Yeah I guess it must be the quota. A pity, because I want to do it, but can't spare the cash yet.

- proexploit 17y agoCan they do that legally? It said "today only" and "limit 10 per customer", not "while supplies last". There's no accompanying legalese, so shouldn't they be legally obligated to honor their offer until 11:59PM?
- robhu 17y agoWhy wouldn't they be able to? A company can take down or put up any offer they want whenever they want. Once they've taken your money you've entered in to a contract with them, but before that they can do whatever they want.
- proexploit 17y agoThen why don't I create a ad that says: "Pre-notice of amazing sale! Order tomorrow and receive 95% off your purchase!" and then change it at 11:59PM so that it's no longer valid. My example is extreme, but shouldn't they have considered that before they posted an offer with only two qualifying statements?! Edit: I'm certainly not a legal professional, so my opinion is not the law. On most print advertisements, I see advertisers give a disclaimer such as "We are not required to offer any mistakes in printing etc." This covers them legally since they need to advertise honestly.
- falien 17y agoMy guess is, at least in most places that disclaimer isn't what covers them. The disclaimer is to discourage the people who will stand at the customer service counter arguing for 3 hours to get their 5 pounds of steak for a dollar.
- jamesbritt 17y agoI just ordered at the discount. Check the site again.
- proexploit 17y agoI've ordered as well. Looks like they were still working with it. My argument is still interesting, although no longer valid to this particular situation. Thanks for the update.
