Best Buy Can Kiss My Ass!

Mar 08, 2006 21:28

Ok, so I got three DVDs as gifts, and unfortunately I already have those DVDs so I had intended to exchange them. So, I walk my happy hiney into Best Buy, explain that my obviously brand new, unopened DVDs were a gift and I just want to exchange for store credit so I can get some new DVDs. Imagine my dismay when the girl looks at me like I have ( Read more... )

Not gonna lie, I was pulling for Chloe.

Ultimately, I'm just glad that Santino didn't win. Homeboy shouldn't have made it into the top three.

I too was hoping for Chloe to win, and I'm really glad she did. However, after seeing the collections, I was a bit surprised not to see Santino in the top spot. His stuff looked good - but apparently they didn't want him to tone down, even though all season they've been saying he was over the top.

As for Best Buy, they rival Sprint for the worst customer service I have experienced as well. Unfortunately, our Circuit City carries a pitiful selection of DVDs, and no CDs at all. The only other in-town options are Borders and FYE, both super expensive. Lately I buy most music/movies online, or at Target if they have what I want.

Do you have a Borders Rewards card? You can save a ton on DVDs and CDs that way.

Daniel V all the way, baby!

I think they figured he'd make it on his own, since he's so incredibly talented, and just out of design school. This seems like Chloe's big chance, but Michael Kors will make sure Dan has many more opportunities, I'm sure. They just wanted him to become a little more seasoned. I still liked his stuff best; some of Chloe's looked like prom dresses.

The service at Best Buy is appalling. I once walked in with the intention of buying a DVD, but when three different employees approached me four times within less than a minute to "assist" me, I put the DVD back and decided, "Best Buy, you may consider yourself boycotted." One of the employees had aggressively tried to shake my hand and asked me my name (without giving his), I presume so he could then use my name twelve times in a sentence, as these people are sometimes trained to do. I replied (sternly), "Mr. Cooper." He was speechless. He was expecting a first name, of course, and wasn't sure how to respond. I enjoyed that. I suppose they are only doing what the corporation is forcing them to do, and maybe they thought I was a secret shopper, but I cannot reward such behavior for any reason, if only because it encourages corporations to engage in bad behavior and subject their hapless employees to insane customer service policies.
