I know people in many different fields in different aspects of business and the goal of any business is profit not to feel good about things at the end of the day. Is it unethical for a mechanic to charge someone who knows nothing about cars 500 bucks for a brake job, or is unethical for a computer repairman to charge $300 for a simple ten minute fix, or how about a bank to accept a gold coin and pay the person exchanging it face value? The list could go on and on. The BBB is a joke they have no real authority and any business that pays up it's fee's to be a member will receive high marks and have complaints removed. Is it ethical that these things occur in business it depends on the persons definition and what they find moral or not, some people have no trouble doing these types of things on a daily basis without a second thought. Just because somethings happen and leave people's feelings hurt because they overpaid, undersold, etc it doesn't usually make it a crime in anyway and you'd be hard pressed to find something like this actually illegal and a D.A. willing to waste tax payers money and try and prosecute a case of this type.[/QUOTE]
