I have no doubt that the covers cost them much less than they sell them for and that this is the only reason they are offering this deal at all, so I'm surprised they took the price of the cover off for you--especially since you were requesting the most expensive cover of all those they sell (most of the covers being a lot less than $50)!

Skillful shopping.
I ran into the exact same problem but after calling Bestbuy reward zone customer service and explaining the that the cover has been discontinued, and all the other issues I have had with my local best buy in regards to price matching (i.e. wouldnt even match another best buy because it was in another district.) They sent me a $50 coupon so it evens out. It didnt hurt that they had my purchase history in front of them for the last year
