It no longer has the discount. Back to $249.99. Should have been posted as a daily deal if that was the case lasting less than 24 hours. FYI best price is at MicroCenter.

It noticed the price on Wednesday and purchased it yesterday (Thursday) and it was still on sale when I checked this morning. When I picked it up the the price was marked as $192.99. I don't think it was a daily deal. I will report it as expired.

It's been $192.99 on Amazon since Tuesday. The sale is either Asus-sponsored, or Best Buy and Amazon were probably matchng each other's price. Considering it's been $200 or less on Amazon since April, I bet it'll go on sale again soon.

I feel like upgrading my Blue Cave router and have been waiting for a good deal. I am wondering if we see $180 from Best Buy near the Black Friday. The Recycle & Save price would then be $153.

That would be pretty slick since it's what I paid at BB for the RT-AX86S a couple years ago.
