1st and last time at 6th Avenue Electronics. Ad for Labor Day...40" LCD Flatscreen TV for $398, from 7am to 9 am only on the holiday. Ad says they have 250 in stock. Arrived at 6:45. Waited in line to get in as soon as they opened. I was the 9th person through the door. Asked first salesman I saw where to find the TV, and was told they only had the floor model left. When asked how that was possible, I was told "they gave out "vouchers" for them". Vouchers to whom? Family? Friends? There were 15 people waiting to get in, and no one had a voucher? Not one of 4 salespeople I questioned, had an answer. What a disgrace.

In the 90's the Temiz brothers, who own 6th Avenue, routinely advertised items well below cost to try to hoard customers to their few stores. "If it looked too good to be true," it was - many were brands they were not "authorized dealers" for, that is, they did not have a direct pipeline to products from some of the major manufacturers. This forced true and honest competitors to dodge these ads froim customers.
Over the years, they had to legitimize to get products from major brand companies. Some remnants of the old business tactics remain. They would have had to had about 13 of those TVs in each of the stores. Check the brand - see if they routinely carry it. Then check the prices against legitimate competition for validity.
If they do not routinely carry the brand, you were had and the ad was false/misleading. If they do routinely carry the brand at competitive prices, the PA Division of Consumer Affairs can solicit the sales from that day to determine if you were right. You waited in line. You deserve better. Make some waves.
