The term for spontaneous unwritten (and usually unsubstantiated) retail mark-ups that occur only for Caucasian individuals when visiting a third world country or heavily impoverished area, especially one with a large population of ethnic minorities. These price increases usually occur when shopping at small, privately-owned businesses and storefronts.
