Here's another deal: For those of you who don't have the First episode (Phantom Menace) and would like to have it. Buy it now at CC for $22.99. Next week, when you go there for the second episode, request a 30 day 110% pricematching (it's their policy) with their own price (next week CC will have that DVD for $14.99), you will get it at about 13.99
OK, ex BB employe here:
Pricematching: any company will NOT do the 110% or 105% or whatever on their own price. they will only mark it down to the price it is now.
BB: Like most stores, BB makes sure the product is in stock at the other store. We do not, NOT, tell them we are BB employes when we call. Like
vtqanh said, BB has an un-godly amount of new dvds. its sickning. so, when TRU or CUSA runs out (they just make that low price to get you in the store) we cant sell it at that price. BB will make their price as low as the lowest super stocker so, there are less price matches. they dont want to have their reps pricematching constantly. it would be cheaper to just make the dvd cheaper, than to pay the reps to lower the price $.50. they also like to compete. if you have notice lower prices at BB for some odd reason, they are just adjusting the price to equal the rebated price at another store near by.
Price: EVERY store that has this under $17 is selling it under cost most likely. They lower the price to, A: get you in the store, and B: make its customers happy.
$.50: do you really need to spend your life in line at a desk waiting to price match the DVD to $.50 cheaper?? its not worth it. youl get mad when the other store is OOS (out of stock), the rep will get mad at you when you get mad at them, your stress will rais(over some stupid $.50), yould have a heart attack/stroke, and die/have brain damage. all for 2 quorters. is it worth it? no.
Just my crapping/informing.
