India Spice Corner — Local services in Melbourne

Edit: 12/12/2023: Still one of the most expensive Indian grocers in the vicinity. I purchased 3 items recently (Dec' 23) and they costed $56, which I thought was a lot for those three. Once I reached home, I found another grocer with an online store to compare the prices and those 3 exact same items at that grocer would have costed me $38. I only go to this store out of necessity when I am in rush as this store is the one nearest to where I live. Original Review:

This was my go to store for quite some time and I loved interacting with the shop owner but now during COVID times, I have noticed that some of the prices have gone up significantly. E.g. I was able to buy 20 Kgs of rice over $20 dollars cheaper elsewhere. I also noticed that some other commodities like paneer also had ridiculous price increase here.

Initially I thought that the supplier might have increased the prices because of many factors impacted by COVID but then when I looked at other stores, they were still much cheaper compared with this store so looks like that this store decided to make use of "price gouging" practices. I have since started to order from...

Every thing is slightly more expensive than a normal indian store, they have no customerservice skills, had to buy an extra thing because by bill was short 10 c of the minimum card payment, I was never informed that the bag is extra good for someone thing in emergency buy won't recommend to buy the weekly...

Wide variety of products available, Disappointed to discover that prices were not clearly marked on the shelves. led to an unpleasant surprise at the checkout, where I found that my samosa and 2 biscuits purchases reached $30.

I hope these stores will consider implementing this change...
