Grupon misleads customers again

    Only recently the passions on a questionable action on a grupon with German-Chinese vacuum cleaners ( http://habrahabr.ru/links/122136 ) died out as we again step on the same rake.



    Now with e-books.

    Seeing the action groupon.ru/moscow/itbstore2 - not so much would be very interested. The scheme as a whole is standard, the same as it was with vacuum cleaners - we set the unrealistic price as the base 6,800 rubles per device, the price of which with a single order with delivery of about $ 80 (for example, on a familiar dealextreme - $ 83, yes there are slightly different characteristics, but it is clear that the price of $ 220 is ridiculous). We promise a good discount of 60% and put up for sale for 2500 rubles. Well, it’s clear that now many discounts (especially for equipment) work according to this scheme, I would have passed by if I had not looked in the comments.

    What do I see there:



    Yeah? Electronic ink? I look at the picture. I look at the answer. Back to the picture. The one with a color screen. No, something is clearly not converging ...
    Maybe the wrong photo or different readers in the action? The leader on the action is one (in 3 different color versions).
    Okay, now I'm really curious. Already 750 books were bought for the promotion, not bad! I read the comments on.







    The consultant on the site is either lying or not competent in the matter. He writes about video formats in the next question about the E-ink screen.

    Well, I can help (I thought naively). I am writing my comment:



    It was still in the afternoon, about 15 hours.
    The comment went to the “moderator for review”. I began to wait. About 19 hours (4 hours passed, I expected something meaningful) I find a "response".



    I understand that my comment was not approved (as "uncomfortable", well, I didn’t count on anything else), but instead I received a standard reply. I received it by email. Moreover, she was clearly prepared in advance and apparently sent to many in response to their questions. It directly indicates conflicting data that changes the very essence of technology. For me, this would be the same as buying an Android phone and getting it with windows mobile. No, well, too, because the phone, you can call and all that!

    At the same time, my comment was not lost somewhere in the system, after it at 19:48 a comment appeared with a response from another user.

    About 900 coupons have already been bought. I just hope that the group, as a company respecting its customers, will notify the purchasers that it was given in response to questionsfalse information will return the money to those who are not satisfied with the new fact, namely that the book has an ordinary cheap LCD screen, and to electronic ink it is as far away as to the cost of 6800.
