Fry's sells defective components back to customers in the hope they'll be too lazy to return it (they do have an extremely liberal return policy, though -- it'll just go back on the shelf for someone else to buy).
- aggieben 19y agoI've never had a problem with components from Fry's. Just gotta choose the right brands. Patriot and Kingston are decent brands that usually gets sold in good sales (I think I got a couple of nice Kingston 2 GB sticks of for $35 each recently). Sometimes you'll see a great deal on Crucial as well. I should also add, that your theory doesn't even make sense - the kind of people who buy components from Fry's are exactly the kind of people who will return stuff. What they are doing is just typical retail loss-leading sales in hopes that you'll buy that new DVD-burner* with a higher markup while you're in there. * or whatever
