This all seems a little shady to me, it seems as though I'm expected to bargain my way down to a fair deal, which is absolutely ridiculous. Has anyone dealt with them before?
Yes, a lot of product is tagged at MSRP. But if you check some websites (Sears, Futureshop etc.) they also list most product at MRSP value. A company has every right to sell something at that price or lower. We also say right on the tags that our price may not be reflected by the MSRP. Sometimes all you have to do is ask.
