Don't shop there any more, I bought one item in 3 years, my Samsung LCD which I got on sale. Used to go there all the time for games and movies but now there is no PC shelf and I can join a DVD club and catch up on the movies once a year.

yeah at bestbuy's 'normal' prices... i was in there the other day and they are still as expensive if more expensive than hd online and like you said they are all somewhat outdated compared to what you buy online. bestbuy should take a page from microcenter's play book

I guess my jokes about "Worst Buy" are valid based on what's been said here.

I guess my jokes of "Worst Buy" aren't too far off.

Am I the only one that absolutely loves the guy for saying :

"But Chukumba also points out that the buyout isn't a "game changer," that Best Buy still has the same challenges it faced 24 hours ago. "Fairly weak product cycle particularly in flat-panel TVs, increasing competition from Amazon, probably too much retail square footage," he said."

For those of you who have posted that you "look at Best Buy and buy online" I urge you to at least occasionally buy from BB too. If not then you may not have a place to "look" before too long.

I never go to Best Buy. Comp USA has prices competitive to online prices and the store is a lot cooler. Plus it has the old school factor.

I didn't realize Best Buy Mobile was a joint operation. Either way, if you shop around you can find better prices elsewhere.
