I just got the S200 from Staples today. I pricematched it to Digital Liquidators which has it for $219.00 w/ free FedEx Overnight Delivery. With Staples' 110% PM guarantee, the $30 off $200 coupon and 8.25% sales tax, I ended up paying $195.82.
Here's the breakdown:
$299.98 - $89.08 (110% PM) - $30 (coupon) + 14.92 (sales tax) = $195.82
Here are some potential trouble spots you might hit. Hence, YMMV:
1) Out of the 4 stores I went to, 2 insisted that company policy dictated that they could not sell items below their cost basis ($248 and $254, respectively) and would only PM to their cost.
2) I tried ridiculously hard to get Staples to accept a $50 off $200 coupon, but given that I only had the coupon number and not the actual, physical coupon, they would not accept it - same deal with the $40 off $200 coupon. Get your hands on a printable $40 or $50 off IF at all possible.
3) The S200 was backordered at one store. FYI, the sales associate mentioned that most West Coast stores had little or no inventory of S200's while East Coast stores had a lot more.
Good luck!
