Why don't we just pricematch to really crappy but cheap internet sites?

If a store offers pricematching with a website, why don't more people just pricematch with those websites that advertise something for like $300 lower than the norm, but are really just bait and switch websites?

or why not create our own bunk site with obscenely low prices 🙂

if your credit card offers price portection you can

make a bunk site with everything under 50$ 🙂 mmmm AMD64 4000 50$ ......

Becuase there are very few (if any) B&M places that PM to websites anymore due to this very fact. Web stores pricematch sometimes, but you have to make a federal case out of it :|

Which B&M stores pricematch to websites?

IIRC, they have a list of approved sites they can pricematch too...if that vendor is not on the list, you are SOL...

Also Staples will charge you the shipping costs that the Online site charges as well...
