Re: H-F class action suit
Yeh well maybe you did not get a Sunday dinner out of it, but the HF executives did. I do not expect any money back out of my HF purchases, which are pretty low, OK, but I do not like being played for a sap, even if the play is small. If you like being a sap, just keep buying into whatever promotion they keep selling.
Good for the lawyers and the beneficiaries of the suit. If you like to support and excuse this kind of con, keep going to HF, and of course keep complaining about the lawyers. Hey, what about it? Last edited by PC/SR; 03-19-2017 at 01:12 AM. |

The Court reasoned that intentionally continuing to manufacture goods with a patent number of a patent that has expired in an attempt to deceive the public is a deceptive trade practice designed to stifle competition in the marketplace. Potential competitors may be dissuaded from entering the same market if they believe that there is a continued monopoly in place." "Selling Goods Marked with an Expired Patent is Unlawfu"l

Re: H-F class action suit
I am not defending HF or their executives.
However, I agreed to a price before purchasing, and they delivered at that price. If I didn't like the price, I wouldn't have bought it in the first place.

Re: H-F class action suit
Kohl's has its suppliers attach price tags that are twice as much as they really want to charge for an item, and then put their own price on it and claim it's "half off!" Penney's tried honest and straightforward pricing for awhile and nearly went broke. People apparently want to be conned. I could name other examples but refrain.

Just like all those store liquidators - lets say K mart is closing - store itself marks things down weeks before the deadline and thats the best time to buy things but everyone is waiting to the last week when things are 70-80-90% off. What alot of people dont know is the store has sold everything they have to a liquidation company by then that swoops in then marks the prices back up sometimes higher than MSRP THEN take 70-90% off. SO in reality you arent saving anything VS a normal sale but it appears you got a great bargain and people will buy all sorts of crap and start fist fights over discounted christmas lights People are weird - they are like raccoons when buying things. They love shiny things and love to rummage around in boxes looking for nothing.

Re: H-F class action suit
STUPID! A on the level Judge would give it "Summary judgment"... You don't like the price, don't buy it... Prices can change anytime... Just look at the has pump for example...

Re: H-F class action suit
How many people do you know who will drive miles to save a quarter? I have two buying situations only: one, I need it now (blown tire on a trip, major plumbing leak in the bathroom) and I am going to pay whatever I need to, or two, I need it but have time to shop and can judge price/delivery time/ quality and then order what best suits my needs. I am at a very fortunate place in my life where I don't really want or need much and i can afford to buy it if I really wanted to. That is a great feeling that I worked many years to achieve, but I appreciate not many are in that boat.

Re: H-F class action suit
Reminds me of the "WONDER" Drugs & if you've taken them, you can apply for "SUE" Money, even if you've DIED from it!----OR, they'll sell you other pills, to counteract the originals' BAD side effects!
Did you hear about the 2 GAY Attorneys?---They TRIED each other!! Bill W.
