Worst Buy
I personally can not stand them! Worst customer service ever.
Best Buy to close 50 U.S. stores, stock drops - Mar. 29, 2012 Hopefully the beginning of the end for them! I do feel bad for folks that will lose their jobs though.

Re: Worst Buy
first Circuit City and now these guys... have to admit, any store that sells monster cables should go straight the f out of business.

I do think Monster loves playing on hype- Dre Beats are selling like hotcakes... and if you know anything about audio, you know these headphones are just like their cables: overpriced and all flash. |

Re: Worst Buy
the fact that any store like that can stay open is beyond me. i find it quicker (and more helpful) to get everything online.
crutchfield is still open because of superior customer-service. places like best buy should take a hint.

Re: Worst Buy
The only thing worth going to Best Buy anymore for is their superior $5 bargain bin dvd's, compared to Walmart's. And that's simply not worth it for me anymore, the only time I ever go in there anymore is when I need something immediately, like a new charger cable or something. And if it's not urgent, it can wait, because their prices suck for the most part.

Re: Worst Buy
Kinda hard for any electronic retail store to compete with the likes of Amazon.com, TigerDirect.com, Newegg.com or Buy.com. I always find electronics/software cheaper on these sites than places like Best Buy.
