Probably never happened, but you get the idea.
When we were young, Shelby worked at a fru fru salon. they had a case of hairbrushes and other accessories. One day, she doubled the prices of all of the brushes... from $25 to $49.99 or something...

they sold very quickly. part of perception of value comes from the retail price. especially if the customer is not an expert in what they are buying.
