Who did you talk to? Because the person I just chatted with now said "Oh its in store only and 1 per household we dont do that" I think it depends on the person you talk to
Also..with microcenter online what store did you choose, for me Tustin is out of stock so I chose Denver to at least show them they have it

He’s probably the only lucky one

Like the one guy who got apple store to PM

Eh I don’t see it as luck. Microcenter is an official competitor to Best Buy per their policy, and this is no longer a ‘black friday’ deal.

Cool so I just have to hope to get that person LOL..when you gave her/him the link to microcenter what store did you select? Right now I have Denver up since Tustin does NOT have them in stock

None. I used the default link which goes to the web store. I don't believe the store info saves to the URL.

Unfortunately they may not respect that and just balk at a discount on apple products period. Not saying you’re doing anything shady, just that BB may not comply as you’ve already experienced
 
I gave this link, they said give them 2-3 minutes to verify, then came pack with the comment I attached above.

Do you have a Best Buy store nearby? I much prefer to buy something like this in person than risk shipping.

I havent gotten one person at best buy to price match..keep on being told the 1 item per household thing on microcenters site kills the price match otherwise they would do it

Allow me to clear up some of the confusion....

Best Buy has had no issues PM Micro Center UNTIL about 6 months ago when Micro Center almost permenantly dropped the price of the Macbook Air line by $150. This represented an “anomoly” as no other retailer was doing so and stores started losing alot of Direct Profit. So what what many store’s did was say that they could NOT match MC because now it wasn’t an actual PM it was inboarding.

Now heres the kicker. There is no actual COMPANY EDICT that states Best Buy does not PM MC. Its up to store discretion. So if you were to chat with BB.com and get a confirmation of PM. Print that chat out and take it into a store. They will honor the PM (grudgingly)

I guess I was lucky? The micro center store is literally around the corner from Best Buy so maybe that plays a factor? I didn’t even have to haggle, he said he could do it from the start.

Definitely does. If you don’t have micro center store in your town BB will not when says ‘in store only’.
