If you still use Amazon, get the CamelCamelCamel addon. It shows you a graph of how the price of an item has changed, so you can see if a sale is really a discount of just one of these fake "sales".
Reminds me of when Circuit City was finally going out of business and they were having a liquidation sale. There were some TVs I was looking at and they were regularly priced at like $800. They had STACKS of those TVs they couldn't move.
Then CC was going out of business and was going through liquidation. The same TVs were being advertised as MSRP $1,299 but 25% liquidation pricing and people were buying 2 at a time.
Yeah, that’s illegal.
Might be in the US... not here.
It is in Europe. The advertised ‘from’ price must be the lowest price of the last 30 days.
