BuyDig.com Buydig Bait and Switch Price Scammer Internet
Report Attachments
Buydig are liars and pulled a price baiting scam last week. They ran this ad:
http://dealmac.com/LG-32-720-p-LED-LCD-HDTV-for-200-free-shipping/895880.html
“BuyDig via eBay offers the LG 32 inch 720p LED-Backlit LCD HD Television, model no. 32LN520B, for an in-cart price of $199.99 with free shipping. That's the lowest total price we could find by $29 and the cheapest LG 32 inch 720p LED LCD HDTV we've seen. Features include a 1366x768 (720p) native resolution, USB, and two HDMI inputs. Deal ends November 8 at 11:19 am ET. “
I looked at it on the night of the 6th, was going to buy it the next morning, then they changed the price on the 7th to $250, a full day before the end of their sale date. If that is not bait and switch then I don not know what is. They were never out of stock on this item, they simply upped the price by 50 bucks over 24 hours before the sale end date. I have a report with the BBB about them. This should, and is, against the law in a lot of states. I certainly cannot walk in a store with an ad flyer good til a certain date and have them not honor the price, they would be sued for false advertising. And that is exactly what buydig did.
When I emailed them about it, they purposely took 48 hours to respond, then simply said:
"Dear xxxxx,
I apologize, we no longer have this item available at that price.
- buydig"
Unbelievable. These guys are criminals.

Maurice J from Buydig took ownership of the issue and honored the original advertised price. He was professional and kind and not confrontive in the least. I ordered the TV at the advertised price today and I will buy from them again.

November 19 Update: Buydig responded favorably to the BBB Report and will offer me this at the advertised price. I will contact them tomorrow to take them up on it. I am increasing my rating to 4 stars because they did the right thing for the customer when confronted.
