Last note… Contrary to popular disbelief, ask retailers who pay salespeople on commission to match wholesale prices (such as pacific sales/costco)… Some say they don’t do this. Hogwash…The difference is whether the salesman wants his/her commission or not and how quickly he/she can ture the sales.

If you walk in with the model number in hand, with the price in hand, and give the salesperson confidence that you’ll purchase if you get your price and won’t take longer than 15 mins of his time, more than likely he/she will do it (since most people “shopping” for appliances never buy the first time in the store, and rarely return to buy from the same salesperson.
