Paulo Jordao Photography - BLOG

Hi, This Paulo Jordao (Paulo Jordao Photography). Most of the time I write a blog about photography and etc…, but once a while I have to report some of the abuses that I see going around. you might even think that I am one more of these people with some Conspiracy Theory.

Just read the post below, and let me know what you think…

This is the latest rip-off misleading advertisement.

Today, I was watching TV, when it started playing one of that 30 minutes infomercial. This infomercial was about early reading program (BAD MISLEADING COMPANY) showing couple of testimonials about this specific program.

When they showed the FREE 30 days trial for only 14.95, I was ready to order mine own program.

For some reason, I decided to order mine using the internet instead of ordering by phone (that was a very smart thing that I have done).

On their webpage, was showing the 14.95 program that I saw earlier on the TV Show, but they also had another option of $199.95.

My first thought was that the cheaper program would just offer the DVDs and the $199.00 would come with the DVDs + Reading Cards + Whatever extras that they had there. I didn’t care much for the “DELUX PACKAGE- $199.95″, I just wanted the special promotion of $14.95.

Looking further on their website, I noticed that it didn’t really have a $14.95 package. The only price that they have for the Package is $199.95. The $14.95 was for you to keep the program for 30 days (if you want to really have it, than you have to pay the full price).

I should know better… What a waist of time watching these infomercials.

If I learned anything from this experience is - Next time that your LOCAL CHANEL decide to Air this kind of infomercials, just change the channel, and maybe this way, the TV Stations would Air a good program instead.
