JumpSport Black Friday Pricing - what's the best deal?

So I'm committed to buying the JumpSport 550 Pro, folding model. The base price is $499 and the bar is $89.
  • Today, Amazon has that model for $375.89, ie. 25% off. Is that the Black Friday price? (The bar is not on sale.)
  • I've been stalking Costco, and it's not on sale yet. Is anyone familiar with the Costco sale price? If and when it goes on sale at Costco, if it's the same price as Amazon - I may not wait for that. As the $60 membership at Costco will basically offset the price of the bar at Amazon.
  • Someone mentioned JumpSport will have a Black Friday sale. Do you think it will be at least 25% off? If not, then Amazon is the better deal.

Decisions, decisions ... I'm fairly certain as soon as press the "buy" button, it will be cheaper somewhere else - lol! Thank you for any tips/advice!

-Anita

NM. I found an earlier thread. The Amazon price is what it's been for a few weeks now. So I'll hold off for a few days.

Thanks Barb! Unfortunately, the Amazon sale price ended on Wednesday. JumpSport is having a 10-15% off (discount varies per model) but you can only use one code per sale.

FirmDancer - someone just posted in the Bargain forum that Costco has the 550fi for $399, valid thru 12/24/17.

edited to add: sale excludes the 350i.

Bzar - Thank you!! Also on Monday, I discovered Amazon Warehouse Deals, so I got a "Used" one and a "Used" bar for a total of $306. It's due to arrive by Monday. I'll check it out; if I'm unhappy with it, I'll return it and get the deal at Costco. Whew! what an experience this has been. But made possible by VF friends !!!
