“Because of my husband’s work, I moved from my native Rostov to Crimea. And I must say that in everything, from prices to attitude towards people, Crimea is ahead, but with a minus sign.
It is clear that the lack of road connections with Russia leaves its mark on the cost of goods, but not to the same extent. Bananas, apparently, are considered an overseas delicacy on the peninsula, although in Rostov they cost no more than 35 rubles (in Crimea - 2 times more expensive, - ed.). I generally keep quiet about building materials: they are three to four times more expensive. And in my opinion, everyone knows that it’s 50-100 thousand cheaper to drive a car from Krasnodar and buy it in Crimea. And what does the transition period have to do with it?
In addition, prices for services and the very attitude of sellers towards buyers. In Rostov, a merchant will buzz around you with a bee and give you a discount so that God forbid you leave empty-handed. And then recently I went into a hairdressing salon, and the aunties who work there couldn’t decide for about five minutes who would get me as punishment.
It’s clear that there are positive examples, but the negative ones are so striking that they cover up everything else,” Shapovalova sums up.
