Or not. Best Buy sucks, at least any I've been in have and I can't imagine anyone getting excited as hell to buy anything there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796959957155457877.post-24881240627770392412008-12-15T21:17:00.000-05:002008-12-15T21:17:00.000-05:00I was going to say exactly what Pistols said, exce...I was going to say exactly what Pistols said, except not as funny or long-winded.<BR/><BR/>Basically, what we're saying is that Best Buy employees are not a helpful lot.BeckEyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00119780316809151433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796959957155457877.post-31986440051336924352008-12-12T19:18:00.000-05:002008-12-12T19:18:00.000-05:00I actually thought the ads were kind of funny. But...I actually thought the ads were kind of funny. But probably not for the reasons the agency had in mind... <BR/><BR/>Best Buy has the worst customer service I've ever run into. Sadly it's the only place in Sioux City where you can buy some of this stuff, so you gotta just sorta roam around the store, looking in vain for a clerk to help you. And invariably when you do manage to track down a clerk (who will then have that "you're bothering me, customer, can't you see I'm way too busy texting my cousin's girlfriend to be wasting time with you" look on his face, that clerk will ALWAYS say, "I'm sorry, this isn't my department. I'll have to go find Fred. He'll help you." So now you're standing there staring at hard drives, waiting for Fred, not realizing that "Fred" is code for "no one in the store cares about your needs, peon, so you just stand there until you get tired of wasting your time and go home to buy what you need online which is what you should have done in the first place".Chris the Hippiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434819898396611160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796959957155457877.post-1013820981582273352008-12-12T14:00:00.000-05:002008-12-12T14:00:00.000-05:00Whenever I see commercials like these I wonder if ...Whenever I see commercials like these I wonder if there are people who see this sort of thing and bust out in fits of uncontrollable laughter.

There are no Best Buy employees to be found anywhere. If you have a question about a television set, or DVD player, or why you find yourself watching more and more gay porn, you could wait hours to years without ever seeing a blue-shirted person.<BR/><BR/>Every single one of their employees seems to be in the five-foot by five-foot cell phone section and by the door to greet you/make sure you're not stealing crap.
