I just went to Circuit City and tried to get them to price match against EB World which is across the street. Mad Maestro ($19.99 vs EB $9.99) I had brought in the print out off of EB's web site which stated the $9.99 price.
They said they don't do pricematching against web sites. I called the 1-800-251-2665 customer number, and they said the same thing.
Here is what Circuit City's web site says:
Nothing's worse than paying too much. That's why we do everything in our power to make sure you don't pay a penny more than you should for anything you buy at Circuit City. If you've seen a lower advertised price from a local store with the same item in stock, we want to know about it. Bring it to our attention, and we'll gladly beat their price by 10% of the difference. Even after your Circuit City purchase, if you see a lower advertised price (including our own sale prices) within 30 days, we'll refund 110% of the difference.
The Word "Advertised" has a link on it, and when you click it, this is what it says.
Advertised price - Any printed or electronically broadcast price that is verifiable and made available to the general public. Special offers or promotions do not qualify. This includes, but is not limited to, rebates, free-with-purchase offers, and special financing.
I asked the lady, what did "electronically broadcast price" mean. She said she did not know, but they could not pricematch vs another web site. Right now I am waiting for a call back from her boss. I thanked her for her time, and I told her I appreciated her helping me. (I disagree, but it is not worth being rude about it.)
Does anyone know if Circuit City does pricematch online? Or am I just reading this wrong?
Thanks,
