False Representation of Characteristics
Retailers may not misrepresent the quality of a service or product or falsely advertise inaccurate characteristics of the service or product.
Falsely Listing Items for Sale Without the Intent to Sell
Product sellers may not put items up for sale within their retail space, either online or in a brick-and-mortar store without the intent to sell the item. Items for sale must actually be purchasable by a customer.

Product and service retailers may not falsely advertise a promotion or discount by misrepresenting the terms and conditions of the promotion. Full disclosure of the promotion limitations and conditions is required.
