How receptive are dealers to buying something today/tommorow, and coming back friday morning for a return/rebuy price adjust?

Call the local store and ask... some will, some won't.

My local Best Buy is not accepting returns on Friday.

If you want to buy a loss leader, you're probably not going to be able to avoid waiting in line like everyone else.

A lot of stores aren't accepting returns during the sale time - and since the prices are only good from 8-10am or something, you won't be able to pricematch it since they won't take your return for you to rebuy back.

I have done it at all the stores I been to and made sure to ask them again this year just in case they changed their policy.

Did you call the store or are you just saying this?

Gotcha, thanks.

I dont watch tv or read hard newspaper, so I kinda miss out on popular advertising.

I forget where I saw that, but I don't think its been in the newspaper or on TV, so most people probably missed it.

Yeah, it was in an obscure Yahoo news article. I'm sure that'll really help people to know they're doing that. Then again, its not something I would necessarily advertise if I were a business, but I guess if you get the sale and not someone else then its good good for ya.

I've done it at Best Buy for the last 5 years now. Doing it again this year with that 20" LCD TV they have.

Not if you're selling everyone else's loss leaders. ;)

OK, scored the 20" LCD TV for my return/rebuy on Friday at BB. I'll let you know how it goes.
