussion:

    Ona'ah – Overcharging more than 1/6

    (Please continue it there.)

    Back to hiring Heimish: Please reconsider if you are in that position of hiring: All the positive reults of hiring a Yid! Parnossah is written in shomayim, no one can take away something that was destined for you to make.

    As far as me not knowing the halacha in overcharging. I admit I never learnt those Halachos, and since it doesn’t pertain to me, I probably won’t. I’ve just had the live and let live attitude until now. You can charge what you want and I can shop where I want.

    The halachos of ona’ah apply not only to a seller, but also to a buyer, so you should learn at least the basics.

    You can. It is called Bechira.

    Gavra: I’m sorry I don’t agree with you!! I am trying very hard to be a mamin with all my koach. I truly believe that everything that was destined for you to have, you will!! We are not IN CONTROL of everything!! There is a much higher authority!!
