If something is advertised at bestbuy.com for a certain price, will they sell it to me for that in the store?

Can't you choose to pick it up in the store, after you pay for it online?

Not with this particular product. it says "Not available for store pickup."

It looks like you're covered under their "Online Price Guarantee" when you pick it up at a B&M store:

Online Price Guarantee ? At this time we do not have a price match guarantee. However, if you purchase an item online or at an in-store kiosk and choose in-store pick up, and the item is offered at a lower price when you pick it up, you will be charged the lower price.

EDIT: nvm, didn't see that it wasn't avail. for pickup

That means it is not carried in the B&M stores most likely.

I saw it there last week, at a price $30 higher than what it's listed for online.

This is the easiest way. What item are you looking for?
I am guessing a head unit? :(

If it got shifted to "Not Available for Store Pick Up" then stock levels must be real low on it. I would either order it off of .com (Free Shipping) or possibly go into the store and see if they might work with you on a substitute. I know when I run across that situation I often will offer to meet the customer halfway on the next one up. Really depends on your stores management.

Have you checked if Officemax or Staples carries the router? Their B&M stores are known to PM.
