A Chinese herb dispensary salesperson was found guilty today at Kowloon City Magistrates' Courts of contravening the Trade Descriptions Ordinance, and sentenced to 100 hours of community service.

 

Customs officers conducted an undercover test purchase at a Tsim Sha Tsui Chinese herb dispensary in March after receiving a complaint.

 

The salesperson intentionally avoided providing the unit price, misleading customers into believing that the price was measured in taels, when it was measured in maces.

 

The actual price was 10 times more than the customer expected.

 

The maximum penalty for the offence is a $500,000 fine and five years imprisonment.
