If $4.26 is worth half an hour to an hour of torture to you, then you can match it at Worst Buy.$4.26 shipping too
only best buy price match themDoes anyone else match tigerdirect.com? The stores are on the East Coast (I think) so I can't do it at non-stupid Targets.
Yea right. It takes 3 employees and 2 managers to argue with me about price matching and it always results in me having to call customer service while I'm standing there in the store so that they can tell the store to price match. Even if I show them their own price matching terms they act as if it's foreign to them.If $4.26 is worth half an hour to an hour of torture to you, then you can match it at Worst Buy.
you can only trade in 3 of each platform unless you want trade banned at best buylooks like madden for X1 is listed at $18 now w/ free shipping and $15 off $100 coupon here expires 8/23
TiV @ best buy $25: 6*$18 + tax (dependent on location) = $93 OOP
6*$25 TiV = $150 Best Buy GC
Madden is $20 for PS4 but w/ no free shipping and Ghosts for X1 is $20 but not that good of a MM.
correct, for in-store. however, people have reportedly been able to trade-in 10 copies online and one member stated this is what the manager at his local BB told him. obviously, I would assume the individual would already know this or at least research before investing that amount for a trade-in, so proceed at your risk. this has been discussed at length here and im a newer member than you areyou can only trade in 3 of each platform unless you want trade banned at best buy
It takes 4 regulars and three managers for me. LolYea right.

I decided to stop by after work and give it a try and they actually price matched it for me. The customer service desk (with no line) told me to go to the register to check out and do it, so I had to wait behind 8 people and then the cashier told me I had to go to customer service lol. She ended up calling another employee over who told me I had to show them the ad on my phone as opposed to them just looking it up on their own computer, so I showed them, and then they didn't believe me because it was like $50 off so they brought over a manager who ended up calling the store to find out if it was in stock. I asked what that mattered since I could just order it online and the manager said $50 off makes no sense and they would not price match it without speaking to a manager at Tigerdirect to verifiy that the price on the website was correct.It takes 4 regulars and three managers for me. Lol
It's better to do it by phone. One guy was matching it for me after trying to look for any typo or semi-questionable detail on the page for 30 minutes and he finally pulled one from his ass and he said that the item was in a third party warehouse so he wouldn't do it. The one after that straight up told me that they don't price match unless there is a physical store with stock and she did it after I told her the retailers that were on the list.

just about 30 minutes later, I paid for the game and got out.
Frys electronics doesDoes anyone else match tigerdirect.com? The stores are on the East Coast (I think) so I can't do it at non-stupid Targets.
Yeah I have gotten to the point where I'll buy something but hate to use a coupon or PM of any kind, they act like it's some crazy new thing to work with. And don't get me started on game trades. Game trading in there takes at minimum 30 minutes.Sounds just like a typical Worst Buy story.

Back in stockOut of stock
What was the reason?I was unable to successfully PM this as well. I think I am officially done with Best Buy, they were never the best but they've really gone downhill in the past couple of years. Unless they have something for sale directly that I want I just don't see myself going back again.
They told me they only PM Amazon and local ads. I showed them the policy online and was told that was relevant to Bestbuy.com only. I showed them where it distincly said "in store purchases" and they said that meant their store pickup option.What was the reason?
LOLQ: How many best buy employees does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: None. Because they're too busy screwing you.
It was easy to price match Tiger Direct's BF4 price but when I called back to do the same for Ghosts...they weren't having it. & I quote the CS women "I'm hanging up now" lol this happened while I was reading their LPG termsAnyone try price matching this online? Was thinking about ordering from BB's website (store pickup) but there's a number to call, to get the PM value verified.
Wondering if that's easier than physically going into the B&M store and trying to PM it there.
I just had the same thing happen to me, the woman said because Ghosts is from a 3rd party seller they couldn't do it. Might have better luck in store with someone who doesn't know what they're doing, it's hidden under the details section and I didn't even notice it myself.It was easy to price match Tiger Direct's BF4 price but when I called back to do the same for Ghosts...they weren't having it. & I quote the CS women "I'm hanging up now" lol this happened while I was reading their LPG terms
Where do you see this, because I do not.I just had the same thing happen to me, the woman said because Ghosts is from a 3rd party seller they couldn't do it.

Where it says "Shipping: Usually Ships Within 24 Hours (Details)" if you mouse over the details section it says in stock from a 3rd party warehouse. Again, since it's hidden like that, I doubt a employee in store will catch it, but the woman on the phone seemed to catch it almost instantly.Where do you see this, because I do not
That's some BS. It is still sold and shipped by Tiger Direct, they are just using a 3rd party warehouse to hold their items. It doesn't mean they aren't the seller or the shipper. It isn't like amazon where they allow other people/companies to sell through their site.Where it says "Shipping: Usually Ships Within 24 Hours (Details)" if you mouse over the details section it says in stock from a 3rd party warehouse.

exactly this cause by this logic alot of places would not be price match able since alot of retails stores even brick n mortar stores are using drop shippers anymoreThat's some BS.

I went to a bestbuy today and got shot down based on this. The manager(?) brought that up. I never noticed that, but to me it sounded like it was just an offsite warehouse. He kept insisting it was a 3rd party seller like Amazon has even though I tried to reason that Amazon has the actual sellers listing. I gave up because I figured I wasn't getting anywhere with him.That's some BS. It is still sold and shipped by Tiger Direct, they are just using a 3rd party warehouse to hold their items.
