    Looking at the pullout they have in todays Sunday world for the tablets and I some how had one from Sept sitting in the paper tray, so I had a look and all the prices are now higher, but what is more annoying is that the claimed for example in Sept that the price for a tablet was down from 119 to 97 euro.
    In todays its 149 down to 97!

    Is that misleading advertising?

    Its certainly misleading, not sure if its illegal though.

    I've been watching something in Harvey Normans for a while (as well as other places). It was displayed in a corner with not much footfall for €999 for the last 4-5 months, was in there recently, now its up on a pedestal in the centre of the section with a big sign saying, WAS €1299!!!, NOW €999!!! BARGAIN!!!.

    As it happens, the €999 bargain sale price is still a rip off compared to elsewhere.

    Hate that stuff, people then think they have a bargain. Probably borderline but not illegal, would still love to highlight it! :)D
