Future shop troubles

Go to solution Solved by DyGr00339,

*Update* My father was on a trip and picked one up while he was away in-store at a future shop

So in Canada one of the big box stores is future shop and I wanted to buy my blue yeti microphone from there because of the warranty service they provide (anything wrong you get a whole new mic) So online it said I could reserve it and pick it up in store, sweet. They also have a price beat promise and they will beat any other Canadian price online or in store by %10 and Costco (another big store a grocery store actually) had it for $100 cheaper so we did that it came to around $100 with the extended warranty and said it would take 1-2 days to get in (fine)So we went in today and they said wait another week (getting angry) and just 5 minutes ago I got a e-mail saying the store cancelled my order on me and if we dont do something in 5 days i wont get my money back! What should I do about this? order again? another place and pay more? I'm lost, help

Costco had the Yeti for $100 less?! That's insane! So it's ~$50?

Edit: http://www.costco.ca/Blue-Yeti-USB-Microphone.product.10350872.html?catalogId=11201&keyword=yeti&langId=-24&storeId=10302

 

Still a reasonable price, that's what I've seen it priced at in the US.

That's pretty pathetic that they cancelled the order. I have a feeling that they did it to save money, but who knows? That may not be the case.

Don't know beacuse i'm pretty ticked at this point I was suposed to get it sunday

Can you order it from Costco? I'm going to, that's a great deal.

 

If you don't have a membership, try to find someone that does and get them to buy it for you or something.

I dont think you need a membership for online and the only reason i wanted to buy from future shop was the warranty they offer

Futureshop (identical to best buy) changed their warranty program a year or so ago to actually make it work and they will actually replace products now! At least that's the situation with all the people I know that have tried their warranty (including myself).
