TheLugz88 Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 www.google.ca zzz i coulda done that -.-... Here's one effect. Retail goods are being stolen, prices have to go up to compensate. Consumers have to spend more money for soemthing that was cheaper. Consumers lose money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhh retail theft isn't that big of a problem to where people have to increase prices.. not to mention that retail stores can't regulate prices based on crime rates since the prices are pretty much regulated through the company headquarters.

iSh Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 not to mention that retail stores can't regulate prices based on crime rates since the prices are pretty much regulated through the company headquarters. So... why can't stores regulate based on crime rates if prices are regulated at company HQ based on the bottom line? If retail theft, however midly, affect the bottom line, it will affect prices too. any suggestions/ideas on wat the effects of retail theft on the community could be??? It mostly just annoys resellers and legitimate customers with the extra security put into place to stop shoplifting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
