Max Power Member 381 Member For: 21y 26d Location: MENAI, NSW Posted 02/10/05 10:51 AM Share Posted 02/10/05 10:51 AM Pulled in to the Davies Rd BP at Padstow in Sydney that was showing ulp at 124.9. Thinking that the ultimate is 134.9, I realised after I started to fill that the ultimate was set at 139.9. WTF.Ive always paid no more than 10c for 98 than is stated for ulp and thought that the price is government regulated. Am I right or can servos charge what they like for 98 fuel?Arthur Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/20443-robbed-at-the-bowser/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phucknuckle VERY LARGE MEMBER Member 165 Member For: 20y 8m Location: Nthn NSW Posted 02/10/05 11:23 AM Share Posted 02/10/05 11:23 AM As a former Service Station owner.......all I can say is that it is common to make better profits from PULP than ULP.ULP is purchased by the masses....so most Servos will sell it at a competitive rate to draw in customers. There is no law stating that the price of PULP must be displayed on the Roadside Pricebaords (Unlike ULP)....and on long weekends when everyone is out and about......some operators see it as a good time to make extra money on thier premium products....especially when people dont look at the pump prices and there is no Price listed on the Priceboard.sh*t Happens...........just take more notice when filling up or make sure thier Premium Fuel Prices are listed on the Roadside Price Display.
