That's a bit of a contradiction. If it is clearly false advertising, why wouldn't you be able to get a case to stick?
It
is clearly false advertising, it fulfils all the criteria without need to in any way stretch the facts, and the fact that it may be a mistake is utterly irrelevant, the onus is on the advertiser to not make mistakes, not the consumer to cut them a break because they messed up. (Although, producing something sub standard and relying on the customer to take up the slack is a very
GW thing to do.)
The only thing that makes this not worth pursuing is a matter of scale, not a matter of validity.
But then, if I'd bought several dozen bundles in the mistaken belief it contained extra weapons over two boxes bought separately (after all, there must be some reason they're offering it over simply adding the products to your cart separately at the same price, right?) I may feel differently about the scale too.
The problem is you wouldnt have much of a case. The damages to you due to the false advertising are minimal.
GW could also offer you a refund. Lawyers are expensive.
