Agreed.
One of the great sucker stories of all would be the fact that Harvey Norman is listed on the ASX.
The share price has barely moved over the last five years except down.
The reason that Gerry Harvey whines so much, is that between himself and his wife he virtually controls the voting stock in the company. Every annual meeting he usually votes himself a generous bonus of HVN shares. His fortune is not growing at its previous rate hence his cries of foul play..... some old things are lovely

Sorry Arthur the original question was cryptic to me, "advertising style", as in TV, newspapers, brochures, internet?????
Your above second post gives a bit more detail but..........
As I hardly ever watch commercial TV (Hardly Normal's sound blasting ads being one reason), don't buy newspapers anymore, don't get junk mail (or any mail) delivered, yes it was cryptic to me at least, and judging by the answers you received not only to me.
But you're right, the answers to your cryptic question were interesting

I don't watch commercial TV except for SBS news, so I don't have first hand experience of current advertising campaigns, but a friend told me yesterday that Harvey Norman's are advertising that you should buy from them because they will be there tomorrow to honor the warranty.
This caused me great amusement because fairly recently several Harvey Norman franchisees were finded millions of dollars by the ACCC for refusing to comply with their statutory obligations under current laws protecting consumers - basically refusing to accept return of dead or malfunctioning appliances & telling the purchaser to go chase the manufacturer.
