False Advertising? Snowmobile/ATV

[TWISTER]

I recently put a down payment on a snowmobile along with a friend and the guy said that there is no deals and this is the best price he has, but when I got home there is an ad for $200 in free accesories w/ new sled purchase so I call the guy and told him and he told me he didnt know if I could get the free stuff. Meanwhile my friend takes the add to him and upgrades to a bigger and newer non current (new) and the guy tells him the $200 in free stuff is only for if you pay the MSRP. WTF who pays MSRP? Especially on a 2003. I havnt paid for the sled yet and have not been told by the salesman this. But the add in no way says MSRP anyplace. Its reads "$200 in free accesories with any new 02,03 or 04 Ski Doo snowmobile." Sooo how do I go about getting this without being an a$$. Seems like false advertising to me. Do I pay for it then demand the accesories or the Better Business Bureau will be called. Why do I have to turn into an a$$ to get what the ad states? TIA It will be a few days till I get back so feel free to give me all your opinions.

Tell your dealer you will be calling Ski-doo and looking into how the rebates they offer are applied to the dealer.

You'll be happy with the results.

The salesman claims I bought the sled at costline and It seems to be a dealer Ad and not a Ski Doo rebate but I have no clue. ill check into it Thanks Keep em comin

time for state attorney agency of Michigan to be notified.
I would go beyond the salesman & talk with the owner or manager. Explain how you are going to state attorney general office with info

Take the advice if littlesixsteve after talking to the manager of the dealer in question. They do not take this sort of thing lightly and will get involved.
