1. An apparatus for inhibiting dislocation of an Electronic Shelf Label (ESL) assembly,
wherein said ESL assembly is mounted onto a member of a retail basket, said ESL assembly comprising
an Electronic Shelf Label (ESL) attached to a basket clip, said clip adapted to be mounted on a retail basket member via a basket clip engaging portion that grips said member of retail basket,
said apparatus for inhibiting dislocation comprising
a long planar section and a short planar section, said sections connected at an angle,
said long planar section comprising an outer and inner face,
said short planar section comprising an outer and inner face
at least one rear planar lip connected to said short section,
said rear lip comprising an outer and inner face,
at least one bottom planar tongue connected to said long section,
said bottom tongue comprising an outer and inner face,
wherein, in operating mode, said apparatus is affixed to said ESL assembly so that said rear lip's inner face abuts a rear portion of said basket clip engaging portion, said short section's inner face abuts a top portion of said ESL, said long section's inner face abuts a front face of said ESL, and said bottom tongue's inner face abuts a bottom portion of said ESL,
said apparatus being firmly attached to said ESL assembly so that said basket clip engaging portion is constricted on said retail basket member to inhibit dislocation of said ESL assembly off said retail basket member.
