    Yes, take the computer and receipt back to Best Buy. They'll refund the difference.

    And if the person says they don't do that, return it, then buy the same thing. Or, just ask for a manager, that usually works. (that kind of thing happened once)

    Best Buy has a 30-day "Price Match" policy. If something you buy sells for less to the general public through a "brick-and-mortar" store (or even Best Buy themselves) they will refund the difference for 30 days.

    Went in on the 15th day, was told I had 30 days. Either way I got $250 back!

    That IS weird. People on this forum couldnt get their money back on their 6860 after the 15th day, even some that were told it was 30 days
