Besybuy Rant..........Don't buy a computer from there

so is this preinstalled software itemized on the tag or do they spring it up on you when you decide which laptop you want?

 

This would explain some of the problems of the SUNY system -- selling off campuses at Besy Buy.

I only shop at Nessy Buy.

 

Urgency.

That's my reasoning at least. Computer parts I always get from Newegg though.

 

I would not go to Worst Buy because of many reasons, but one of them is the fact that they re-box returned items and just sell 'em again as new merchandise.

They all such but I do miss Circuit City, I thought they offered much better service and were more trustworthy than their counterparts.

 

everyone knows best buy sucks balls. Everything is marked up to an insane level and their return policy sucks balls.

 

again i think a lot of this depends on the people working at the store...back in college I worked at a circuit city where the managers were complete asses and would do anything to rip a customer or even their own employees off. It was frustrating for me to see cuz I dont like to lie to people when they ask me if its something they honesty do or dont need.

Best buy is the same I've gotten crap customer service there before at one location and way over the top service from a different location.


i really just get like video games/blu-rays at best buy (or circuit city when it was still a B&M store) actual electronic equipment I buy online or at a different retailer

 

Word.

I got that Clutchfans discount.

 

i might have to take you up on this.

 

2 pages and nobody has mentioned "Besybuy?"

Wow. WOW.

 

That's just lazy.

 

I don't really mind pre-installed software as long as it makes the computer less expensive. All I have to do is reformat, or in my case, just install a clean Windows 7 since I got my HP when it had Vista.

I consider myself a pretty hardcore techie though. I understand that some casual people who don't know anything about computers can wonder why their brand new laptop takes so long to start up.

 

The best way to get a cheap laptop is to buy one off ebay that somebody never bothered to check the information on.

Make sure it is still under the standard 1 year warranty.

Return the b*stard, voila.


Thats how I got my current laptop. Paid 135 bucks for it, it had some display problems, sent it into Acer and they replaced the screen for free.

 

Worst Buy sucks. I miss Circuit City. Stupid Economy.

 

I went to Best Buy to buy a laptop and the price was $666. How many of you guys have laptops that are $665 even? Not a rant per se... it's just a weird price and I wanted to share that with you guys.

 

Well, I hate the HP laptop that I bought from BestBuy and I will never buy anything other than an apple again BUT it came ready to use they just offered to take all the trial stuff off for a fee & I said no thanks suckas.

Bestbuy is cool to buy Disney Movies from on the first day they come out, because you get something free with it most of the time! <3

 

Dell dude, Dell.

 

i have exactly 666 friends that have had that happen to them. i was thinking about making a thread on here about it actually.
