Subject: Price match request

Dear BrightBox Support,

I am writing about Order #BB-48192 or an item I am considering purchasing. I found a lower price on April 28, 2026.

The price-match context is: I found the same model listed for a lower price from another retailer and can provide the link or screenshot.

Would you be able to offer a price match or partial refund for the difference? I can provide a link or screenshot if helpful.

Thank you,
Jordan Lee
