Best Buy Employees

[Hotsauce]

I like to think of myself as someone with a pretty good understanding of most electronics these days. I love how when u goto BB and there is some snot-nosed 16 year old selling a $3000 tv to a clueless old couple. Some of their "selling points" are down right lies.

I bought a video camera from BB last black friday (I financed a $300 camera for 48 months!) When I went in to buy it, one of their employees tried to talk me out of the one I was buying for some other crappy model. He was making up all these BS statistics. I thought he was going to cry when I didn't buy his warranty though, lol!

I hate it when I go into a place wanting to spend 3 K and no one wants to help me. That's my experience with best buy. It makes me want to go shop somewhere else.

The last time I spent big bucks there (about 6K worth of home entertainment excitement), I made sure to have all my research done before I got there. I knew exactly what I wanted and just told them the model numbers of everything.

Why I shop at Fry's Electronics.

Well that and Bestbuy wants to charge you $19.99 for a USB (or ehternet or whatever) cable that you can buy at Fry's for $3.99.

We did the same thing. Knew what we wanted when we got there. Problem was we couldn't get anyone to help us, I had to hunt someone down.

Never heard of Fry's.

Not too many options where I live. :/

Best Buy knows it's about price. You'll fume about about the shitty service as you purchase your TV that was $100 cheaper than anywhere else partly because they don't pay commissions.

Fry's is a great place...unless you're a woman.

Imagine a huge store filled with electronics and men whose only lay has been their right hand.

Seriously. My ex got to the point to where she'd just sit in the car with the AC on rather than spend 15 minutes getting creepy stares.

They sell you accessories (cables, etc) for insane prices because they make a huge profit on that and pay little for it themselves. I knew a guy that worked at BB and I asked him about things like employee discount. He said they hardly make money off things like PC's, game consoles, etc, but make a killing off cables/warranties/game controllers, etc. He could get like a $30 usb cable for $5 with his discount cause that's all they might pay for it.

The HDMI cable thing is the biggest rip off, you can get it online for like 3.99, poor shmucks.
