Wow Best Buy...organized people lemme tell ya

[aCiD]

Well me and BD lauren and my bro go to best buy today to get some ram and a new headset because my bro just started playin WOW, anyway, we see some K-Byte ram, cheap stuff who cares, it said 35$ on the rack it was on, with the K-BYTE name and # and everything , anyway, the headset was a Logitech something? anyway there were 4 racks! all said 20$ ALL OF EM! anyway, we take the stuff to the cashier, rings up the ram, 105$ and the headset 32$, we said wth, thats rong, so the lady ask's for a price check and me and bd go back there to see if there looking at the right one, anyway, we see 5 people around the ram tearing off the sticker and saying it was rong but we can see if we have the same ram, the lady says we dont have any like that, even tho, my brother picked up some and there were 10 more left that had K-Byte 256mb DDR... anyway, we say forget about and we tell em that the headset is rong too, some lady grabs em and tells up to follow her, to "prove" us rong even though she saw how messed up it was, so my brother gets 10$ knocked off the headset, lol, but this is the great part we said lets just grab another type of ram, so we get a 512 Kingston DDR Ram for "it says" 97$ with a 25$ mail in rebate.. we take it to the cashier, guess how much?! 155$!!! WTF! so we said wow, another one rong, so the cashier follows us to the ram section and grabs the price tag off the rack and takes up to customer support so while were there they find out that the rebate has expired, awesome huh? anyway they sell us the ram for 50$ with an "instant rebate" right then and there... although we came out with better ram and spending less money than we thought its just irritating to take up 3 items ALL BEING rong prices.. GRR anyway, just thought id warn you about that :P oh yea, did you know this that in recent studies Best Buy is only really making money with there warranties, forgot where i read it, think it was yahoo news or something ill find it and post it, but thats just kinda weird i think... lol.. anywhos :P

i hate that place. i think they should call it "OK Buy" or somthing. the prices are never the best.

[Apocalypse]

how much did you spend on the spell-check cd-rom? wrong :) love you bro!

[Swedish]

i think his "w" key is broken cause they cost to much to get a new one at best buy.

[Slayer]

Ok Buy, lol...

Yeah, that really sux. How lucky you are, acid!!

[LA_MERC_M@lACHi]

OMG! Let them do that here on Florence. /me goes off to see Madmax

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

had a problem there recently weith LOTR BFME, dumbarses wanted to charge $10 more for the DVD-ROm version, then the sale paper comes out the next week explicitly stating that both are the same price. It wouldn't have been that bad except for the attitude the bia had.

[LA_MERC_MadMAX]

I'm just keeping my mouth shut...

[aCiD]

really best buy is crap, they are all annoying people... grr

[LA_MERC_MadMAX]

well...they pay my bills...sorta...

just because you had a bad experience in one best buy - that doesn't mean all best buys are crap. at least as far as bby826 in florence in concerned, there are a lot of honest hard working people there just trying to make a living, doing what we are told, and we get the smartarse customers all day long that act like they just come in the store to make us miserable. just think for a second what WE have to put up with on a daily basis!

[LA_MERC_M@lACHi]

I know EXACTLY where you are coming from!

[-FA- ManiacalClown]

Best Buy pulling a bait and switch? Boy I've never seen that one before!


Also...to be absolutely sure you're looking at the right price tag, match the UPS codes on the tag and the product.

[LA_MERC_goose]

I've been to the one in Florence and two in Denver and I've never had a problem - and actually, to my surprise, the people at the two in Denver were more friendly than the one in Florence - scary, I know. =D

[LA_MERC_Cowboy_From_Hell]

Don't they by law have to sell to you for the marked price? Especially if the UPC codes match. Seems to me there is some law or something about that.

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

yup, if its' on the shelf at a certain price...that's what they have to sell it for.

[MindWerks]

Or they can just refuse you service and not sell it to you.

[aCiD]

not in florence they dont, if its not the same price in the computer as on the shelf they will throw the price tag on the shelf away, and say they dont have any in stock
