      That’s about a customer buying a product, that the seller is not allowed to tell the buyer no.

      The comic is about a buyer not being allowed to say no to a seller, the opposite.

        further more, it seems from the translated article it’s exclusive to large items and refusal due to price difference. It says nothing about refusal for sale due to other means. I was skeptical of it as well because shops should be allowed to refuse sale if they choose to (with exceptions ofc)

        Like what shop is going to authorize someone coming in and wiping the shelf clean of all of an item listed, it’s bad buisness because others will see it’s empty and say “well I guess I won’t shop here for that”

        We ran into that issue with resellers during the pandemic so had to impose buying restrictions.

        Just read the law. The article is just an example. The law would say something about public oferte and it isn’t important what exactly services you provide. If you sell something then you should sell it in indiscriminatory way. Buy? The same approach.
