3@1 branch from another planet?

<p>I recently required 100 colour and 30 black/white pages printed and went to the 3@1 branch at N1 City. The next morning I required an additional 60 colour and 20 black/white of the same document and went to 3@1 in Plattekloof as the N1 City branch was still closed. I was upset to find that Plattekloof charged me R7.50 per colour page (if 50+) whilst N1 City charged R16.00 (no sliding scale for bulk numbers). On the 3@1 website there is a note that stores are individually owned, so products and services may vary. But that 2 stores only 4km from each other can charge fees that are on the opposite of the scale is shocking. It is **************** and a total rip-off in a country where people are already cash-strapped. I will never buy products or services from the N1 City branch again. </p>
