Office Max advertises that they will match online prices. I noticed that Frys Electronics was selling a SimpleTech 1TB Turbo external drive for $70. I have a $50 reward at Office Max so I checked their website and found the exact identical item on their website.

They are selling the item for $170
I submitted a match request on their website and was turned down:
We do apologize, but products and services by third partyproviders are not subject to a price match. This item is a special order itemshipped directly from a third party vendor. OfficeMax thanks you for the opportunity of servicing yourfuture business and personal supply needs. If we can be of further assistanceplease do not hesitate to contact us. Sincerely, Sheila Satava

1-877-633-4236 This item is not described as a third party item anywhere on their website. This is just a convenient way to avoid matching the price. They can say anything is a third party item. I will be filing with Arizona AG
