No one would start intentionally shopping for a phone priced that high just by looking at this ad. It has to be a more literal clickbait.

UPDATE: I did not consider the currency. The number of responses mentioning currency tells me that’s what I overlooked. I am no longer even mildly infuriated and am therfore a liar 😅

      Well…I didn’t consider that. I tried to find the ad again but couldn’t make the same one appear. I did get a different Amazon ad which I clicked through and confirmed its price was in USD. I did assume I’d only see ads with prices in local currency but that could be a bad assumption.

        I don’t think us mere mortals can hope to understand the mysteries of Amazon marketing services.
