Dealers Who Refuse to Honor Their Published Web Prices


This is the 2nd time I've had this experience. Yesterday I was on the Audio Advice website and they had advertised an Auralic Aries G2.2 for $3,899. I called with my credit card to order - was told this was an error and that an "old web page" had inadvertently been published. How does this happen? They took down the web page - but I have the saved screen shot for $3,899.

When I'm in a grocery store or a department store, these stores aways honor the sticker price - even if it's an error. I don't know what other audio stores with integrity would do. I know what Audio Advice did - and I have the screen shot to prove it.

Anybody with similar experiences?

Imagine what happens down the road when it breaks and you have to have it serviced. HA! Good luck. Buy stuff from a place that has humans that know high end audio and work at a real store. Not a website and a warehouse and voicemail.

I’m not sure if this applies to this situation but it certainly comes to mind.

@steakster  the webmaster didnt make a mistake the seller is just ripping off its custmers. 

@mattmiller Audio Advice is also a retail chain with three store fronts in NC and one in TN with actual humans working in these stores.
 

With that said, I live in Raleigh and avoid this place due to the condescending nature of the sales people I have encountered there. The OP’s website experience seems to mirror the in person experience.
