Their policy is "if you find a current lower price on an identical, in-stock item from any retailer, we will match the price and beat it by 10%". Now I haven't used Costco before in a HD price match but in store I've successfully had HD price match with B&H, Amazon, and Best Buy. So it's worth a shot to try to use this Costco price of $999 and then have them price match it with an additional 10% off. With tax and free shipping, you'd be in well under a grand. Either way, this $999 Costco price is the best I've seen.

When doing an oil change, can one get to and release the rear end of the rocker panel plastic skirt to get to the oil tank drain plug with this lift?
On does one need to remove the skirt completely before lifting up the car?

I don't have a QuickJack so I'm just supposing but I doubt that, even with the outer rocker skirt removed, an oil change could be done without creating a royal mess. Even with chocks used to mate with the lifting pad points, getting a socket and ratchet wrench up to remove the drain plug would be a close fit and then, once removed, the oil would splash down on top of the QuickJack ramp. Has anyone devised a method to neatly capture and divert the oil into a drain pan?

To divert, I would guess you need something like this : https://formafunnel.com/
