Hey all,
If anyone has this page saved, or has a screenie of it, do u think u can send it to me so i can try to pricematch? It'd be greatly appreciated.. and its worth a shot.

Email it to me at theguyh@hotmail.com, or message me on AIM at GuyHersh.

Thanks all!

Guy

I tried to PM it with CC and they denied it due to FAO being outside of a 20 mile radias from me. I then tried to do it as a Internet PM but they shot me down because they would only PM the big names - Amazon, Sears, Best Buy etc.

Well, I'm within that radius... they denied any internet PM outright and when faced I told them they were a retail B&M too, they said no PM unless it's a "local" competitor. Best Buy denied also saying that they only PM ads... but then I've had BBY deny a PM to their own website various times.

 
Well, I tried the pricematch during lunch today at a local BB and Circuit City. BB gave the lame excuse of "We don't match internet ads." When I told them that was the price at the local FAO they said, "It's probably a refurb and we don't match those." Gee, nice customer first policy there by assuming.

So, I went to Circuit City and they at least gave the intelligent declination of "They're going out of business so we can't match that."

Oh well, worth a shot.
 
I went to CC, they did "kind of" match price. Obviously someone else did it before me, manager set the rule: you pay $100, you get $30 gift check, no bundle game. Overally, still ok deal. I am in Louisiana.

Here is I copy from other site, if you live in SF Bay Area, CA:
"PM at Best Buy I just PM at my local (SF Bay Area) Best Buy. They gave me the Mario Sunshine bundle. (159 price). Good luck."

 
Disappeared from their site between my successful search(but loaded a blank page) at 3:47 and my unsuccessful search(didn't pop up in search results, used same search term) at 3:48

I'm debating printing this off and trying it over at my local CC or even BB.
It will only work if you have an FAO by you. Trust me
Did you try it already and get shot down?

No I did it in NYC and got it at CC. IT was a struggle and argument but I ended up taking 3 when tehy told me that I could do it. Haha I beat the system.

I'm in NYC also and we obviously have an FAO...which CC did you get it at? Do you have your receipt?
 
Tried my luck with a PM at the Day Drive Circuit City in Parma Ohio. No dice. I was told "we don't PM internet prices." No big deal, gonna stop by the Circuit City in Maple Heights and see if I can get a PM there. Also, for anyone that has gotten a PM to this, could you possibly scan and post your receipt? Maybe having a receipt with the PM on it would help. Thanks.
 
Hey Kaervak let us know if you have any luck PM'ing. I am in the Cleveland area and will be all over that if you can pull it off!
 
I noticed Circuit City has these for $129.99 now - So if you bought to pricematch like me, you can get $22 dollars back (110% pricematching policy...)

Great Deal!!!
 
Wow. This is a great deal with a little bit of luck.
Although there is no FAO in my area so I am probably not gonna have a chance...
 
If someone has the receipt from the pricematch to CC, would we be able to use that to pricematch to other CC's?
