at costco it is 114.99
http://www.costco.ca/en-CA/Browse/Product.aspx?prodid=10290596&whse=BCCA&topnav=&cat=

so.... 35bux difference... 10% on that would be $3.50

so when you buy it from futureshop... i get it priced matched at 115-3.50 = 111.50 and you get the shipping?

Yep, that's if it could be purchased without a membership or they'll say this sales is limited to members, and FS doesn't require one sort of BS....

Quite a good price for it too.

don't think stooples carries this online, (maybe instore)?

but when/if stooples carries it, try the PM there... i'd think ur chances of PMing vs. Costco at stooples is much higher than at FS... (still YMMV tho)

I dont think FS price matches Costco although you could get lucky on a case to case basis. I believe they dont match liquidators, wholesellers, privet sellers, blah blah...

[muffin]

You could potentially argue that their online store allows for anyone to buy, +5%. That would still put it above $115 (approximately $117) but that would still let you use GCs etc.

About time costco has the 2gb version though.

Once I have tried , they said we don't do the price match. May be any one got it because costco have no weekly flyer.

[Saleem]

Because costco don't have any weekly flyer so future shop either another store is not doing price match with costco. just because of weekly flyer.

I was in Bestbuy on Saturday and I asked if they will price match with Costco, the girl told me as long as the produt is identical then they will honour the price. but I guess its a crapshoot, if they feel it's too low of a deal they'll say no. and use the membership policy crap.

best of luck.

That's right, as long as there is a profit to be made, they wouldn't give a damn what the policies state. Happened to me once when I tried to pm 6 identical products at once. Competitor only had 2 in stock so they made me do 3 different PM attempts and kept calling the same place to check stocks. The manager originally stated that he would give me a slightly higher price per item and let me get all 6 at once but I said that ain't following the policies, so he said fine, I'll follow them but you'll have to do it 3 different times. Didn't bother me, I had all the time I needed. :D In the end I got them all.

BTW: Last time I asked to PM Costco at Staples, she gave me the BS membership excuse. I pointed at the PM policy and say, show me exactly where it states you excluding wholesalers. She shutted up and a moment she said ok fine.

I know Best Buy does not price match with Costco!

Don't get what ya mean buddy.

ur not alone...
i'm also utterly confused at what he's trying to say :lol:

[pgo]

might be even worse experience than PM against Costco ... lol

but higher chance of success since no membership excuses.


still, that's more for the locals, since for every1 else FS will likely apply s/h charges 1st, then do PM.

I've gotten BestBuy to price match against Amazon.ca, if you stay come and state facts you'll get your price match, just need to push a bit.

Just got this PMed at Futureshop. The person at the counter entered $110 for the price (109.98 to be exact). I figured I'd have to haggle a bit, but none of that.
