Presented the The most foul sales trick of all is misrepresentation. The oldest used car trick in the book is to turn back the mileage making the car appear to be something more valuable than it actually is. Some Funeral directors employ this funeral cost trick in the funeral business.
Rest in Peace actually worked for a guy, who had a string of funeral homes across a state.
In each funeral home he renamed the caskets so as if someone were to compare prices no one could tell the differences. Most often the funeral home owner increased the folks funeral cost. The funeral directors often get away with higher funeral costs on lower cost caskets with this method.
Yes this is outside of the realm of the law. But it can even go much further than this. The reuse of caskets is strictly against the law. Rest in Peace has seen funeral directors reuse caskets in order to make more money on Public Aid Funerals. This is the funeral director's lose the license to practice event. It is very difficult to report these matters because if one did one could be banned from working or being employed anywhere. SOME FUNERAL DIRECTORS RE USE CASKETS!
Misrepresentation works with products people,politics, and employment situations.
People of courage report misrepresentation. and do not put up with it. If you do this with funerals you will end up with a low cost funeral.

Hey I was wondering... which would be cheaper: cremation or a traditional burial?
Also, which is more environmentally-friendly? You'd think cremation would be more environmentally friendly... but I'm not sure.

Cremation cost less than traditional burial...if you find a funeral home with a crematory on site. But the hydro carbons from the burning they are not good for the atmosphere.
Eco Friendly-- One kind of traditional burial is better and sometimes cost less than cremation. Your non embalmed body goes into a cardboard casket into the ground.
