In my 15+ years of shopping at Nordstrom, I just had the most frustrating experience at Nordstrom, ever. I meant to buy a petite skirt earlier in the week online, but totally forgot. Then it went on sale w/ ½ yearly. Of course, my size sold out online, and then I went to my local store during lunch hour today to see if they might have one. Petites had it marked down, but not Point of View. POV located a 2 for me to be sent, and I put it on my charge card. However, they were still full price in POV. I went upstairs and talked to Petites, who confirmed that POV should price match the petite price. I brought down the 14P w/the sale price to POV. I tried to get them to price match, but they wouldnt saying that they have diff buyers. I said, fine, Ill go to Customer Service.
I got some newbie in CS, and she didnt know what to do. She talked to the POV manager, and the manager in the ofc of Customer Service. She said she would do it this one time as a courtesy. Since she was so new, she didnt know what she was doing, so another person stepped in. She made no big deal about it at all, and said she does it all the time. Since it was an order yet to be processed it wasnt in the system, so she said I had to call back and do it over the phone later. She gave me her business card though. I wasted so much of my lunch hour dealing with this!
I see it happen online all the time where regular sized items are marked down 40%, but petites is only marked down 25%, and vice versa. I thought that online chat usually honors the lower price.
I was really annoyed that they wouldn't even price match within the same store for the exact same item but a different size! A different buyer? I don't think the regional buyer would set the sale price given that it's the same sale price online. Has anyone else had this problem before?
does nordstorm only price match if the same size is in stock?
I've gotten shoes PM'd and the other online store only had one size (not mine) but Nordy's still gave me the other store's price for my shoe size.does nordstorm only price match if the same size is in stock?
just to double check, is there price matching available for clarisonics?

Not in my experience.![]()
I thought Nordstrom does not price match on designers goods. How do you ladies get them to do it?
