	In Quebec, it's ILLEGAL not to price items for sale
	in any store. Not just for sales: all the time.
	Some cheapos try this to avoid having to confront
	they are not competitive or overpriced, or damn lazy.
	It's a law with teeth, too: consumers seem to be better
	protected in Quebec than most everywhere I know of.
	Premium items like Leica are very seldom loss leaders [ ! ]
	but MUST be priced in a non-equivocal way nonetheless.

	It seems this could be a thing to ask your lawmakers
	if such is not Law in your area.

	Bill is right: NEVER give a penny to such low grade "operations"!
