is this a Great price?

[DH Data Recovery]

yes!

[myb821]

yes!

think radio shack in store has the sane price

[DH Data Recovery]

I'd imagine its a Price Mistake.  The regular price for this item is between $65 - $85.
On a side note, this nook has a major flaw - no backlight

I did it is and it said they are open until 9 buy they closed at 8

I am on the phone with Best Buy, they will price match it if a local store has it in stock (for sale price) and a Best Buy within 25 miles has it in stock. You can only use in-store pick up. I just got the confirm from chase, total is $21.74.
You can only order 1 at a time, but the rep i'm dealing with is making 2 orders for me! 
Edit: My second order just went through!
2nd Edit: I got the confirm from Best Buy

Rep told me they don't match Radio Shack. They referred me to http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Global/Low-Price-Guarantee/pcmcat290300050002.c?id=pcmcat290300050002 which list stores include in guarantee.

They told me the same, but then i read aloud the price match guarantee "Best Buy is dedicated to always offering the best value to our customers. We will match the price, at the time of purchase, on a Low Price Guarantee product if you find the same item at a lower price at a Designated Major Online Retailer or at a local retail competitor's store." He then checked if the store(s) near me had it in stock, and placed 2 orders.

no, i think he just checked availability in my area

[dovy2]

well.. radioshack is closed now, so I guess we'll see what he says

update: couldn't verify with store. wouldn't take online as a proof... so i guess I'll check radioshack itself tmrw

[DovtheBear]

tell him to check online

[Saver2000]

tell him to check online

I'm on the phone with them now. . .the rep is telling me that he's gotten calls about this today already, and since radioshack.com is OOS, he would need to call my local radio shack and verify that they have it in stock.

I'm on hold now while he's calling radio shack

I had the local radio shack ship all the available nooks around to one store for me to pick up. 

There were only 3 available in 20 miles
