Concert tickets, Uber Eats, car dealerships, hotels, airline tickets, and car rentals all have one thing in common: extra fees that pop up in the purchasing process.
Paraphrasing from This Article
Few things are more frustrating than selecting a $55 concert ticket seat, only to end up paying $95+ after lists of fees, taxes, etc. It should be required for ALL pricing to include taxes and fees. It’s not just annoying, it’s a deceitful and unethical practice, tricking individuals into paying more than they likely wanted to.
In this proposed policy, vendors of any goods or services sold in the US must advertise their prices as “out the door” pricing. There will be no more surprise taxes, fees, or surcharges at checkout. If necessary, those costs must be included in the advertised sale price.
