I am trying to buy an item at Amazon, but Buy has it lower. Do I have to place the order, then call Amazon for them to price match? I have been looking through their Help Desk area and cannot find anything about this on their site. Any help would be appreciated.

To the best of my knowledge, I don't believe Amazon price matches...

Thanks Jellis. I e-mailed them anyway and gave them the URL to the page with the same item. I'll have to see what they say.

Amazon does not pricematch. It seems only buy.com is left that does pricematching and now they dont pricematch if you use a coupon.

S-D-Z-C, Beware of ScAmazons' "price increases" after you place your order (if you do)

One word of warning for Buy.com's price-matching policy:

They only offer price-matching within 24 hours of placing your order!

Otherwise, forget it!

As much as i dislike buy.com, id have to admit they have the cheapest pre-order prices to begin with as well as cheaper prices in general. Still doesnt excuse their lack of customer service though.
