I am baffled. How is getgoing showing a better fare (by $200) than what I see on Kayak or Orbitz. I don't believe that airline will give a special fare to one company. Any explanation will be really helpful? Is there any other way I can get the same fare that getgoing.com is offering?

www.getgoing.com. Seems to give you pretty significant discounts (about $200 for the flights I was looking at) as long as you are flexible on destination. Seems relatively straightforward:
+ pick two destinations
+ pick pretty much exact flights to the two destinations (I know my arrival / departure times within ~30 mins, so can almost guess the airline)
+ pay
+ they show you which of the two destinations you chose you're going to (incl exact flight times and airline)
I had some extra time over labour day so I tried for something out of SFO - I was in a mileage-earning fare bucket on UA, and my EQM isn't that bad.
Has anyone else tried them out with positive/negative experiences?
