Simply pay for the entire cost of the product with your credit card and if, within 30 days of the date you purchased the product, you see either a printed advertisement or non-auction internet advertisement for the same product (same model number and same model year) by the same manufacturer, in the same market*, for a lower price, Visa will refund you the difference, up to USD 500 per item – Maximum of USD 2,000 per account per 12-month period. The price difference must be above USD 25 this coverage to apply. Conditions apply.

Same market is defined as same country and within 100 kilometers of point of purchase. For the US, it will mean the 48 contiguous states. Alaska, Hawaii and other US territories will be treated separately.
