Default This thread is ridiculous

This entire thread makes me laugh. This is simple economics. In a tourist economy, there is no true "price point". The price is whatever the buyer is willing to pay to receive a good or service. If tourists are willing to pay 500 pesos for something that a Dominican is only willing to pay 200 pesos for, then it is an acceptable price. This becomes even more true in a bargainning economy like the DR. If you are offended by the price you are given, ask for a lower price. That's part of the fun of the tourist experience!
