Nov 23, (THAINDIAN NEWS) The shoppers of United Kingdom and United States were happy yesterday as Amazon UK offered lucrative Black Friday deals for the customers. However, to the utter shock and disappointment of the customers the bargains promised on the web sale by the company disappeared within a blink of an eye. Advertising Standards Authority said that they are all ready to investigate complaints against Amazon.
A reputed media source reported that Amazon promised up to 70% sale on the products and selected items to the customers but the shocking thing was that the bargains of the Black Friday sales disappeared quickly. The customers were surprised to see that just when they were about to select their own favorite merchandise, the whole page was deleted from the website of Amazon. The company launched some deals and named it as “Black Friday deals week”. The company called it as “lightning deals” as things were offered at such low prices. However, presently the investigators are trying to find out if those deals were genuine.
The customers have named the Amazon Black Friday Deals as “ridiculous” and a “joke”. However, the Amazon UK authorities said they warned their customers before that the deals will be for a short time. The officials said that the company has previously said that the offers would take the form of “Lightning Deals” sand it will have limited items at a discount for a short span of time. The spokesperson said that the company previously notified that once the the “quantity” of sale elapses, the “Lighting Deal” will end immediately. Black Friday is the day following Thanksgiving Day and it it the beginning of Christmas shopping for the people of United States.
