People are posting prices after the MS Live Search, so it's really not the asking price. IMO this is misleading.

Am I just being nit-picky?

I think the titles should be edited to either remove the price or include the price before MS Cash Back.

Happens all the time everywhere you look.

Canon 50D $1000 (after $1000 mail in rebate)

As long as you can get the item for the advertised price it's not misleading, may be annoying though.

Yeah we do that all the time:

2009 Hyundai Sonata $16991*
*plus tax title and fees includes all rebates and cash incentives.

It is just marketing.

While not technically lying, I do think it's intentionally misleading... er, ummm... marketing.
