PC Express (Katipunan): Strike Two?

Two posts ago, I listed PC Express (Katipunan) to be one of some stores that add a surcharge to credit card purchases. I don't remember very well if indeed they do, so correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyway, if so, here's their Strike Number Two.

They did not issue me a receipt for a purchase I made for a P110 item. Now I do not remember if the first time I purchased from them (when I used my credit card), if they issued an official receipt voluntarily or I had to ask them (I usually ask when the purchase is significant. I think my first purchase was... and that they added a surcharge because my bill amounted to an inexact amount... like P2067, which is 6% over P1950 - ah! I now remember buying a couple of things worth P1150 and P800.)

So I did not DEMAND a receipt. The thing is, THEY DID NOT PLAN TO ISSUE A RECEIPT IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Paging the Department of Trade and Industry!

But still, PC Express offers lower prices than that other company, Villman, which also adds a surcharge for credit card purchases. BUT STILL! Whether you're just a liar, or you're a murderer, you're still going to hell, baby!
