Best Buy Sucks!!!

white_s2k · 03-30-2009, 01:44 PM

My girlfriend actually works for Best Buy (she handles the inventory for one of their repair centers). And she says that their house brand, Insignia, is in the repair center more than any other brand by far.

I really don't understand the mindset of managers who treat their customers that way. He could have handled the situation so much better, and won over a customer for life.

Or a few 1000 customers.

Now that circuit city is out they are pretty much the only game in town (aside from regional chains). Not surprising.

Oh boo-hoo!

Now you can't watch the TV out near the pool in your beautiful Florida weather while working (and I use that term lightly) from home smoking cigars, playing with your iPhone and whatever else you "play' with out there..... no sympathy from me...uh-uh...none!

What time should I stop by next week?

Well, two days post the incident, new TV is up and running.
Glad I ended up with the larger one.
Much easier on the eyes.
Anyone for a herf at my mancave?
Here is the new TV hanging pretty.

Screened in patio with a pool, plants, and nice furniture sounds more like a Manuela cave...

I'll be up later in the week, only if you let me use the 30G facilities....

Manuela indeed but frankly, I have to take credit for the arrangements. She lets me take care of the outdoors stuff, including the trees and plants.
Amazing when happens when you age, and are married.
I was just realizing, I went to college and got a "Bachelor's" degree. Why the heck did I get married a few months later?

Bill, see the ashtray? Should tackle that project this weekend now that I don't have to write to Best Buy anymore.

So you don't have to live in two room shack in the keys?

We won't have to wait for you to turn your back to place cigars in your travel humi.....we can just hide them around the house for you to find later.
