Why does NCIX never approve ASPMs?

I've submitted over 10 requests for ASPM and not one of them has come back where they matched it 100%.

It's always some alternate offer that's $0.xx (less than a buck) lower than their "sale" price.

Has anyone ever gotten a decent PM done there?

I ASPMed Direct Canada once (forgot what item) and I thought it would take less than 24 hours to approve/reject as it says in their e-mail. In the end it was approved after almost a week and by that time I already bought it from somewhere else.

once I LOL so hard when they rejected ASPM but on their weekly sale page, same item was on sale for even lower than what I wanted to PM.
This was back in the days when they had different SKU# for sale priced.

You find deals that are too hot. Most of my ASPMs have been for things that are roughly NCIX's usual sale prices which just happen to not be on sale that week. The only reason I do it is to save on shipping and to get things sooner.
