H John--this isn't entirely correct--

The link is "Buy Now"
and it says the following (previously posted)

Correct, but the implication (to me, at least) is that the $199 price IS the 50% off price, rather than the 50% off price being $99. No big deal, really, but as in engraving, anything that CAN be misinterpreted should be anticipated and clarified. In this case, the $99 price AND the limitation to the month of October should both have appeared for clarity. (Perhaps they should hire an English major!)

How do I go about it? Looked at the website and could only find it for $199. Can you direct me to obtaining it?
Thanks,

You have to click on "Order" or whatever the link is, and then it will show up, unexplained, with the $99 price. There is no actual information on the website, and I discovered this by accident while searching for some kind of statement. Poor marketing or poor use of the website, if they actually want to use the half-price offer to attract new users.
