Also saw them in Houston. Talked to CS and they refused to price adjustment because my order was in May. I mentioned grabbing one and returning but they just told me to do that.

From what I understand, returned AC will go to the junk yard so I did not want to do that. Costco should be more flexible to let the customer save $50 instead of wasting the whole unit at $280.
Just buy it then return it using your old receipt.
Agree. Throwing returned unit to Junk is very bad

We have a heat wave in process - makes sense to keep it at $399 - people will be desperate to buy and not factor in price Applause

I think you can track the price yourself. If the in-store is on sale, the online price on costco.com will be $419.99, otherwise $499.99.

In-store clearance, online full price. Need to check your local stores; the website won't tell you.

Does it both cools and heats?
Cools only, and does a mighty fine, quiet job. Bought two at $320. One had a loose, clanking fan. Returned and got another. Real pain to install with adjustable bracket and numerous foam insulators to measure and cut. Three holes to drill, in side window moldings and into sill. Okay if you don't mind holes there and have wood sills. Manipulating a 63# unit no laughing matter.

Thanks. Got one, condenser fan makes rubbing noise at low speeds but goes away as it revs up. Its installed without screws because the mounting frame perfectly jammed between window frame! Lol
Only gaps are at rotating arms that grab foam and unit itself. Not sure what's the purpose of the rotating arms.

I saw systems like this in Europe as long as 25 or 30 years ago, made by Delonghi. I thought it was a great idea when I saw it and I don't know why they never caught on in the U.S. Could be the fact that it would fall under the rules requiring an outside electrical disconnect.

I did find a few online. Here's one in the UK:
https://amazon.co.uk/dp/B00O4D90L4

And here's one sold in the U.S. and marketed for RVs:
https://amazon.com/dp/B0BSB2HGTX/

GE (and some others) sells a unit like this. The problem is that since it sits below the window it needs a condensate pump to get the water out and people complain that this pump is loud. See:
https://amazon.com/dp/B09HF5VMV6/
Clarification - GE unit is equally quieter inside. The condensation pump is outside and it's louder only outside.

On the website you select the store you want to check, if it is 499.99 that means the store is not on clearance, if it shows 419.99, the store is possible on clearance price. Go try the zip code ppl provided here. Just trying to save ppl some gas.

You want to save gas, you call the local warehouse or call corporate/use their chat support at costco.com. That's the only way to know the price locally. And even if you go there, even if it still says $399.99, until you scan it, you don't know for sure if they just haven't updated the sign yet for the clearance price.

Online full price is $419.99, has been all year (for me), in store was $399.99. When it was on sale $80 off, those were $339.99 and $319.99 respectively.

Now, it's $419.99 online still (full price), but I snagged one on Monday for $279.97. A friendly chat agent confirmed the clearance price for me and qty on hand, so I knew it wasn't a wasted trip.

Got the last one in little rock 😅. Hopefully this isn't a pain to install.

Is there a way to check if my store has it at this price? My sister has a membership and I do not; I have been considering getting one though and would for this (and other future purchases of course). I tried to look online and it doesn't show inventory for my store; also I do not think I can go and look for myself without a membership :/
