& LOL at the above post ebacon!

Sigged for sure.

indeed they are, kinda like the new one at tempe, though a lot more standing room in that one then at the fry's. Kinda angry though since they moved the drink cooler back so gotta get out of line to get a rockstar or full throttle, lame

I do know that BB has sensors on their entrances that count the number of people that come in, and then calculate revenue per person. They do not have sensors on the exits though. So if you like the store/manager go in the exit. If you don't then go in and out the entrance several times and don't buy anything.

WorstBuy and there scammer squad? they are evil they nitpick you, and don't even know what they are talking about. I went about a week ago, a lady was asking the difference between a router and a wireless card the employee helping her told her the wireless card was a newer model. We also went to buy a router, they seemed to have only the over kill hardwear out, we asked if they had anymore and a couple isles down they had there so called over stock section. They had pleanty of space in the other isles... THEY SCAM YOU I SAY!

I refuse to shop at Best Buy. When you are just trying to look around the employees badger you to death about their products and half of the time they don't even know what they are talking about. Where to start with Geek Squad good god. They are running a scam and should be shut down. Their prices are insane and they just try to take advantage of people. I do enjoy prank calling them though.

wow your best buy sucks, all the ones here they avoid you as much as possible. i had a teacher aid that had worked at one and the reason it probably seems they bother the crap out of you is someone in the department (i.e. music, movies, games etc.) is supposed to greet you within 30seconds of you starting shopping in that zone.

I haven't noticed at my local Best Buy, but it's well known in the DoD:S server that I am an avid EDM fan. 8)

The one in Fayetteville has PC games (along with PC software) in the upper right corner. Console games and accessories are in the upper right side of the middle area. The entire left side of the middle area is devoted to music.

I haven't checked the new Rogers store. I'll take a look when I get a chance.

Here in CS, TX it hasn't changed yet, we still have video games taking up the very center right of the store and music slightly in front and left center. It looks something like:

Stuff Stuff Stuff Stuff Stuff Stuff Stuff Bathrooms Stuff

Our bestbuy used to have a whole isle that was one long shelf for PC games right in the middle of the store.

They took out half of it.

Bestbuy is only a couple of miles away so I stop by regularly, however if you dont catch something on sale its not a good deal. And none of them ever know what they are talking about... Back on topic console games are in far right corner computers straight back, pc games in between. Music front left, movies front right. Front right back to games TVs dvd players stereos and speakers far back left is car stereo and left is appliances. Which are reasonably priced compared to the nearest appliance store.
