The control of prices in the supply market or shops was determined by the town councils and the government. In the city of Toledo, a printed document was published entitled Moderación de precios de todos géneros comerciables, hecha en virtud de Real Provisión de su Magestad, y señores de su Real Consejo, por la Imperial Ciudad de Toledo. Year 1680, which established the control of non-food manufactured goods. Subsequently, the articulated control system evolved towards more specific positions, such as the so-called “shop tariffs” where each shop had its own stipulated price.
