Section 470.220 Comparison
to Seller's Own Former (Regular) Prices
It is an unfair or deceptive act
for a seller to compare current price with its former (regular) price for any
product or service, (for example: "$99, Now $69
–
Save $30";
"Regularly $99, Now $69"; "Originally $99, Now $69";
"Save $30, Now $69") unless one of the following criteria are met:
a) the former (regular) price is equal to or below the price(s)
at which the seller made a substantial number of sales of such products in the
recent regular course of its business; or
b) the former (regular) price is equal to or below the price(s)
at which the seller offered the product for a reasonably substantial period of
time in the recent regular course of its business, openly and actively and in
good faith, with an intent to sell the product at that price(s).
