ReplayTV RTV5516 160-Hour Digital Video Recorder
Deceptive Advertising - 3 yr service not included
The sale price in the add is 299.97  The features listed in the ad include \\"Pre-activated, with no service fee for 3 years; after 3 years, just $.99 per month .\\"  However, after placing the order through Amazon.com, I received an e-mail from Circuit City informing me that as of Dec 17th (coincidently the same day I made my purchase) the 3 year service fee is no longer included.  Instead there would be either a 299.99 fee for the lifetime of the unit, or a 12.95 per month charge.  I called Circuit City and was told that the ad was in error, and is the result of a change in ReplayTV policy.  Therefore the difference represented in the ad between the list price and the selling price is basically the cost of the 3 yr service subscription.  \\"You Save\\" 0.00
