Sylvania for $128.88
Samsung BDP-P1500 for $168.88
Costco attempted to best match the Sammy by offering it for $199.99 today.
BTW, I dislike the feeling I get when I walk into a Brandsmart. Dare I say its worse than Bad Buy, Circuit sh*tty, and HiFi Lies. Nice that the last two have died out.
BTW, this one was in Buford, GA (30518).

Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. Give them a year before they go under if they don't put their prices up. I know BB worked on an average 22% margin, I saw the charts when I was working at their head office. Extended warranties are way higher than the 22%, so are accessories. I think computers have the lowest margin.

These are Grand Opening specials, not regular prices. I was wondering if someone was gonna ask me to buy and ship.
