I was trying to look Cosco's TV selection on the Costco.ca website and noticed that the Panasonic Viera line of plasmas, which i know they have since i've been in the store, are not listed at all.

Just wondering if anyone knows why they wouldnt list all their products...i just find it really odd that such a large company would not index their products properly.

I believe that many of the items are in store only and online only, hence the lack of then being on the site. They want you to come into the store and spend spend spend!

I notice there is a slight difference of items by just going to 2 different stores.

The online store and the B&M store are two different businesses. Just like chapters.

Also if something is out of stock it will be taken off the web site but in this case I don't recall ever seeing the Veira plasmas listed on their site.

Thats somewhat strange as normally all stores are priced the same but have different selection.

Online and instore always have different price because online includes shipping.
