Circuit City “One Price Promise”
Posted on November 26th, 2008 by roger
Do retailers really think consumers are stupid?
Take a look at Circuit City’s “One Price Promise” on their web site… pay particular attention to the exclusions.
One Price Promise? Yeah… you can be confident you’re likely to be screwed over if you’re not an informed consumer.
I’ll spend my money elsewhere — though I’ll be happy to force them to better a lost leader price by 10% with there “Unbeatle Price Guarantee”!!!
