They dont price match like they used to. Cheaper to buy online.

They never really price matched the way I thought they should have.

Because they no longer price match.

Example if I go to Buy a Slingbox Solo its $179 at Best Buy, however the same unit is $134.95 on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000VXKD8K/?tag=satell01-20

Best Buy will not price match it, even though it is shipped by Amazon and is Amazon Prime. They say its not being sold by Amazon, which I say is poppy cock, I am paying Amazon and Amazon is shipping it to me not a 3rd party. And they say no. So many products are like this now on Amazon and they just say too bad... so I say too bad and no longer shop there, which is too bad for them as I usually purchased items I didn't plan on buying while I was in there, so now they are really losing money.

I would have no problem with their policy if the item was not shipped from Amazon or you had to check out at a different site to order that item.

So long Best Buy.
