Non-cheat here who got hit by best buy. I returned a Surface Pro and some other stuff -- they took it back but flagged me for no returns. So I stopped buying stuff there.
- fjsolwmv 9y agoDo they tell you "you are on notice, we won't accept returns from you anymore"?
- Domenic_S 9y agoYeah, my ban was temporary (120 days?).
- acct1771 9y agoOff-topic, but very curious: why'd you return the Surface?
- Domenic_S 9y ago- When I unboxed it, on first boot it bluescreened - The stylus' battery was dead out of box - Sleep/wake behavior was not what I like -- took too long for me - Bluescreened about 3x/day on normal use
- shawndellysse 9y agoI had a similar experience. I bought an open-box sound bar for my tv, got home and unboxed it to find that the sound bar was DOA and the serial number didn't match the box. I had bought it from a Best Buy about an hour from my home, and tried to return it, with receipt, to the Best Buy 15 minutes from home since I had bought it on a Sunday afternoon and wanted to return it same day if possible. I was told I had to bring it back to the original store since the serials didn't match; okay great Best Buy didn't do it's job checking serials when whoever had this item before me return-swapped it, but sure I'll go out of my way. I bring it back to the original store and they then tell me I'm on the no-return list from that time for 120 days. I've since stopped shopping at Best Buy.
- gascan 9y agoThat one's sort of understandable. Bad circumstance for everyone. Best Buy didn't do their due diligence, but you very clearly could have been the fraudster pulling the swap rather than the hapless victim.
