Default Bizarre behavior at Amazon

There have been a number of negative posts about Amazon recently. Well,
this is one more.

Woodcraft has the Triton 3.25hp router for $200, while Amazon is $255.
Amazon's policy on their website is that they will beat anyone's price by
10% of the difference. Not a great policy (Lowes beats prices by 10%, not
just the difference), but not bad.

I tried to take them up on it, and they denied they had such a policy.
I sent them a link to the policy on their website.
They still denied they have such a policy.

When they resort to simply telling stupid lies, it is time to shop
elsewhere; the occasional bargain isn't worth it.


I went to amazon's help pages and under pricing they say this:

Price Matching

Amazon.com does not have a price-matching policy at this time. We do,
however, consistently work toward maintaining competitive prices on
everything we carry.


So me thinks you have a link to an outdated page that you cannot get
to from the main page, that probably shouldn't be there anymore.
