Is there an English term for those annoying pricing strategies where a company removes essential parts of a product to lower the marketed price, and then raises the price of the part they have removed to make customers pay even more?
For instance tonight I was booking a winter holiday, and I realized the company had achieved a competitive price by cutting down the usual baggage size of 23 kg to just 10 kg, and then forcing everyone to pay extra for what was now called "additional baggage".

@randahl@mastodon.social I think its found somewhere around chapter 3 in the Neoliberal Handbook.
