Not too long ago, info-commercials -- rather than offering cheap secondary products like cheese graters and reading lights -- started to offer instead the option to get two for the price of one (just pay additional processing and shipping). This is a terrible trend that must be stopped.

February 1, 2013

The growth of this movement has caught the attention of two consumer advocacy journalists who are requesting interviews about the double offer practice. I am currently preparing a formal brief that details how these hidden processing fees mislead the average buyer. We will use this momentum to push for a direct meeting with the regional trade commission.

its predatory marketing. people are already paying way to much for the original product.

THESE ADS ARE THE WORST. I NEVER ASKED FOR A SECOND PIECE OF JUNK. JUST GIVE ME THE ITEM I WANTED IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!

Enough with the scams. Nobody wants two of the same junk item taking up space in their drawers. Stop charging us twice for shipping.
