> Mind you we checked and it is actually not legal to have no visible pricing.

Wouldn't raising awareness of the illegal activity be the easier thing to do?

It seems like the way to go is get someone to inspect the store. Each item with a pricing violation is up to $25 for the first twenty items, up to $50 for each item after capped at a total $2000[0]. Successive inspections can become even more costly.

I checked after I got back to my home country.. I don’t live there but it definitely didn’t make me want to go back.
