The problem of body kit on the part of sellers in the markets has existed for more than a decade. It is quite easy to point out an unfortunate mistake and restore justice. For this case, there is a checkweigher on the market. In a more difficult situation, you can contact the market administration.
Anything can happen in the market: for example, the seller deliberately overweight the buyer in order to get the maximum benefit. How to behave in this case, what to do?
Keep calm
If you bought any products, and then suddenly noticed that 200-300 grams are missing, or even more, do not rush to go back to shout and swear - you will hardly achieve anything with this. Market traders are a special people, it is difficult to argue with them. This is the case when accuracy is especially important.
Try to calm down and pull yourself together, because you have to prove your case. Be prepared for anything, but know that in this case the law is on your side.
Check weighing
By law, on the territory of each food market there must be a checkweigher with a corresponding inscription. They stand on a special table, everyone can use them if necessary. They are sealed and show the weight to the nearest gram. Find them and weigh the item you just bought.
If the body kit really has a place to be, try to turn into your allies those sellers who stand next to the control weights. They usually sell honestly, as their merchandise is slightly more expensive than others. This allows them not to lie to the buyer. Such a merchant can help you with further steps. He will tell you what to do, will act as a witness, although in principle such is not required. In such cases, moral support is also very important.
Solving the problem peacefully
Next, you need to go to the seller, who weighed it, and calmly inform him that an error has occurred and the purchase is missing a couple of cucumbers. Sellers do not like a scandal in front of their shop, this reflects badly on their reputation in front of other buyers. Therefore, if you were really deliberately deceived, you are guaranteed to be informed of the missing grams of the product or, in extreme cases, they will pick up the goods and return your money.
Market Director
In extreme cases, you can and should contact the market administration with a statement. It's good if the director finds out about the case. He will give a verbal or written order to restore order and punish the offender. The inspection by the market administration begins almost immediately. Traders know all this very well, so most likely they will prefer not to take matters to extremes. So try to sort it out in cold blood. You, too, do not need extra trouble.
