LOS ANGELES (Legal Newsline) — A proposed class action says iCanvas is deceiving customers with price comparisons.
Tal Nelkin, individually and on behalf of all similarly situated, filed a complaint Oct. 2 in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California against Kroto Inc., doing buisness as iCanvas, and iCanvas Art, alleging violation of California's Unfair Competition Law, unjust enrichment and other claims.
Nelkin alleges in his class action that online retailer of wall art and home decor, iCanvas and iCanvas Art, misleads consumers with unlawful pricing, sales and discounting practices on is website.
Specifically, Nelkin claims the defendant advertises fake and inflated "comparison reference prices" in order to deceive customers into believing the prices are deeply discounted and bargains. He further alleges that the products on the defendants' websites can not be discounted and that the reference prices on the websites are fake.
Nelkin claims the defendants also advertise sales as being limited in duration when the sale is perpetual.
Nelkin and the class seek monetary relief, interest, trial by jury and all other just relief. They are represented by Alexander Wolf of Milberg Coleman Bryson Phillips Grossman PLLC in Beverly Hills.
