Fuel Price

The cost of fuel in the city I live in is significantly higher then the surrounding areas, sometimes up to $1.00 more.

One of the local gas stations tried to sell fuel at the price of the surrounding areas; The city government told them they could not sell fuel for $0.04 less then another gas station and this gas station sets the price for the rest of them.

Is this legal and what can be done about it?

1) Go to the surrounding areas for gas.

2) Talk to the gas station that sets the price.

3) Talk to the city government officials.

I see you live in-> Location: Hueco Mundo
Where exactly is that?
