My understanding is that he was ripping off tourists who did not understand the value of US money and thought they were paying the same market price as the other customers.
He is a con artist.
Exactamundo. This case is a bit like the $6 a gallon gas station scam by the Orlando airport. Ripping off tourists is not “capitalism”. It’s thievery and bad for a the image of a city.

I bet he asked the tourists for the money after they had the dog, pressuring them.
having been in the same situation overseas in a country where i felt like a stranger, didn't speak the language and couldn't really figure out what stuff costs, i agree, the guy is a con artist and should be busted.
