They "cannot guarantee" the product description of the 1.3k dollar laptop theyre selling is accurate because they used chatgpt to write it (thelemmy.club)

This cannot possibly hold up in court. You cant just advertise a product and then be like "*but actually we might be lying about some or all of these things"??? What the fuck are you selling then

I recently ran into this issue with a coffee pot. I was specifically hunting for a coffee pot with an adjustable temperature warmer. Ordered one that specifically stated that in the description, only to receive a coffee pot that did not have that feature. Checked the model number on the box versus the listing, and it's the same. Then I saw the fine print: we are not responsible for inaccurate product information.

    we are not responsible for inaccurate product information.

    I have half a packet of mints in my car. Going to put them up on eBay and sell them as immortality drugs. Well see how that works out.

    What country? In many, this is straight up false advertising and you're entitled to a refund.

    At their expense for shipping, no less. Nothing that a charge back won't fix - with all the evidence ready to go) https://www.accc.gov.au/consumers/problem-with-a-product-or-service-you-bought/repair-replace-refund-cancel
