    Made a purchase through Best Buy with a Marketplace seller using a combination of CC and Gift card. Had to return Item. Marketplace seller was easy to deal with and refunded my CC in a timely fashion. Now, trying to get the gift card refunded / returned from Best Buy is like pulling teeth.. Do better, Best Buy! This will test me to purchase through / from Best Buy again.

    Bought the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless - Gaming Headset for PC and asked them to price match amazon price (which is store policy and saved me over 100$ ) unfortunately The assistant manager Sara didnt like that and was salty about it. The attitude was horrible. Never a positive transaction at this location

    Some of the worst customer service I've ever experienced. From geek squad to best buy, they have something broken in their system which makes it extremely difficult to get quality service. I dropped my computer off 2 months ago as it was under warranty... it took them 2 months to realize they couldn't fix it. It also seems like their is no internal communication that goes on what so ever. I'd call the store for an update, and they would tell me something different than the geek squad people. I was told they had the part, then they didnt have the part, and was told by multiple parties it just came in, weeks apart. Get your shit together

    They used to have amazing service here and would be offered help right away. Now it is impossible to get help. They don't approach you and often seem to avoid customers. There is never a cashier there and one time I waited 5 minutes at the cash then had to go find an employee just to get cashed out.
