Since it's a little slow -- here's a tip that could be useful to some people. I just bought a treadmill on amazon, then two days later the price lowered by $68 (!!!!). Amazon refused to make an adjustment because they've changed their policy to only adjust for TVs. I did some googling, and it turns out that most major credit cards offer "price protection" -- so Discover is actually going to reimburse me the difference -- all I had to do was upload pdfs of my invoice, the new price page, and my credit card transaction :thumbup:

Are you sure about the TV thing? My wife and are avid Amazon shoppers and have used the price guarantee very often, even for less than a dollar difference. From my understanding it used to be within a month and they lowered it to only items sold or sourced from Amazon within 7 days. It can also only be matched one time per item.

I bought a Bowflex last year for around $775 and price matched it after 3 days for $700. Then at 9 days in, it was listed at $450 so I called them and let them know I had pictures to show the damaged box and would be happy to disassemble it as much as possible and drop it off at UPS and order a new one, or we could just save everyone the hassle and they could give me the difference. Saved over $300 total!

But yeah I haven't seen any changes for their policy, that's really weird that you had trouble but glad your card services took care of you!
