Yah, that was a douche move. I am NOT defending them, but here is what happened. The fact that you saw it on their site for 6 months, that game was long sold. They had another "in the back" but it wasn't the game on their website.
Some will say they had an old website, some will say bait and switch. Honestly, they should have told you over the phone the game sold, and they had another at a higher price.
However, I can say, this is pretty normal behavior for retail pinball places. When I was first in the hobby and looking to buy from retailers, this exact same thing happened to me twice.
I'm not excusing it, just saying.
Quoted from fryeguy7:It was 2245 and now its 3595. They can charge what they like but to raise it when they send pics for me to make my buying decision is a shame. But they don't owe me anything and I don't owe them my business.
