The advertisement said they were sold in pairs but it was supposed to be each so they wouldn't honour the price for those who thought they were buying a pair of speakers. Some guy in Toronto contacted the Toronto Star newspaper's consumer advocate who printed the story. Within a day FS not only honoured the price for a pair but also threw in a $150 gift certificate for their mistake. Ask me how I know? I was one of the ones who bought these speakers.

Interesting. Glad we don't have to do much of that here. I've seen it attempted but results weren't as good as you experienced.
