[Best Buy] Polk RC60i speakers PM with Amazon.ca YMMV

Deal Link:: https://www.amazon.ca/Polk-Audio-RC60i- ... dpSrc=srch
Price:: 80.99

Here's a deal on a pair of Polk Audio RC60i 6.5" In-Ceiling Speakers. Priced will be $80.99 at Best Buy if you can get them to price match Amazon.ca -- I was able to and purchased in-store. You can try online and get free delivery?

Polk Audio RC60i 2-Way In-Ceiling Speakers (Pair, White) currently at $109.99 Ships from and sold by Amazon.ca

https://www.amazon.ca/Polk-Audio-RC60i- ... dpSrc=srch

Price match at Best Buy, who has it at an insane price of $399.99. There will be a huge price difference and that is where you will find all your savings.

https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/po ... 43776.aspx?

399.99-109.99=290.00 price difference * 10% = 29.00
109.99-29.00= 80.99 price after PM - 10% price difference

You pay $80.99 before taxes and extra fees

Price on Amazon.ca will probably change to higher if people start to buy them there. These have been as low at $99 at Amazon.ca (according to a thread in November 2017).

Not much of any problems today. Had to go to 3 stores to get everything; picked up 5 sets (Landsdown/Richmond, Marine Drive/Vancouver and Cambie/Vancouver). Stores only had 1 or 2 sets in stock. Need the speakers for an upcoming project. Had to only enforce the 10% price beat at the Cambie store as they initially didn't do the correct calculation. The Richmond store salesguy let me off with $80.00 (extra 99 cents off -- I didn't want to correct his maths).

Definitively super cheap for good enough speakers. For something a bit better you have the MC60 that are 58$.

I'm envious of the US best buy that occasionally has the polk VT60 aka V60 for 60$ USD ea, a real nice upgrade to the MCs

The Gibby's version is $58 sold single but both have pretty similar specs

With time, everything will go on sale...

I got the MC85 and MC80s, they're good enough for surround sound, very happy with them. Installation and quality is also much easier than el cheapo Monoprice and similar speakers.

Great looking deal. I wish I could jump on this. I'm planning to put some in ceilings on our main floor throughout the kitchen/family room for ambient music and these look perfect. Unfortunately at this time I can't justify spending the money on 6 of them. Arg. Thanks for posting though!

Was able to Price match, but had to argue a bit. BB's cost price is 139.99 on the speakers. At first they said yes, then manager came back and said no, I as a manager have the right to refuse any price match especially if its below our cost. I simply said no problems, can you please show me in writing, after 10 minutes, another guy came with "passwords" and adjusted prices.
