(Copy & Pasted from B&N message boards) but written by me.

This is what happened to me by buying from Best Buy, and I'm glad I did.

I just love Best Buy. Looked this morning and seen the price drop on the nook, called the 1-800# and they gave me a price adjustment of $64.86 over the phone. So you have 30 days for a price adjustment with Best Buy.

If you bought in store I think you have to go to the store, I bought my nook online and picked up in store, so they did it over the phone.

I've lost count how much money I saved, Sold kindle for $250, bought nook for $259 + tax, got a $50 gift card, got $62 bing cashback, and the $64.86 adjustment. If I would of kept my kindle I know I had it too long to get a price adjustment from Amazon.

I think B&N is only going back 14 days for a price adjustment.

Hope this helps
