Goodness. Is that legal?

 

It wouldn't be in the UK or China, for that matter.

 

I'm not au fait with the details of China, but in the UK, goods must have been offered at only a higher price for a specified number of days before any 'sale' price can be advertised. The details of that prior price and dates must also be included in the advertisement.

 

Unless if they've changed it since I've stopped paying attention.

 

It shouldn't be legal! 

 

Well, the "list price" is really a made up number. The actual selling price is a different thing. Does the "list price" stuff come into play in UK?
