Expert: Mark C. Robins Date: 3/19/2008 Subject: misleading advertising
Question does an advertisement; a coupon offering " buy this "product" between
March 1
and March 31, this year, with the chance to win a "valuable consideration",
which shows "one of a line of the product" without an identifiable model
number, and no printed retail cost, but with a price quote/month and no
terms(ie no number of payments or term stated), constitute misleading
advertising. And further if this is inadvertently offered in a province not
intended by the sponsor, is it still considered a viable offer? (wow- stupid
question, since the offer is not clear to begin with; which, since it is not
clearly defined what is actually being offered, does this of itself lead to the
conclusion, this is in fact a misleading advertisement?(aka an illegal
enticement)
Answer I do not have an answer to this one, you should contact the Advertising Council of Canada.
Steve,
Why the negative comment?
Would you have preferred that I give you the wrong answers?
I directed you to the correct source for your question.
By the way where in my profile did it say I handled these types of questions?
