Like I said in the last post, the only time I've seen a price drop is when it comes to beating competition...and I did my time working retail at Sears, so I'm well aware of the industry practices when it comes to pricing an item.

But very rarely do they have to lower a Price to beat the Competition. In the instances where Lowe's, Home Depot, Menards or Wal-Mart have the same product, there will be a different part number on it. Then they can say that is a different product - no price match, no 10% back price guarantee
