Is it right for the said retailer to advertised something no longer available? I am with Bernard here. It takes Money to advertise and in this case, if the product is no longer available, then it does not make financial 'sense' to do that right? There is another aspect which is awareness. In this case, this is creating awareness of the brand and I see nothing wrong with it. Unless they sell u and they cannot deliver, then its another thing altogether.
As to product knowledge, not being treated well, etc etc, I am sure many, if not all, would have faced them sometime before. Lets get on in life. Just dont spend the money there if you dont feel well. For one that walk away, there are many who experiences differs and contribute to the growing reputation of the outlet.
I applaud any effort to promote the independents.
Good day
