you pricematched it with the prices that best buy offered for their 7-noon sale? wow... that was a good idea. i had no idea that 800.com would do that. i think its a little late for the rest of us, though.

How the hell did you accomplish this? I was told when I called 800.com that they won't price match movies and music. I even gave him the website to this very page and he said that you were all lying. Are you guys lying or did I just get the shaft?

What are you thinking, dude?
Don't point any CSR's to this message board!!

Just tell them a friend was able to pricematch earlier or something!

Maybe I'm wrong here, but I don't think we need them knowing of these sites (if they don't already know!). ;)

Here is the link to their Price Matching Policy. I ordered tonight around 9:30pm EST.

800.COM offers price matching for consumer electronics products. If you find a lower, verifiable Internet price on a consumer electronic product from any of the following authorized Internet dealers on any product we have in stock, call our Price Desk at 800-327-5815 and we will match their price.

BestBuy.com
CameraWorld.com
CircuitCity.com
Crutchfield.com
Hifi.com
JandR.com
OneCall.com
Tweeter.com
Vanns.com
If you find a lower price from an authorized Internet dealer not listed above, please give us a call. Our Price Desk operators are available 7 days a week. The product must be a make and model we carry, and it must be in stock, both in our fulfillment center and in stock at the other Internet dealer's warehouse. Price match quotes will include all charges needed to receive the product from the other dealer (including shipping charges, membership fees or other required purchases). Special offers are not eligible for price matching.
Please note, 800.COM does not match prices from unauthorized Internet dealers. To inquire about a price match, simply call 800-327-5815.

We continually monitor the movie and music prices of our competitors in an effort to provide the best overall values in this area, and we do not price match for movies and music at this time.

Call me stupid but even with "pricematch" 800.com DVDs that you pricematched came out more expensive than BB with tax.
I paid 72 cents tax on U-571 which means for those two DVDs it would be $1.44 and you paid $2.90 shipping.
BB has free shipping.
And plus you had to go through the hassle of pricematch.
As I said call me stupid but BB is much better deal.

Desc: MEN IN BLACK-COLLECTORS SERDV
Extended Amount: $11.99
Desc: BRAVEHEART (DVD) WS ENHANCEDV
Extended Amount: $11.99
Shipping & Handling: $2.90
Order Total: $26.88

I work there and we DO NOT PRICE MATCH MEDIA. Electronics are cool, but we will not and never have we price matched DVD's, CD's, etc.

Ok, it was the last sentence in their Policy and I did not read down that far. Guess I, like many in this forum, saw what I wanted to see and then ran with it. My mistake, I will edit the post.
