Over the last several months I've been going into and calling my local HD to try and pick up on some of the clearance pricing you guys have been talking about. I've been successful ZERO times.
First it was the table saw R4511. Local store had 2 in inventory on computer but couldn't find any in the store. I looked around the store in the stacks and couldn't find any there either. Later on they told me the two R4511's still on their computers were actually shipped to another regional store.
Then it was the drill press , band saw , and jointer . They have all of these items in store but NONE of them ring up with ANY discounts in their computers.
Now, today I called them and had them look up SKU # 428428 for pricing on the RIDGID 6 1/8 In. Stationary Jointer/Planer model # JP0610 .
Low and behold they look up the SKU # and the first thing she said was "it's on clearance" . So I get excited and ask what the price is and it's $429.00 . She eventually hooked me up with the manager that explained to me whatever was in the computer they had to go by. He also added that since it just went on clearance that it would PROBABLY start dropping in price but when I told him the about the $ 199.00 clearance price it sounded like he thought I was joking.
I give up !!! Anyone else having these kinds of experiences when trying to take advantage of the Ridgid clearance pricing at HD or is it just me ?
