Hi

I was looking to buy Lego Mindstorms Ev3. 

On amazon & offical site it costs $350 (~QR 1275).

I went to toys r us, I was shocked to see the same item for QR 3000

Not only there, Somewhere here in the forum it says it costs around QR 3000 from other dealers too.

Why such a huge difference, You can get that through aramex shipping for a total of QR 1600. (only around QR 250 for shipping) 

Isn't there any control over the prices these people can put on their products?

We cant blame them too, they want to pay high rent for their shops?

What kind of system is this? Customers are basically paying the rent by purchasing everything for almost double price.

btw on uncertainity of quality of product, if you use paypal for payment you have options; you are raise a dispute, if any issue arises. You can get refund, or replace the faulty item.
