There is a lot of variation in the pricing of flowers in a small city, probably because regular vendors are expected to pay a kickback to the officials who are closely monitoring all activities.
A home owner, domain investor observed that the regular vendor was demanding Rs 110 for a pot, another vendor was selling the same flower pot to another customer in the same area for Rs 70 each, however he refused to sell to her.
At an exhibition the same flowers were available for Rs 80 per plant pot.
It clearly indicated that the bribe demanded by officials has become a major factor determining the prices of flower pots in small towns
