Radio Shack
Radio Shack Black Friday bait & switch Lancaster, Texas
25th of Nov, 2010 by User469641
Television ads for Radioshack for Acer laptop model AOD255-2331 for $179. Website said these were only being sold in the stores. Being in the first 10 customers in the store we went straight to the counter to ask about the laptops. We stood in line for a few minutes watching as the customers in front of us checked out, and no one was getting a laptop. When we got to the front of the line we were told the store only had 2 of these Acers and they were already sold. A flyer in the store said in fine print that each store would have a minimum of 1 of these laptops, and I dare this store to prove they had even one. We were not offered a raincheck at either of the stores we visited. This is the classic bait and switch which I presume is still a big no-no, and I will report this to my state's Attorney General. From the website (saved as txt file but cannot paste here):
