Handy Hardware, but is told by the sales clerk that the rakes that were on sale are now all sold out $($they sold the three they had in inventory the first morning of the sale$).$ The clerk then tries to sell Zeke another rake that costs $$12\mathrm{.}99.$ Under FTC rules

this is illegal bait and switch advertising.

this is not illegal bait and switch advertising if the rakes really were sold out when Zeke arrived.

this is illegal only if Handy Hardware gave the sales clerk a higher commission or some other economic incentive to sell the $$12\mathrm{.}99$ rakes rather than the $$5\mathrm{.}99$ rakes.
