Well I’m a bit puzzled. Did I just commit a faux pas?

Local farmers market posted on Facebook that there will be tamales and that they sell out rather quickly so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to get there early.

So I asked how much a dozen tamales were.

The company never responded and I got several rude comments from people who said that if I had to ask then I couldn’t afford them.

Over tamales!!!

Is it really wrong to ask for a price for an item?

I'd ask the same thing. I have no clue how much homemade tamales cost. And I am pretty damn sure that If I can plunk down $300-$400 on a grocery trip, I can afford homemade tamales. I still want to know how much they are before I buy.

Normally tamales are 10-15 a dozen. So I’m puzzled why they think I can’t afford it.

The whole thing is just weird and still the company never responded and told me the price. I even checked their Facebook page and their website hoping for a price and can’t find one.

Not rude at all. Everyone I know that sells tamales post their price per dozen.

That’s so weird. A lot of people here post tamales for sale on Facebook and they always list the price. Are people just supposed to throw money at them and see if it’s enough?

I would never do business with any one who failed to post prices. It would make me suspicious.

I paid like $8/dozen yesterday for some amazing ones.
