As long as they tell you the price before you complete the transaction I
see no problem. Price do fluctuate and there is a lead time associated
with getting advertising artwork submitted to a magazine before
printing. An ad in a magazine is not a type of binding contract. They
have the right to change prices and you have the right not to buy the
item at the new price. I just don't see an issue here.
