The whole story should reads like this.
"We are sorry that we advertised a wrong price here, we cannot deliver AINOL Novo 8 Advanced Tablet with US$63 only. We advertise a wrong price."
Why is it so difficult for Dinodirect to admit they make a big big mistake here? It is not about out of stock because stock can be ordered from AINOL. There is no way AINOL will run out of stock for such a small orders, or put it other way, there is no way AINOL won't sell to us if we have 100 buyers. But AINOL won't sell to us at US$63.
Wait. Dinodirect cannot do that? why? because it will be false advertising and it is illegal. Quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_advertising
"False advertising or deceptive advertising is the use of false or misleading statements in advertising. As advertising has the potential to persuade people into commercial transactions that they might otherwise avoid, many governments around the world use regulations to control false, deceptive or misleading advertising. Truth refers to essentially the same concept, that customers have the right to know what they are buying, and that all necessary information should be on the label.
False advertising, in the most blatant of contexts, is illegal in most countries. However, advertisers still find ways to deceive consumers in ways that are not illegal."
Either way, Dinodirect is making us the customers angry with the flip flop.
