LOL     We all see these ads. "But Call Now Because It's a Limited Time Offer". Yah? Really? But you guys have been running this ad for two or three years!!! We have one here in Florida selling those panels to keep your patio decks 10/15 degrees cooler all summer. And you have to call now!!! It's a limited Time Offer!!, maybe they are desperate for sales? Dead

These two idiots? The same commercial I've seen every summer for the past 10 years. Only thing that has changed is the bad edit, "over dubbing" 

"You can get your Sunsetter for as little as '$499' dollars" (It used to be $398 seen in this old video)

welcome CAT.
 
I tend not to buy from companies that outright lie to me, even if it's just a technical lie.
 
Let's take a quick tour of the bull$hit:
 
Like "saving $509 on car insurance".  (arbitrary precision, and you know it's phony statistics - which, turns out... THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT IT IS !!!)
"Call now, operators are standing by."   (of course they are.  It's only 2PM in India.)
"Buy one, get one."  (For what they truly cost to produce, I could get 50 for the price of one, and you'd still be ahead!)
"Just pay separate S&H."  See above
"My patented (whatever)."   See US patent for mudflaps for women's shoes.
"Supplies are limited."  (technically true, until they unload that boat from China)
"Not actors."   Really?  Do they get paid?  Am I supposed to trust them more because they're financially irresponsible, if they're working for free.  Does that make them more trustworthy?
 
 
 
Really, I'm just sick of all the lies and deceit.

I've noticed in the last couple of years the 'FREE SHIPPING' scam. Some will pay double for worthless crap to take advantage of this 'deal'. The curse of being somewhat intelligent is seeing behind the curtain and denied the joy of blissful ignorance.Wink
