The bait and switch on financing seems very destructive to prospective deals.

Maybe OP can share why they refused him the 0% financing and why they didn't disclose it to him when he made the purchase.
Bait and switch can work very well in the "once in a lifetime" type of purchases. and an engagement ring is supposed to be exactly that. they are not really looking for repeat customers.
