Well I went to the show thinking that I might, if pushed and if they were a decent price, get myself a pair of Quattros as wetsuit holiday fins. However all the stands had them at £59 so cobblers to that.

I was in Decathlon looking at a pair of walking boots and had a wander past the dive kit bit. Lo and behold, the muppets ticketing up the fins saw "blue" and "Mares", put 2 and 2 together and came up with "X3 price". So ticketed all the blue Mares fins at the X3 price.

The result?

Pair of Mares Quattros for £40. Result. And I got the last pair of XL too.

Any more dishonest than someone who knows no difference and picks up a pair of blue fins and takes them to the checkout?

They stuck the price tag on and as such made an "offer of sale" for the fins. There was no other pricing information there. So I do believe I was being perfectly fine and above board.

And really would you have gone up to the counter and said "excuse me but these are priced at £42. However I belive this is incorrect. would you mind removing your price tag and reapplying the £75 one?"

No. I don't think so.
