6.The earlier approach of CAVEAT EMPTOR, which means “Let the buyer beware”, has
ReplyDeletenow been changed to CAVEAT VENDITOR(“Let the seller beware”).Why such a radical change has taken place?
this change has taken place due to increased competition .Now consumers have wider choice and they can shift to some other vendor if they feel that they are cheated or getting bad quality product. For Example : Chemist selling you medicines will ensure that they are not expired before giving it to you. You may or may not check it but chemist knows that he will loose his customer if he is not aware.
