NSTnation Some irresponsible sellers have taken to hiking up the prices of handsanitisers on e-commerce platforms Covid19

After receiving a complaint from a concerned citizen, the NST browsed several major e-commerce platforms and found there were many online sellers selling overpriced antibacterial sanitisers.

Online sellers took to putting in words like “Ready stock”, “99 per cent kills bacteria and virus” to attract buyers. Some buyers questioned the authenticity of the sanitisers since the number of face masks along with hand sanitisers have been low in stock at major supermarkets, pharmacies and drugstores.

The source added that if there was a ceiling price ruling for hand sanitisers, it will be easier for them to issue a notice to sellers to adhere to the law.
