If you show them a web page loading live, most people will accept that. Even if you were a hacker and you somehow made it go to your own hacked page, if you want it that badly, they may well figure it's not worth the time spent verifying it just for one customer. Or, they may have had a similar experience earlier the same day.

I showed my phone to a cashier at CompUSA/TigerDirect one day -- fortunately, the price as displayed instore was wrong and their register scanned correctly anyway, but that's the closest I've come to needing it.



Ultimately, you KNOW when a price isn't right... I'm assuming Wii Music is more like $199 than 19.99, though I wouldn't know. If I saw something like that, I'd dismiss that one hit, and look at the others. It's a research tool, not gospel truth, and using it is no different than using what someone wrote in a doctoral dissertation: some of it may not be 100% factual or correct, so you take what you can verify and drop the rest as chaffe from the wheat.
