A man bought Cartier earrings for $13,000 but paid only $13, and then the jeweler realized the mistake.


Rogelio Villarreal, a resident of Mexico, stumbled upon a pair of Cartier earrings priced at an unbelievably low rate on the brand's website. After purchasing two pairs, Cartier attempted to cancel the order and offered gifts as compensation. Mr. Villarreal, citing Mexican consumer protection laws, filed a complaint with the federal consumer protection agency, leading to a potential class-action lawsuit. Despite legal complexities, Cartier eventually agreed to fulfill the order, signaling a resolution to the conflict. While some praised Mr. Villarreal's persistence, others criticized him for exploiting the situation. The legal process will continue until the earrings are received.
