Experience with Lowe's Pro Desk / QSP?

[LAX_Esq]

Buying a new home and want to do some kitchen and bathroom work. Anyone have experience with the Lowe's Pro Desk / QSP (Quote Support Program)? As I understand it, if you have a $1500+ order, Lowes can submit your order through the computer and an algorithm spits out a better price for each item based on its markup.

Any reason not to go through these programs? Looking to buy basic cabinets, quartz countertop, kitchen appliances, toilets, bathroom vanities, various fixtures (fans/lights). Why doesn't everyone do this?

On many of these items you wont get a discount as they are not overpriced in the first place.

Also, many people I know would price it out locally and at HD/lowes as a local retailer can have better pricing and service.

I've used them for a large order. Some things are up to 15% off, but many things are 3-7%. Depending on what you're buying, you can usually find better pricing and/or quality from the specialists. I went with them because the prices were close enough and the 0%/24 months made it worth it for me at the time.
