Best Buy 20" Sony Wega Deal

[cleodog]

I got in on the deal for $249 w/$75 rebate and chose in-store pick up. Then got an email saying that I would save an extra $50 for picking it up but this was not reflected in the price quoted in the email.

When I went to the store to pick it up, the manager refused to let it go at $199 even though I had all the documentation w/me. Any suggestions on what to do now?

call the best buy.com people and ask them to clarify and if it comes down to it, have the store ppl call the bestbuy.com people

Check out fatwallet.com on this matter. Apparently this was a badly worded e-mail that essentially says that by ordering it online and picking it up in the store, you saved $50 VS. going to store directly and picking it up. In other words, the online price was $249 and the in-store price is $299. Dumb, I know. So the price is the same whether or not you picked up the tv or delivered it. Alot of people are upset over this...but I got the tv. It is still great!
