Outdoors Price match

Why is it that stores say they'll match any price so I give them one that's 100$ cheaper and they say they can't because it's not an ONLINE store. The product is a radeon 9500 pro, thier price is 399$ (with 30$ mail in is 369$) the price I sent them was 299$ and they won't honor it, So I've sent them 2 more one at 285 but it's OEM, the other is 309 boxed. Just makes me mad that they say they will honor it, but then they won't. Have many people run into this, I always get a hum and a harr about price match. It's not identical, thiers has a different serial number blah blah, cheap ....... I'll end there, no need for profanity

Hmmm... I only did this once.
I ordered an AMP from Musicians Friends and they have this match price thingie.! The thing is that the AMP I ordered was later on sale (the same week) by them!

I told them this and they gave me a $65 credit.! Cool.!

That's the only time I did it so I don't have the same pain in the ass experience. But, different shops have different rules. That's why it is always good to read everything (yeah... even the little print that is only for lawyers!! )

Dear Mike,

Thank you for your interest in CompuSmart.

Unfortunately we cannot match the price as Signa is not selling the same
version that we carry. Signa has the OEM version while we have the full
version.
Unfortunately we cannot match the price with Premier Computer as they are
selling this item below our cost price.

I hope that this information will help and please feel free to contact us
again should you require any further information.
Please come back and visit us soon again at www.compusmart.com


Best Regards
Walter Carreiro

They can't beat 309$, yet I can get it for 285, I was trying to get it locally as I don't like getting things shipped, but oh well, guess I have no choice now but to get it shipped.

Smart Price - Guaranteed!

We shop the competition so you don't have to. We can match any price but believe that no one can match our service.

If you find an advertised price or you find a locally advertised price on the internet from any authorized Canadian dealer that is lower than our price, we will gladly match it at time of purchase or within 14 days of purchase. The advertised item must be new and factory sealed and subject to a manufacturer's warranty applicable in Canada. Advertised prices will be calculated as including all charges applicable for next day delivery to your home address. Our SmartPrice Guarantee does not apply to restricted quantity or time limited offers, special financing offers, special educational prices, special bundles, free offers, misprints, mail-order offers, rebates, coupons, OEM products, liquidations or close outs. If our own price drops within 14 days of your purchase, we will also refund the difference to you.

Simply present us with your original CompuSmart or CompuSmart.com receipt and the proof of lower advertised price.Once our staff has been able to verify that the item is in stock and available for immediate sale and delivery at the advertised price, you will receive your refund or price match on the spot.
From thier store, where does it say that they won't beat it at a loss.

$285 seems way too much for a 9500 Pro.
