On November 25, shopping fans want to hit Black Friday again.
But not every offer is worthwhile.
As an example from Amazon shows.
A Twitter user feels fooled and posts the supposed bargain.
Munich – The
Black Friday
discount battle is in full swing.
Not only in retail, but also on the Internet, retailers undercut each other and lure customers to their websites with hefty price reductions.
But many an offer is not well received by some users on the Internet.
Especially when they feel confused.
When looking for wireless earphones, a user found this supposedly good offer at the online retailer Amazon.
Plug with charging case for 60.49 euros with a saving of 50 percent on Black Friday.
The crux, the price of 60.49 euros was already two weeks ago.
As evidence, he puts both offers side by side and posts them on the short message service Twitter.
Black Friday offer from Amazon: a number of users make fun of it
The Twitter community hits the young man.
A number of likes and retweets followed: "You still save the most on promotions if you don't buy anything", "Pseudo offer, actually a cheek, a bad joke", "Black Friday is a pure marketing gimmick".
Another user jokingly quotes an "alleged wisdom" from the dealer's poetry album: "Let the dealer tell you discounts will be opened beforehand."
A user therefore advises always using price comparison portals such as Geizhals.
Discount here, discount here.
One user doesn't understand that there are people who buy from Amazon.
"They're ruining everything, local business, labor rights, the environment!"
