A comment on Amazon Is Quietly Eliminating List Prices. Parent comment
A product can be sold below this price, but not over it.
Restaurants get around this for something like mineral water by tacking on a "service charge" for opening the bottle and serving it to you in a glass.
An airport cafeteria tried to do the same but without the actual service - asked for Rs. 80 for a bottle with Rs. 20 price tag.
Some consumer went to court and the court fined the cafeteria some Rs. 10,000,000
