Rain checks were not allowed. Most of the folks I've come across at Best Buy would starved to death on commission.

They're really not interested in a sale, what they're interested in is selling you a service contract with their Geek Squad, extended warranties and other bullshit. They're more knowledgeable about those things than the products they sell. Also, things like cables, SD cards and other peripherals are ridiculously overpriced there. Much smarter to pick those things up at Sprawlmart or the equivalent.<br /><br />Send your rant to corporate Best Buy. See what you get.Amihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08353667980806676067noreply@blogger.com
