They have to say thats the lowest it will go. At target they had 15 ubp's and the next day they were gone. The very next day after that they were out in the clearance for $38 for about a week or so then they were gone. I was told they sold them all. One week later there they were all of them reduced to $13. Most of the time the people working there dont know whats going on around them because they dont care.

The employees/managers at big box retail stores have no idea what is going to lower in price until they get the daily price updates from coporate. I know I used to work for Kmart in WV. The manager at the store does not set prices, changes are sent in each morning. Sometime the same product price will go up or down several days in a row. It is one of the reason you find a lot of incorrect shelf tags in those places. It is really hard for store staff to keep up. And as far as the manager having any idea what the next price will be? Forget it. They know less about the merchandise they carry than anyone else in the store. They are just there to keep the minimum wage scale employees in line.

You're right about that.
As far as customer service goes it would have been nice if they had taken my name and number and called me when/if the price went down further. But this is Wal-Mart we're talking about. |

Dude these people get paid like .50 cents above minimum wage!!!!! Do you have any idea what that is? It's like $7 bucks an hour. Do you think anyone who makes that little gives a flying pig in hell? Would you?
