Extendable display hanger

Abstract

In some embodiments, a display hanger includes a post, a product support moveable relative to the post between a retracted position and an extended position, and a biasing member biasing the product support to the retracted position. A shopper may manually move the product support to the extended position to visually inspect products hanging on the product support.
