Thank you, MacMall

About 10 days ago I placed my order with MacMall for the Adobe CS Standard upgrade. It’s priced at $549, same as on Adobe’s site and elsewhere. I ordered with MacMall rather than Adobe to get overnight shipping for only $10 (and not have to pay the tax immediately). Today Macintouch pointed out that Amazon is selling the suite upgrade for 5% off ($523.99). I called MacMall and spoke to Jay, who confirmed that my order was due to ship next week. I told him about Amazon’s price and asked if they could match it, otherwise I would have to cancel as a $26 savings is not trivial. Jay put me on hold a few minutes and then came back and said that they had adjusted the price for me so I’m paying the same $523.99.
I’m blogging this for two reasons. First, to say “thanks” to MacMall for doing the right thing. My online order history with them goes back to 1998 and I’ve generally been pleased. And two, to point out the good deal at Amazon and ask if you do order to use this link to credit Macintouch. It’s a good site and they deserve the referral credit.
