(a) That's right. ‘Bait’ advertising consists of offering small amounts of goods or services at very low prices to encourage people to take an interest, and then, when the small supplies have run out, to continue selling at higher prices. Section 35 of the ACL prohibits advertising goods or services at specified prices if the supplier has reasonable grounds for believing that they will not be able to supply those things for reasonable periods of time and in reasonable quatities, taking into account the nature of the market and what was said in the advertisement.

In the present case, A knows that he has a very small supply of wheelbarrows, and although he says that stocks are limited, it would seem very likely that A must have known he would not be able to supply the wheelbarrows for a reasonable length of time, or in reasonable quantities, to the customers who would want them.
