Anyone tried to access Friday the 13th PB tech sale?

Clicking the banner just refreshes the page and basically shows nothing (well nothing that wasn't there this morning), i.e. no sale...

and there online specials seem to follow there normal marketing scheme of increasing there prices before the sale to have a sale price...  eneloop AAA batteries for example and LED bulbs...

Ok and this is why i hate them

LG watch R, RRP in NZ is between $450 - $480

Yet PBtech say its $688.85
Is there not some law about this, I remember firstin getting done for it and that is why they use the ERP now.


From LG NZ facebook page
"Available now in NZ from Noel Leeming, Harvey Norman, Warehouse Stationery and PB Tech. RRP $479"

Well the inflated RRP has pee'd me off a bit so I have just sent a message to LG about how they are inflating the RRP to make the sale look better.
