Archived Guests trying to price match Dicks $74 GoPro Hero5

[HardlinesHarlot]

Decline this. Shut it down. It's been sold out on their site for quite some time. Who cares if guests throw tantrums. They aren't getting it.

Local store showed they had them, what can you do? If target wants to send a redwire then they better do it quick.

 

[Yetive]

It's already off their site.

If they want to send a redwire they’ll need a time machine too.

 

[OneArmedJesus]

Explains why I had 2 different people ask for that

 

[LUR99]

I am surprised we had no one asking to price match today.

 

[NKG]

Shut down at my store. Its not even the same model.

 

[oath2order]

Ah I too go on Reddit

Fuck No. Denied!

 

[BREAKITOUT]

Can they bring in the print ad for a store that does have them in stock locally?

This is not a good price match and if you do it; pray that you dont get fired over it.

 

[GoodyNN]

Print ad won't tell you that they're in stock at the time the guest is trying to match.

 

[BREAKITOUT]

Simmer. The reason why I'm asking is sk that we can have a reason for denying it. @Nokiddiegloves

@GoodyNN oh right. I assumed that the situation was escalating and the guest was calling the store in front of you. Alright thank you!

We take print ads technically, but I usually have to check online anyway to verify they're in stock. I rarely get print ads though.

 

[BREAKITOUT]

How do you verify the item w/o UPC's or DPCI's bring printed in a local store's ad?

internet. Hence why I don't get why we take them.

technically the in stock rule only applies to ONLINE competitors (Amazon, Walmart.com, etc)

a print ad for a local place doesn't require any verification that they actually have stock

 

[Ajax11]

Even if you didn't want to deny it as a not in stock online item, you could deny it as not matching clearance pricing (75% off).

Though it is a moot point now that dick's website is showing product not available now.

We had at least 20+ phone calls / people in store looking for them this morning. We pulled them from the shelf last night after the first few people were shut down and told them we were sold out.

[spotlife]

I didn't know we price matched Dick's

Per the price match policy we dont price match clearance prices, products not in stock, it does say in the policy stores have the right deny any price match based on a list of things

Don't you need a GSTL or ETL to punch their supervisor number in for a price match this large? I'd think that, ultimately, they'd pay some attention to why there's such a huge discount and ask questions. My GSTLs would have probably caught this before it happened and just told the TM why it couldn't happen without disciplining anybody.

Yep. Which is why it was denied at my store.

 

[MrGSTLman]

Someone tried it with me today. I saw it and almost did it and then ultimately denied it because she told me it was a one day thing (that and I verified it on the app and it wasn't even on there).
