The Plaintiffs alleged that the Defendant Manufacturers agreed to fix the price at which they sold Flexible Polyurethane Foam resulting in inflated prices for Canadian consumers and entities who bought Flexible Polyurethane Foam or Foam Products.

Hardly worth the time and effort. Sounds basically like a cozy deal for some law firm. They are usually the big winners in any class action.

Forwards you to kccsecure.com - registered in Melbourne, Australia and hosted in the US.

Smells a little fishy to me. Wouldn't advise people to click it. Seems to only host different class action items and can't find any of these class action lawsuits.

technically since you would have purchased the product in after tax dollars so the rebate would also be after tax dollars.

There’s a commercial on TSN about every 1/2 hr. According to the commercial, you just have to take a picture of the tag on the object.

Here is another address

Yeah or maybe the site is run by KCC llc. a company that does an awful lot of Class Action Claims Management

http://www.kccllc.com/class-action/what-we-do

Hmm but the Australia thing.... Is KCC owned by a huge financial services company called Computershare headquartered in Abbotsford maybe?

http://www.kccllc.com/news-events/ne...nistrati-17970

Seriously man if you're going pass advice out to people make at least some effort, it took me like 2 minutes to figure that out.

you're right. had planned to follow up but got distracted. It doesn't hurt for others to do some research too.
