Amazon Do not sell Kindle price in BestBuy store
I visited my local BestBuy store today and found interesting price tag for Amazon Kindles - $999.99 . I don't think they sold many units for this price...

I was outraged, until I saw the promo in the bottom left of the second picture. Much more reasonable price of only $799.99 with 20% off.

I think they should offer the option to negotiate the price

Maybe they pay you to read the ads?

No, it must be a special limited edition model with extra-special bells and whistles.
