What constitutes an advertisement at a lower price:
Printed advertisements:
A printed advertisement is an advertisement appearing in a newspaper, magazine, store circular, or catalog which states the authorized dealer or store name, item (including model number), and sale price. In order to receive a refund of the price difference, the advertisement must have been published within 60 days after the original purchase date and must be for the same item (same model number, same model year).
