I once bought $99.80 worth of stuff on this website after seeing an advertisement for free shipping on orders $99+. It was only after getting to the final screen that I found out it was only $99.99+ so I needed to add another useless item to my cart to avoid the $10 shipping. It's not a huge deal but what's the recourse to false advertising like that? I still needed the bulk of that order so I wasn't about to cancel the order but it also wasn't nice spending more than I wanted. Is there a simple place to report violations like this?
- nacs 5y agoA similar situation I've run into is an online store I buy regularly from that has free shipping over $X amount. The item I buy normally costs over that but every once in a while they'll send a coupon that offers 15% off that literally drops the price to like $1 under that free shipping price. So the "coupon" ends up making it more expensive in total because the free-shipping is based off the post-discount price.
