Question

Factors exploiting consumers in the market place according to class 10​

Answer 1

The following are the reasons for consumer exploitation:

1. Illiteracy and Ignorance of the Consumer:

The majority of the population have less knowledge about the quality of a good and they are ignorant about it. Due to these weaknesses they are be-fooled.

2. Fatalism of Consumer:

Many consumers never analyze the quality of the good and the price. They feel whatever they get is a gift of god and at the best price.  

3. Compromising Attitude:

Many consumers easily let go complaints and issues. They don’t complain about it rather compromise with what they have.

4. Unrecorded Sales:

Many producers don’t give receipt or cash memo of what a consumer buys. Hence no case can be lodged against them. Consequently we are cheated and no one can save us.
