And Most of the EU, and Nz and Aus...
But that is the case for so many posts about shady business practises.
It's funny how US corps can still operate and make a profit in these markets...
Illegal in the US too. Watch out for weasel wording to get around the laws though.
"Compare to $25"
"A $25 value"
"Our lowest price ever"
"Hot Buy"
Notice how none of those actually say it's cheaper than it was before.
Businesses and corporations choose their words very carefully, and people should stop trying to interprete or read between the lines in many cases.
βOur lowest price everβ means exactly and exclusively that, nothing more, nothing less.
It can also be factually true. For example it's their lowest price ever on model TX-56YB, only available on Black Friday.
TX-56Y for the rest of the year has totally been cheaper.
Walmart is the worst at this, which is why I would never buy a TV there.
And yet still totally happens.
