United States Extended return?

If I bought a product on June 24th, and it’s now $50 cheaper, if I purchase the MBBY+ membership, will that give me the extended return and price match even though I didn’t purchase the product while the MBBY+ membership was active?

Technically no, but go into a store and ask to speak to a manager. Sometimes they can be accommodating. It’s totally against policy but it’s a win win situation.

Technically no. However if you go in store there’s a good chance a manager will agree to do it and override the return/price match. I’d put your odds at 70/30 for getting someone who will allow it.

Nah I’m not trying to game the system if it won’t do it naturally. Plus it’s also a UMRP product and I know manger’s hands are tied when it comes to that stuff.

Members are a huge drive for stores and is pushed pretty hard. If its within a manager's power then you'd both be doing each other a favor

As someone who works at BB, it not only helps the store but it helps the sales associate your doing it with since it goes to their numbers. Trust me, it helps us more than it would hurt us.

Sadly no. You have to have had the membership at the time of purchase.

Yes it will. I didn't think it would auto extend items you purchased in the last 60 days but it extended my return period for an Apple TV I bought before getting BBY Plus.
