Having decided to buy a classic rock album issued in 1986 by Metallica, I decided to browse through some record stores in Valletta. I found the album concerned available in all the stores retailing at €20. Before buying, I decided that I would better have a quick online search.

In fact, on the internet I noted that the same Compact Disc is available online for €11.99.

Can anyone out there explain the price difference?

Of course, this is not only limited to records but to almost every object consumed by the Maltese costumer.

While people who have access to the internet need not worry, can we say the same for all those who are not computer literate?
