<div style="margin:0;font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;line-height:140%;font-size:12px;color:#000000;"><div dir="rtl"><strong>ה:</strong> וכן אסור לערב מעט פרות רעים בהרבה פרות יפים כדי למכרם בחזקת יפים, או לערב משקה רע ביפה. ואם היה טעמו נכר, מתר לערב, כי הלוקח ירגיש</div>
<p>Similarly, it is forbidden to mix a few bad fruits with many good fruits in to order to sell them under the presumption of [them all being] good, or to mix some bad drink with good.</p>
<p>However, if [the few bad fruits' or the bad drink] taste was obvious it’s allowed to mix, because the buyer will notice.</p>
<hr />The first paragraph is the same as <a title="Aspaqlaria: QSA 62:4" href="http://www.aishdas.org/asp/2009/08/qsa-62-4.shtml">the previous law</a>, that one can’t doctor merchandise to sell it under false pretenses. This last clause is clarified in the second paragraph — that it’s okay to sell a batch or mixture of uneven quality as long as the buyer will certainly know that the purchase does include inferior product. That isn’t false pretenses.</p>
<p>However, as per <a title="Aspaqlaria: QSA 62:1" href="http://www.aishdas.org/asp/2009/07/qsa-62-1-2.shtml">the law we saw in 62:1</a>, one may not overcharge. The buyer knowing the product is of mixed quality, but selling it to him at the market price for top quality product, could be <em>ona’ah</em>. Unless there is so little of the low-grade product that the market prices are nearly the same anyway. Otherwise, he would have to lower his price to the weighted average of the two quality lines sold.</p><div class="feedflare">
